Come back to calling program from Call Transaction

Hi,
From my program, i am calling a standard tcode :
                   Call Transaction           - sy-calld is set in called transaction which deactivates some buttons there.
                   Leave To Trnasaction - sy-calld is not set , but then I am not able to come back to the calling program.
Please tell me how should this be achieved.
Thanks

Hi, shalaxy s
If you do mean calling the transaction and being able to go back !!
You can use the following
For Example :  CALL TRANSACTION 'SE80' VIA SELECTION-SCREEN AND RETURN.
OR:  CALL TRANSACTION 'SE80' AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN.

  • What event fires when form focus comes back to calling form

    Hi,
    I need to capture the event when form focus comes back to calling form.
    I am using KFF in my custom form and want to perform a set activities when users presses "Cancel" button of KFF instead of "OK" button.
    I guess KFF screen is an another form which is being called from my custom form.

  • Query on retrieving data back to the program from ALV List

    Hi Group,
    I have a requirement to send the details of the selected data as an ALV list to the user.
    Then, the user selects either 1 or 2 or all or none back to the program from the ALV.
    Thing is that,
    1) when the user selects ( Icon ) to choose all the fields, they were not getting checked and in turn, I was not been able to read the records as checked in the program ( this is for All selection records ).
    2) And also, I am not able to get the records checked ( incase of the user selects all fields ).
    In short, I should be able to read the records which were checked and process only that records.
    please let me know if you have any queries on the same.
    Thank you very much in advance for the help.
    Regards,
    Vishnu.

  • Why do my text messages come back as MMS emails from Rogers?

    Sporadically I send an iMessage to family when they are not on WiFi
    And the reply does not come back as a text, but as a MMS email from Rogers.

    This suggests that one or both of you don't  have iMessage configured correctly in settings or you lack a data connection (cellular or WiFi) at both ends.  SMS doesn't use a data connection.
    Settings > Messages > iMessage > ON for both phones?  Were the messages sent to and from active iMessage email or numbers?
    Are either of you able to iMessage other iPhones?

  • Nearly new Laptop in for repair, comes back broken, no help from Lenovo.

    In February of this year I purchased a built to order Lenovo Thinkpad W510. It's a beautiful machine, and I was overwhelmingly satisfied for until about two weeks ago when the screen randomly went berserk, crazy flashing and horizontal lines all over the place. I called Lenovo support and was directed to take it to a local dealer, Express Computers. I did so the following Tuesday, as it was a long weekend, so even the day I dropped it off to be fixed I had already been without the use of my PC which is critical for my business.
    Express Computers told me that it would be ready for pickup in three days, and that they would call me when they had diagnosed the problem. They never called, so I called them and they told me they were having difficulties because Lenovo was saying the screen must have been physically damaged. I treat this computer like a baby, it doesn't even have scratch on it let alone any damage to the screen.
    I called Lenovo to inquire and they said they knew nothing about this, and I should have the repair shop call them. I did so, and the repair shop called me back and claimed that it was another department at Lenovo giving them trouble and but as a courtesy they would order the part and replace the screen anyway. At this point they explained that the reason they suspected physical damage was because some kind of metal bezel around the screen was all bent. I can only assume this was done during manufacturing, because it most certainly was not done by me.
    The next day, which was Friday they called the say my computer was ready for pickup. I had now been without my computer for 6 days and unable to conduct any business activities (I am a web designer and photographer).
    I took the laptop home, and it worked properly for about an hour before the screen went berserk again. I am now without my computer for a second weekend, and who knows how long I will be without it next week.
    I took the laptop back to the repair shop today and they acted confused, insisted they replaced the screen and suggested I should be given a new PC by lenovo.
    I was very happy with this computer, but unless Lenovo fixes this issue NOW, and apologizes to me for suggesting I damaged the computer myself, and makes it up to me somehow, I will NEVER purchase another Lenovo product, and do my best to ensure no one I know does either. 
    Moderator edit: Treat others with respect per the Community Rules. Removed a comment.

