Definition

Simultaneous access by several users to the same data is synchronized in the SAP System using a lock mechanism. Locks are set and cleared in the dialog transaction programming by calling function modules that are automatically generated in the ABAP Dictionary from the definition of lock objects.

The function modules ENQUEUE_OBJECT (set lock) and DEQUEUE_OBJECT (clear lock) are generated by activating a lock object OBJECT.
