Definition

The transaction status identifies a step as the first or last step of a transaction. A transaction is a group of logically connected requests. Usually, a business process is combined in a transaction.

Use

Dependencies

In some components, the start and end of a business process cannot be identified using the incoming requests. The term "transaction" must be redefined in these components, and the transaction status set accordingly.

Example

  • In the Internet Transaction Server, the business process cannot be determined using the incoming requests. In the distributed statistics records (DSR) of the ITS, all actions for a user within a logged-on period (session) are combined as one transaction. The first and last action within the logon are specially identified.
  • In ABAP systems, the transaction begins with the call of a new transaction, a preceding update, or Commit, and ends with exactly the same actions. It is also known as a Logical Unit of Work (LUW). The start and end of transactions are identifiable and are identified in the statistics main record.
