Indicator when in update task

[h_senden2]

Hi guys,

is there a way to determine whether a process is in update task ? Simular to SY-BATCH, but for in update task. I haven't seen something like that.

I have a problem in update task where a screen is called, and it is causing a dump.

Hi,

check

SY-UCOMM = 'BU'

Hi Pankaj,

i dont think it's the solution. Because the sy-ucomm is depending on the program. 'BU' means sometimes buchen in german (or save). And i must call the screen after sy-ucomm=BU for online programs.

Hi hans,

1. i just tested one case.

2. If we call a FM, in update task,

<b> then the system variable SY-CPROG

will have the value

RSM13000</b>

(since it is called by some system program)

3. If we call this fm in normal mode thru some program,

sy-cprog will have the program name.

4. If we call this fm thru SE37,

then sy-cprog will contain

RS_TESTFRAME_CALL.

Hi again,

<b>1. SY-CALLD</b>

2. it will be 'X' if fm is called directly.

3. It will be blank, if called in update task.

*Am I running in a update process?

CALL FUNCTION 'TH_IN_UPDATE_TASK'

IMPORTING

in_update_task = lv_update_process.
