Documentation

Definition

ZDM enablement requires mechanism to ensure that tables accessed by an AIM or an API used by an AIM can be locked. If explicit locking is required a function module can be specified that will be invoked right before the AIM is invoked to lock on the bridge instance the tables against production usage.

Use

The AIM for a transport object defines that it uses an API and this API defines a pre-lock function. If such a transport object is found the pre-lock method of the API will be invoked with this object before it is passed to the AIM.

The pre-lock function module will receive an internal table of structure E071 that contains the list of objects that will be processed by an AIM. It has to follow the interface and implementation rules for an AIM.
