Need clarification reg set/get parameter and shared memory

[former_member182465]

Requirement : Need to store a generated no in to  a memory and when other runs the report then it should get that value and add 1 to it and update with new value. so that duplication is avoided and the next bapi call to create would be successful.

Solution : which memory should we use for this scenario whether set/get parameter or Shared memory or is there any other memory for this.

Any no of users can run the same report that is the complexity.

You need a number range. Transaction SNRO. Go to help.sap.com for details.

Thanks for reply Matthew. I know SNRO works but i want in different manner than that. Can i use shared memory buffer. What are disadv of shared memory buffer.

If you use a shared memory buffer, you'll need to write additional code to synchronise across the application servers. There's one shared memory per app server.
