CALL TRANSACTION ... UPDATE 'S' and Restartable Update Request

Dear experts,
I have a program that calls a transaction by using the CALL TRANSACTION ... UPDATE 'S' statement. This transaction then performs a database update by using CALL FUNCTION ... IN UPDATE TASK statement. The database update may cause an error due to the primary key conflict.
One behavior that I notice of my program is when the database update raises an error, the corresponding update request in the update table log (SM13) will be flagged as error and non-restartable, eventhough the update module in question is restartable. Why is it like this?
To make my question clearer, I attach my transaction, program and update module below. They are very simple.
Update module:
FUNCTION z_121_15_update_module.
*"*"Update Function Module:
*"*"Local Interface:
*"  IMPORTING
*"     VALUE(IMP_ZSCARR_CUSTOM) TYPE  ZSCARR_CUSTOM
  INSERT into zscarr_custom values imp_zscarr_custom.
  IF sy-subrc NE 0.
    WRITE sy-subrc TO subrc.
    MESSAGE subrc TYPE 'A'.
  ENDIF.
ENDFUNCTION.
Subroutine in the transaction that calls the update module above:
FORM save.
  zscarr_custom-carrname = sy-uzeit.
  CALL FUNCTION 'Z_121_15_UPDATE_MODULE' IN UPDATE TASK
    EXPORTING
      imp_zscarr_custom = zscarr_custom.
  COMMIT WORK.
  LEAVE TO SCREEN 0.
ENDFORM.
The program that calls the transaction whose the subroutine above:
*& Report  Z_121_15_COMPLEX_LUW_19
*& Program that calls a transaction.
*& Called transaction(s): Z_121_15_CLUW_20
REPORT z_121_15_complex_luw_19.
DATA:
  it_bdcdata TYPE TABLE OF bdcdata,
  wa_bdcdata TYPE bdcdata,
  subrc TYPE char10.
wa_bdcdata-program = 'Z_121_15_COMPLEX_LUW_20'.
wa_bdcdata-dynpro = '100'.
wa_bdcdata-dynbegin = 'X'.
APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
wa_bdcdata-fnam = 'ZSCARR_CUSTOM-CARRID'.
wa_bdcdata-fval = '01'.
APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
wa_bdcdata-fnam = 'BDC_OKCODE'.
wa_bdcdata-fval = 'SAVE'.
APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
CALL TRANSACTION 'Z_121_15_CLUW_20' USING it_bdcdata MODE 'E' UPDATE 'A'.
*IF sy-subrc > 0.
  WRITE sy-subrc TO subrc.
  MESSAGE subrc TYPE 'S'.
*ENDIF.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Haris

What I mean is, for example, when the called update module in the code below issues a type A message,
  CALL FUNCTION 'Z_121_15_UPDATE_MODULE' IN UPDATE TASK
    EXPORTING
      imp_zscarr_custom = zscarr_custom.
  COMMIT WORK AND WAIT.
then, in SM13, the corresponding update task will be flagged as non restart-able, eventhough the update module itself is defined as restart-able.
This also happens in the case follows: let the code below is a part of a transaction program that calls an update module
  CALL FUNCTION 'Z_121_15_UPDATE_MODULE' IN UPDATE TASK
    EXPORTING
      imp_zscarr_custom = zscarr_custom.
  COMMIT WORK.
and the transaction above is called by a program by using
CALL TRANSACTION 'THE_TRANSACTION_ABOVE' ....... UPDATE 'S'.
Am I correct? This is my conclusion so far.

  • Call Transaction - Update Local

    Hi,
      I am using call transaction with Update mode "A".
      when i use this my work is being commited immediately.
      i want to know which UPDATE MODE i have to use .to commit my work later.
    and what should i write to commit at that point.(is COMMIT WORK) or any funtion.

    Hi.
    A mode itself indicates asynchronus update means donot wait for execution of Commit work...the mode u r using is correct..
    <b>Asynchronous update.</b>
    Updates of called programs are executed in the same way as if in the COMMIT WORK statement the AND WAIT addition was not specified.
    So..

    Hi all
    In my below mentioned code statement bdc call transaction eg33 mode 'A' is working fine in both programs main program and called(submit) program (highlighted here). But if I give mode 'N' in both called and calling program call transaction  the called program using submit is not at all called.

