Definition

Active message bundling - Yes/No

If messages are bundled actively then messages that are the same are only issued once.

If bundling is not active then each message is issued individually.

Example

In the approval report, several data records are selected and successfully approved.

  1. Active bundling:
    A message is issued: "Data was approved"
    The message is displayed in the message line.
  2. Non-active collection:
    The system issues the message "Data was approved" for each personnel number and date.
    The message is displayed in a separate list that is added to the end of the approval list.

Further notes

Bundling messages is useful for online processing.

Message bundling should be deactivated for batch processing to get a detailed error log (for example, automatic approval using the customer exit ACTEXP_APPROVAL).
