Documentation

Definition

If several consecutive calls are made to the BAPI, BAPI IDocs can be processed in packets. This type of processing can be set by selecting the flag.

A packet consists of several IDocs. The BAPI is called with the IDoc data several times in the roll area. At the end the COMMIT WORK writes the data to the database. This improves system performance.