  • Calling transaction MB03, ME53N and ME23N in SRM (Suppliers Relationship M)

    Hi Experts,
    I would like to ask if there are any ways or possibilities that I can call the transactions MB03, ME53N and ME23N in SRM system?
    Those transactions mentioned are in ERP and there's a report program that displays the list of PO/GR/PR numbers in SRM and once the user doubled-click in one of those doc. numbers.. those transaction should be called..
    How can I satisfy this criteria? Is it possible even if those transactions are not found in SRM system? Do we have the equivalent of those transactions in SRM?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    I propose you to learn from this easy weblog.
    I have tested it and it works.
    /people/durairaj.athavanraja/blog/2005/08/21/running-your-first-its-webgui-application-in-sap-netweaver-04-abap-edition--nsp
    The only variant here is that you will have to doit in ECC or R/3 and then add this to a transction directly in SRM PFCG.
    Be careful, webgui transaction requires 10 times more bandwitch than sapgui.
    Kind regards,
    Yann

  • What is the diffreence between call transaction and session method

    hi gurus
    can any one suggest me
    what is the difference between call transaction and session methods
    in which cases we have to use teh call transaction and
    in which cases we have to use session method.
    thank you
    regards
    kals.

    CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
    CALL TRANSACTION
    BATCH INPUT METHOD:
    This method is also called as &#8216;CLASSICAL METHOD&#8217;.
    Features:
    Asynchronous processing.
    Synchronous Processing in database update.
    Transfer data for more than one transaction.
    Batch input processing log will be generated.
    During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
    CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
    This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
    Features:
    Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
    Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
    Transfer data for a single transaction.
    Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
    No batch input processing log is generated.
    http://www.sap-img.com/abap/difference-between-batch-input-and-call-transaction-in-bdc.htm
    Among the two methods call transaction is better compared to session bcoz data transfer is faster in it.
    Differences between call transaction and session.
    Session Method:
    1) Data is not updated in the database table until the session is processed.
    2) No sy-subrc is returned.
    3) Error log is created for error records.
    4) Updation is always synchronous.
    Call Transaction Method:
    1) Immediate updation in the database table.
    2) sy-subrc is returned.
    3)Error need to be handled explicitly.
    4) updation can be synchronous as well as asynchronous.
    2) ya u can use using the N mode no screen.
    3)u can't handle multiple transaction in call transaction.
    4) u can handle multiple transaction in session using the BDC_INSERT fm.
    5)When u go to SM35 u can able to see the error records.
    Which is best?
    That depends on your requirement. Both of them have there advantages.
    According to the situation u can choose any one of these.
    difference between batch input and call transaction in BDC Session method.
    1) synchronous processing.
    2) can tranfer large amount of data.
    3) processing is slower.
    4) error log is created
    5) data is not updated until session is processed.
    Call transaction.
    1) asynchronous processing
    2) can transfer small amount of data
    3) processing is faster.
    4) errors need to be handled explicitly
    5) data is updated automatically
    For session method,these are the function modules to b used.
    BDC_OPEN_GROUP
    BDC_INSERT
    BDC_CLOSE_GROUP
    For call transaction,this is the syntax.
    CALL TRANSACTION TCODE USING BDCDATA
    MODE A or E or N
    UPDATE A or S
    MESSAGES INTO MESSTAB.
    Take a scenario where we need to post documents in FB01 and the input file has say 2000 records (2000 documents, not line items in FB01 but 2000 records)
    In the BDC call transaction method
    We call the transaction FB01 2000 times (once for each record posting) and if the processing fails in record no 3 it can be captured and start with reocord 4.
    Eg: Loop at itab.
    call transaction FB01
    capture errors
    endloop.
    In the session method.
    We do not explicity call the transaction 2000 times, but all the records are appeneded into a session and this session is stored. The processinf of the session is done wwhenever the user wants it to be done. Hence the errors cannot be captured in the program itself

    http://www.sap-img.com/abap/difference-between-batch-input-and-call-transaction-in-bdc.htm
    http://www.sap-img.com/abap/question-about-bdc-program.htm

