Gil,

U can have a LOCK at the Table Level.

ENQUE* and DEQUE* are the general Function Modules(check out them in SE37) used for LOCKING and UNLOCKING. For every standard tables, we have these Function Modules given by SAP. For Z tables, we have create them using SE11.

Have a look at the following link:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/a2/3547360f2ea61fe10000009b38f839/frameset.htm

Thanks

Hi Gil,

You can use the ENQUEUE_E_TABLE function module to do that.

If it is ztable u need to create lock object and use it.

Thanks & Regards,

Siri.

Hi Gil

Look at the Function group /1BCDWBEN/SEN4 from se80

You will find a lot of Enqeue Deqeue FMs. Use one of the according your requirement.

In your case it would be appropraite to use ENQUEUE_E_TABLE

as mentioned earlier.

CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE_E_TABLE'

EXPORTING

tabname = tabname

EXCEPTIONS

*foreign_lock = 4

system_failure = 8.

i think this will help but do you have some idea how to do it in a smart way to 10 table instead of using this FM * 10./

Hi Gil,

See some info from Help.

<b>In order to be able to define SAP locks for a table, you must first create a lock object for the table via Development->Dictionary.

If the data for an application object is distributed among several database tables, it is often necessary to be able to lock these tables simultaneously. It is therefore possible to include several tables in a

lock object, althought they must be related via appropriate foreign key relationships. The tables involved in a lock object are also known as its base tables.</b>

In the lockobject you can give all the dependent tables.

Hope this is helpful to you.

Thanks & Regards,

Siri.

Hi,

try:

append your tab-names in an itab.

loop at itab.

 
  sptab-TABNAME = itab-name.
  sptab-VARKEY  = SY-MANDT.
  CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE_E_TABLE'
       EXPORTING
            TABNAME        = sptab-TABNAME
            VARKEY         = sptab-VARKEY
       EXCEPTIONS
            FOREIGN_LOCK   = 1
            SYSTEM_FAILURE = 2
            OTHERS         = 3.

  IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
    MESSAGE x001(00) with 'enqued' itab-name.
  ENDIF.
endloop.

Hi,

you may try this one

tables: z1---z10

begin of str occurs 0,

tabname(30),

end of str.

append your table names to str.

Loop at str.

CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE_E_TABLE'

• EXPORTING

• MODE_RSTABLE = 'E'

TABNAME = str-tabname

• VARKEY =

• X_TABNAME = ' '

• X_VARKEY = ' '

• _SCOPE = '2'

• _WAIT = ' '

• _COLLECT = ' '

• EXCEPTIONS

• FOREIGN_LOCK = 1

• SYSTEM_FAILURE = 2

• OTHERS = 3

.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

endloop.

Hi,

i did this like that:

-

---

FORM locktable USING P_ITAB_TABNAME.

CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE_E_TABLE'

EXPORTING

• MODE_RSTABLE = 'E'

TABNAME = P_ITAB_TABNAME

• VARKEY =

• X_TABNAME = ' '

• X_VARKEY = ' '

• _SCOPE = '2'

• _WAIT = ' '

• _COLLECT = ' '

• EXCEPTIONS

• FOREIGN_LOCK = 1

• SYSTEM_FAILURE = 2

• OTHERS = 3

.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

ENDFORM. " locktable

-

---

and when i'm runnning the program it crash and give me this msg:

CALL_FUNCTION_CONFLICT_TYPE.

what did i do wrong???

[Former Member]

Hi Gil,

Check how u declared the P_ITAB_TABNAME.

May be type is mismatching.

You declare one local variable like

<b>data tabname type RSTABLE-TABNAME.

tabname = P_ITAB_TABNAME.</b>

Pass the tabname to function module.

Thanks,

Siri.

P_ITAB_TABNAME should be of type RSTABLE-TABNAME

Data: P_ITAB_TABNAME type RSTABLE-TABNAME.

You don't have to lock each individual table like that. You can create one lock object including all those tables and call the ENQUEUE and DEQUEUE function modules at the appropriate times in your code. This will lock all of them at the same time. Others have pointed you in the right direction as to how to create the lock object.
