Use

You use this activity to make settings for lock management in BW-Integrated Planning.

In planning, transaction data is requested in change mode and therefore has to be locked for one user exclusively. The data records that need to be locked are described in a selection table. A data record is locked by the selection table when for each characteristic in the selection table, the characteristic value is in the data record in the selection. If the selection table is empty, every data record is locked. In this case it is irrelevant whether the data record exists in the database.

These selection tables have to be stored and managed centrally for all users and application servers. The SAP Standard Lock Server cannot manages locks that are based on selection tables. Therefore you make your own settings for storing locks that are described by selection tables.