    http://www.planetsap.com/bdc_main_page.htm
    Batch Input Session method is asynchronous as told by others here. But the advantage of this is that you have all the error messages and the data for each transaction held persistantly. You don't have to code anything for processing them or writing the logs.
    But at the same time, the same feature can be disadvantageous if you need to react to an error or if there are too many errors to manually correct in a session. Since the session are created in the program and its execution is done seperately, you loose the trackability of such transactions.
    With a call transaction, what was a disadvantage above will become an advantage. Call transaction immediately gives you messages back and you can react to it in your program. But the disadvantage is that, if you have several hundreds of transactions to run, running them from within the program can be resource crunching affair. It will hamper the system performance and you cannot really distribute the load. Of course, you have some mechanisms with which you can overcome this, but you will have to code for it. Also, storing the messages and storing the errored transaction data etc will have to be handled by you in the program. Whereas, in batch input session, your program's job is to just create the session, after that everything is standard SAP system's responsibility.
    Ideally, you should do a call transaction if the resources are not a problem and if it fails, put the errored transaction into a session.
    You can decide based on the data volume that your BDC is processing. If data volume is high go for session else call transaction will do.The call transaction updates will be instantaneous where as session needs to be processed explictly after creation.
    Session Method
    1) Session method supports both small amount of data aswell as large amount of data
    2) data processing is asynchronus and data updation is synchronus.
    3) it process multiple apllication while perfomaning validations.
    4) in session method data will be updated in data base only after processing session only.
    5) system provide by default logfile for handling error records.
    6) it supports both foreground aswell as background process
    in bdc we use FM ...
    bdc_open_group " for creating Session
    bdc_insert " adding transaction and bdcdata table for updating database
    bdc_close_group " for closing Session
    Call Transaction
    1) Call transaction exclusively for small amout of data
    2) it supports only one apllication while perfoming validations
    3) there is no default logfile, We can explicitly provide logic for creating logfile for handling error records.
    we can create logfile by using structure....BDCMSGCOLL
    4) it doesn't support background processing.
    5) data processing is synchronous and Data updation is Synchronous( default), in
    this method also supports daya updation in asynchronus process also.
    syntax:
    Call transaction <transaction-name> using BDCDATA
    mode <A/N/E>
    update <L/A/S>
    messages into BDCMSGCOLL.
    BDC:
    Batch Data Communication (BDC) is the process of transferring data from one SAP System to another SAP system or from a non-SAP system to SAP System.
    Features :
    BDC is an automatic procedure.
    This method is used to transfer large amount of data that is available in electronic medium.
    BDC can be used primarily when installing the SAP system and when transferring data from a legacy system (external system).
    BDC uses normal transaction codes to transfer data.
    Types of BDC :
    CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
    CALL TRANSACTION
    BATCH INPUT METHOD:
    This method is also called as &#8216;CLASSICAL METHOD&#8217;.
    Features:
    Asynchronous processing.
    Synchronous Processing in database update.
    Transfer data for more than one transaction.
    Batch input processing log will be generated.
    During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
    CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
    This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
    Features:
    Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
    Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
    Transfer data for a single transaction.
    Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
    No batch input processing log is generated.

