Documentation
Definition
Selection on a screen.
You can select the object or processing type named by marking it.
Supplementary Documentation - DYNPCHOICE0001
Use
Processing type Direct generates a program which contains the required database changes. This program is executed immediately.
Procedure
Examples
Dependencies
Caution: If large database changes are involved, this processing type can overload the system. Therefore you should preferably use background processing with the options Background or Enter for mass processing if you have large tables or a large number of objects.
Supplementary Documentation - DYNPCHOICE0002
Use
The processing type Enter for mass processing enters the object in table TBATG, thus selecting the object for database modification. All the TBATG entries can then be edited, for example overnight using the report RDDBATP1. This option supports subsequent processing if a large number of objects is to be modified.
Procedure
The report RDDBATP1 should be scheduled as a backgrond job. It processes all the TBATG selections. The report can also be started online, but background processing is preferable.
Examples
Dependencies
The background program generates a log file which you can display with Goto -> Overview -> Background logs.
Supplementary Documentation - DYNPCHOICE0003
Use
Processing type Generate program generates a program containing the required database changes, without actually executing it. This program can be modified by the user.
Procedure
Examples
Dependencies
The object in the database is locked until the generated program is executed.
Supplementary Documentation - DYNPCHOICE0004
Use
The editing type Backgroundschedules a background job explicitly. This background job executes the required database changes in the background. The starting time for the job can also be defined.
Procedure
Examples
Dependencies
If larger changes are to be made to the database, SAP urgently recommends that you execute your database modifications in the background.
Supplementary Documentation - DYNPCHOICE0010
