Documentation

Definition

Activation and save status of an object.

The status can be:

• New: New object that was not yet activated.
• Active: Active version of an object. All components of the runtime environment (ABAP processor, database interface, etc.) access this active version.
• Inactive: Object that was changed after activation but not yet activated again. In this case the runtime environment accesses the active version of the object. The changes only take effect after the object has been activated again.
• Partially active: If a changed object is activated, all the objects depending on this object must be adjusted to the change. The active versions of the dependent objects are activated again. If errors occur when adjusting a dependent object, it is marked as partially active (since the object is no longer correct). The activated object itself is also marked as partially active (since the dependent object could not be fully adjusted to the change).

The supplement revised shows that changes made to the object were not yet stored.

The supplement modified shows that the object was modified using the Modification Assistant.

Note: Partially active status does not necessarily mean that an object is incorrect. It only shows that at some time errors may occur when activating the dependent objects or when activating the object itself as an object which is dependent on other objects.

You can find out if the object itself contains errors with the Check function.