  • Difference between Session method and call transaction

    Hi,
    please give me the differences between session method and call transaction,
    briefly explaining synchronus , asynchronus, process, update.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Vijay Kumar
    CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
    CALL TRANSACTION
    BATCH INPUT METHOD:
    This method is also called as ‘CLASSICAL METHOD’.
    Features:
    Asynchronous processing.
    Synchronous Processing in database update.
    Transfer data for more than one transaction.
    Batch input processing log will be generated.
    During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
    CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
    This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
    Features:
    Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
    Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
    Transfer data for a single transaction.
    Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
    No batch input processing log is generated.
    http://www.sap-img.com/abap/difference-between-batch-input-and-call-transaction-in-bdc.htm
    Among the two methods call transaction is better compared to session bcoz data transfer is faster in it.
    Differences between call transaction and session.
    Session Method:
    1) Data is not updated in the database table until the session is processed.
    2) No sy-subrc is returned.
    3) Error log is created for error records.
    4) Updation is always synchronous.
    Call Transaction Method:
    1) Immediate updation in the database table.
    2) sy-subrc is returned.
    3)Error need to be handled explicitly.
    4) updation can be synchronous as well as asynchronous.
    2) ya u can use using the N mode no screen.
    3)u can't handle multiple transaction in call transaction.
    4) u can handle multiple transaction in session using the BDC_INSERT fm.
    5)When u go to SM35 u can able to see the error records.
    Which is best?
    That depends on your requirement. Both of them have there advantages.
    According to the situation u can choose any one of these.
    difference between batch input and call transaction in BDC Session method.
    1) synchronous processing.
    2) can tranfer large amount of data.
    3) processing is slower.
    4) error log is created
    5) data is not updated until session is processed.
    Call transaction.
    1) asynchronous processing
    2) can transfer small amount of data
    3) processing is faster.
    4) errors need to be handled explicitly
    5) data is updated automatically
    For session method,these are the function modules to b used.
    BDC_OPEN_GROUP
    BDC_INSERT
    BDC_CLOSE_GROUP
    For call transaction,this is the syntax.
    CALL TRANSACTION TCODE USING BDCDATA
    MODE A or E or N
    UPDATE A or S
    MESSAGES INTO MESSTAB.
    Take a scenario where we need to post documents in FB01 and the input file has say 2000 records (2000 documents, not line items in FB01 but 2000 records)
    In the BDC call transaction method
    We call the transaction FB01 2000 times (once for each record posting) and if the processing fails in record no 3 it can be captured and start with reocord 4.
    Eg: Loop at itab.
    call transaction FB01
    capture errors
    endloop.
    In the session method.
    We do not explicity call the transaction 2000 times, but all the records are appeneded into a session and this session is stored. The processinf of the session is done wwhenever the user wants it to be done. Hence the errors cannot be captured in the program itself
    Check these link:
    http://www.sap-img.com/abap/difference-between-batch-input-and-call-transaction-in-bdc.htm
    http://www.sap-img.com/abap/question-about-bdc-program.htm
    http://www.itcserver.com/blog/2006/06/30/batch-input-vs-call-transaction/
    http://www.planetsap.com/bdc_main_page.htm
    Batch Input Session method is asynchronous as told by others here. But the advantage of this is that you have all the error messages and the data for each transaction held persistantly. You don't have to code anything for processing them or writing the logs.
    But at the same time, the same feature can be disadvantageous if you need to react to an error or if there are too many errors to manually correct in a session. Since the session are created in the program and its execution is done seperately, you loose the trackability of such transactions.
    With a call transaction, what was a disadvantage above will become an advantage. Call transaction immediately gives you messages back and you can react to it in your program. But the disadvantage is that, if you have several hundreds of transactions to run, running them from within the program can be resource crunching affair. It will hamper the system performance and you cannot really distribute the load. Of course, you have some mechanisms with which you can overcome this, but you will have to code for it. Also, storing the messages and storing the errored transaction data etc will have to be handled by you in the program. Whereas, in batch input session, your program's job is to just create the session, after that everything is standard SAP system's responsibility.
    Ideally, you should do a call transaction if the resources are not a problem and if it fails, put the errored transaction into a session.
    You can decide based on the data volume that your BDC is processing. If data volume is high go for session else call transaction will do.The call transaction updates will be instantaneous where as session needs to be processed explictly after creation.
    Session Method
    1) Session method supports both small amount of data aswell as large amount of data
    2) data processing is asynchronus and data updation is synchronus.
    3) it process multiple apllication while perfomaning validations.
    4) in session method data will be updated in data base only after processing session only.
    5) system provide by default logfile for handling error records.
    6) it supports both foreground aswell as background process
    in bdc we use FM ...
    bdc_open_group " for creating Session
    bdc_insert " adding transaction and bdcdata table for updating database
    bdc_close_group " for closing Session
    Call Transaction
    1) Call transaction exclusively for small amout of data
    2) it supports only one apllication while perfoming validations
    3) there is no default logfile, We can explicitly provide logic for creating logfile for handling error records.
    we can create logfile by using structure....BDCMSGCOLL
    4) it doesn't support background processing.
    5) data processing is synchronous and Data updation is Synchronous( default), in
    this method also supports daya updation in asynchronus process also.
    syntax:
    Call transaction <transaction-name> using BDCDATA
    mode <A/N/E>
    update <L/A/S>
    messages into BDCMSGCOLL.
    BDC:
    Batch Data Communication (BDC) is the process of transferring data from one SAP System to another SAP system or from a non-SAP system to SAP System.
    Features :
    BDC is an automatic procedure.
    This method is used to transfer large amount of data that is available in electronic medium.
    BDC can be used primarily when installing the SAP system and when transferring data from a legacy system (external system).
    BDC uses normal transaction codes to transfer data.
    Types of BDC :
    CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
    CALL TRANSACTION
    BATCH INPUT METHOD:
    This method is also called as ‘CLASSICAL METHOD’.
    Features:
    Asynchronous processing.
    Synchronous Processing in database update.
    Transfer data for more than one transaction.
    Batch input processing log will be generated.
    During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
    CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
    This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
    Features:
    Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
    Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
    Transfer data for a single transaction.
    Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
    No batch input processing log is generated.

