Documentation

Definition

The result is that the data within a Logical Unit of Work (LUW), changed by one or more BAPIs after the BAPI 'BapiService.TransactionCommit' has been called, is immediately available in the database.

The following values are possible:

  • ' '

    The command 'COMMIT WORK' is executed - the program does not wait, until COMMIT WORK is completed. When the database is next accessed directly, all the old data may still be able to be read.

  • 'X'

    The command 'COMMIT WORK AND WAIT' is executed - the program waits until the COMMIT WORK is completed. When the database is next accessed, the updated data is read.
