Documentation

Definition

The access method may no longer be changed in the InfoPackage or DTP if it is defined in the DataSource as "currently used".

Use

If an access method performs a large number of generations when activating the DataSource, and these should only be executed if the method is used for loading, it is advisable that you decide on this access method already during maintenance of the DataSource, and then not change this decision in the InfoPackage.

Dependencies

Both adapters and parsers can set the indicator.

Example

Since the generations for file adapters are typically not difficult, you can change between the adapters in the InfoPackage. The indicator for the file adapter is therefore NOT set.

Web services, on the other hand, generate an external interface that is implemented by a remote system. This interface therefore should not be changed by changes to the InfoPackages; it should remain stable when the DataSource is activated. The indicator is therefore set for Web services.