  • No locks realease with CALL TRANSACTION

    Hi all,
    I have a problem. I have a call transaction statement inside of a Loop. The problem is that it brings in the messtab a message that says that the product that I'm trying to modify is locked after each loop pass. I've tried to correc it using COMMIT WORK AND WAIT, WAIT UP TO 5 seconds, DEQUEUE ALL and modifying the update technique of the call transaction to S and L....but nothing helps.
    In addition, I have the same problem but instead of using a call transaction statement I used a BAPI ( BAPI_PRDSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2)
    I use the BAPI in this way.
    CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_PRDSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2'
      EXPORTING
        logical_system                    = wl_logsis
      SAVE_OPTIONS                      =
       COMMIT_CONTROL                     =  ''
      BUSINESS_SYSTEM_GROUP             =
    TABLES
       PRODUCT_LOCATION_VERSION          = t_location_ver
       PRODUCT_LOCATION_VERSION_X        = t_location_verx
       RETURN                            = t_return1.
    Please some ideas...
    Thanks.

    Hi guys,
    I've been trying in the way you said but I've not be able to solve the problem. This is part of the code I wrote before calling BAPI in order to get success.
    wl_tabix = 1.
      WHILE wl_tabix ne 1.
        CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE_/SAPAPO/E_MATKEY'
          EXPORTING
            MODE_/SAPAPO/MATKEY_LOCK       = 'E'
            MANDT                          = SY-MANDT
            MATNR                          = gt_outtab-matnr
         EXCEPTIONS
           FOREIGN_LOCK                   = 1
           SYSTEM_FAILURE                 = 2
           OTHERS                         = 3.
         MOVE sy-subrc TO wl_tabix.
         IF wl_tabix ne 1.
           CALL FUNCTION 'DEQUEUE_/SAPAPO/E_MATKEY'
            EXPORTING
               MODE_/SAPAPO/MATKEY_LOCK       = 'E'
               MANDT                          = SY-MANDT
               MATNR                          = gt_outtab-matnr.
         ENDIF.
      ENDWHILE.
    Please, some ideas for this because I'm still stuck on it.
    Thanks.

  • Call transaction doubt?

    hi experts,
    I want to call a transaction and to invoke a function code in the called transaction without any user interaction. Is it possible to use <b>call transaction "Tcode" </b>statement and pass a fuction code along with it. else suggest me how to over come this problem.
    with regards,
    James....
    valuable answers will be rewarded..........

