Documentation

Definition

You use this indicator to control whether the system is to search for entries in an internal table first (IV_NOBUF = SPACE) or whether it is to select the entries straight from the database (IV_NOBUF = 'X').

Use

The indicator can have the following values:

• IV_NOBUF = 'X'
  Data is not buffered: It is read straight from the database.
• IV_NOBUF = SPACE
  The system tries to read the data from the buffer.
  The system searches for the data in an internal table first. If the data is available in the internal table, the system returns the data it finds. If the data is not available in the internal table, the system selects the data from the database, updates the internal table, and returns the selected data.

Note

If the system reads the data from the buffer, you can not be certain that the data in the internal table is up to date.
