Documentation

Definition

This field is only required in connection with the clearing tool for data cleanup.

It determines the function module that you can use to release an object locked because of the clearing process once data cleanup has been completed. If you execute this function, you can decide whether this implies a reset of a lock flag, for example.

As an alternative to the list of function modules, you can implement interface IF_CLEARING_OBJECT (for actual objects requiring cleanup) and make this known in field TBZ5-CLASS_IF_CLOB.

The function module must obey a normed interface. This interface can be taken from the analogous method IF_CLEARING_OBJECT~CLEARING_RELEASE.
