Documentation

Definition

Specifies the number of locking attempts the system makes before the goods movement is refused as a result of a locking error.

Use

When the late block is activated, the system tries to lock the data in the material master record before the posting is started. This ensures that postings are consistent.

If you cannot set the block because another user is carrying out a posting for the same material, the system waits for a moment and then tries to set the block again.

Dependencies

A high value for the waiting time means that a lower number of goods movements is refused. But the waiting time for the user may be longer.