    this is one more addtion of the CALL TRANSACTION statement
    ... <b>USING bdc_tab [bdc_options]</b>
    Effect
    Use this addition to pass an internal table bdc_tab of row type BDCDATA from the ABAP Dictionary to a dialog transaction. The additions bdc_options control the batch input processing. When a transaction with addition USING is called, the system field sy-binpt is set to value "X" in the called program - while this transaction is running, no other transaction can be called with this addition.
    The internal table bdc_tab is the program-internal representation of a batch input session and must be filled accordingly. The structure BDCDATA has the components shown in the table below.
    Component Description
    PROGRAM Name of the program of the called transaction
    DYNPRO Number of the dynpro to be processed
    DYNBEGIN Flag for the beginning of a new dynpro (possible values are "X" and " ")
    FNAM Name of a dynpro field to be filled or batch input control statement, for example, to position the cursor
    FVAL Value to be passed to the dynpro field or to the control statement
    Using the internal table bdc_tab, you can provide any number of screens of the called transaction with input and user actions.
    System Fields
    sy-subrc Description
    0 The batch input processing of the called transaction was successful.
    < 1000 Error in the called transaction. If within the transaction a message was sent, you can receive it using the addition MESSAGES.
    1001 Error in batch input processing.
    Note
    Outside of ABAP Objects you can specify the additions AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN and USING together. However, this does not make sense, because the addition AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN is desigend only to fill the mandatory input fields using SPA/GPA parameters, while the batch input table specified with USING controls the entire transaction flow including the display of the screens.
    Example
    Call of the Class Builder (transaction SE24) and display of class CL_SPFLI_PERSISTENT. The internal table bdcdata_tab contains the input for the batch input processing of the first dynpro (1000) of the transaction. Using structure opt, the batch input processing is set to suppress the first screen and to display the next screen in the standard size.
    DATA class_name(30) TYPE c VALUE 'CL_SPFLI_PERSISTENT'.
    DATA: bdcdata_wa  TYPE bdcdata,
          bdcdata_tab TYPE TABLE OF bdcdata.
    DATA opt TYPE ctu_params.
    CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
    bdcdata_wa-program  = 'SAPLSEOD'.
    bdcdata_wa-dynpro   = '1000'.
    bdcdata_wa-dynbegin = 'X'.
    APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
    CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
    bdcdata_wa-fnam = 'BDC_CURSOR'.
    bdcdata_wa-fval = 'SEOCLASS-CLSNAME'.
    APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
    CLEAR bdcdata_wa.

  • Call transaction ME23N

    Hi There!
    I'm doing a call transaction of ME23n and it's working fine, the problem is, and after googling it lots, I couldn't fine the answer, that the Help panel appears always and the user does not want that!.
    It there any thick that I'm missing to call the transaction without displaying the Help?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Chen! This is what I was after.
    For better details on the problem My first screen looks like this.
      PERFORM bdc_dynpro TABLES lt_bdcdata USING 'SAPLMEGUI'  '0014'.
      PERFORM bdc_field  TABLES lt_bdcdata USING 'BDC_OKCODE'     '=MECHOB'.
      PERFORM bdc_field  TABLES lt_bdcdata USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '=MEHELP'.
    Thanks again!

  • Call transaction for less than 10,000 records

    Hi all
    Is call transaction advisable for processing less than 10,000 records.
    I want to use call transaction for each record and if it fails, pass it to an opened bdc session for manual processing by functional consultants. At the same time, I have to write a report with successful and errored records. Is my approach the only way? Any other ideas are welcome and appreciated
    Thanks
    ricky

    Its completely safe.
    Check the return table for all message type E and then recreate your Error table and pass it to BDC open session and can be executed from SM35 in foreground mode. But what happen if there are more say 100 or 200 error records are there.Its not feasible to go and run each record in Foreground mode.Instead Display the error records in an editable ALV with the error message trap from the CALL Transaction return table and let the consultant correct then on the screen and download it, modify it to suit the upload procedure of your report. Then reprocess the file.
    Also, display the audit report based on that table.

  • After updating adobe flash and restarting firefox for mac, as requested, can't restore previous session

    using macbook pro with os 10.7.5, was recommended to update adobe flash while in firefox (22.0). did so, which required closing and restarting firefox during flash update. when complete, firefox opened automatically to adobe flash window and restore previous session was grayed out. can't figure out how to find and restore the tabs i had been using. related questions and answers don't find a solution. my settings are all normal and do not appear to have any relation to the problem. rather, it seems to be the closing and reopening of firefox associated with the updating of flash that nuked any memory of my previous session. is there a solution?

    i found my own solution to my problem! first of all, DON'T QUIT FIREFOX -- to be sure the current undesirable session doesn't become the "previous session". instead, open a new window (command-N). in my case, it opened to my usual default url and, while in that window (either before or after closing the first browser window that had opened automatically after updating adobe flash), the "restore previous session" option in history menu reappeared! clicked on it and, from then on, things just worked normally.