    Thanks Jimbo.
    I read your thread, although I don't think its gonna make a difference at this point. The laptop is in for the second time, and they told me it would be ready this morning and I just called and its still isn't done. Once the laptop is back in my hands I will be giving them a piece of my mind, and if its still broken this time I will be taking it elsewhere.
    I hate Macs, but the one thing I envy about Mac users is how easy it is to get them serviced. No screwing around will third parties to screw everything up.

  • How to handle the call transaction in method of a custom business object

    Hello all,
    There is a custom report " RPTCORAPP" for approving leaves . As per my requirement i have develop a copy of leave workflow and for approval process i have call  "RPTCORAPP" in Custom method of custom object. i have made a transaction for this custom report for approving attendances. I am calling this method though call transaction statement within method.
    Problem: while approving the attendance workitem is not disappearing from the portal. Problem is due to call transaction statement.
                   once workitem come to the user, user click on it. control goes to the report, which display all the leave to approve on
                   the portal.
                   If after approving/ rejecting attendance user close the screen.workflow remain in the "process" status.Control wont come  back after call transaction statement in the method.
                 At the same time if user clicks on back button inspite of closing the screen. it is working fine. workitem disappears from the portal.
    How to handle the scenarion. if after approving/rejecting, i want the control to come back to the NEXT STATEMENT after call transactionstatement in my method.
    Please help it out........:)

    Hi swami,
    thanks for reply. but i am not using BDC in my method. iam just calling a custom transaction thriugh statement
    Call transaction 'ZHR_APPROVE_CLINOUT'. This transaction directly run the report RPTCORAPP and display all the request.

  • Call transaction in ABAP Inbound proxy

    Hi All,
    I am processing transaction KKPAN in inbound proxy. As per my knowledge, there is no BAPI or other way of processing this transaction. I have recorded a BDC, and I am calling this BDC using Call Transaction in my Inbound proxy.
    The problem is, control never returns back to the proxy after I call this BDC using Call Transaction.  However, interestingly, If there is an error in BDC, the control comes back to the proxy. Any ideas, why it does not successfully update data using BDC in inbound proxy?
    Your inputs are appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Navdeep

    Thanks for you response Akshay !
    However, It didn't solve my problem. In my case, the inbound proxy class is being called successfully. The problem comes, when I use Call Transaction in the class. The call transaction works and returns error message, if there is some error in the processing; however, for when there is no error in the BDC data, the control never comes back after call transaction.
    However, if I use SPROXY to test this interface, by copying the payload of the message and using the same user (As in Comm Channel), I am able to call Call Transaction without any problem. The data gets created successfully.
    Now this is getting really tricky.
    Still looking for ideas

  • CALL TRANSACTION won't execute report, keeps returning to program

    Good day to you!
    I have the following code:
      CALL TRANSACTION 'FPO4' USING bdcdata
                              MODE   'A'.
    The last line in my bdcdata is to simulate pressing the Execute button (OK_CODE = '=ONLI').  However, instead of running the report that FPO4 is supposed to generate, it just comes back to my program and its selection screen.
    Please note that although I am populating data on FPO4's native Selection Screen, I am also populating data on a special "predefined selection," so using a simple SUBMIT has never been an option to me.
    Does anyone know how I can get FPO4 to actually execute vs. coming back to my program?
    Thanks -- as always, points for all helpful answers!

    Before calling the call transaction, put a dummy screen of the report output
    ' ' 'OK_CODE' '=ONLY'.
    *This screen name nad number should come in the SHDB recording..
    *Don't assing any OK_CODE to that screen
    Perform screen 'X' 'SAPMSSY0' '0120'.   "<< it should be your reports screen
    CALL TRANSACTION 'FPO4' USING bdcdata
    MODE 'A'.
    Actually, I dont' have this transaction in my systm otherwise I should able to give you exact screen name and number.

  • Call Transaction "back"

    Hello.
    I have an ALV report which has a hotspot in one of the fields.
    This hotspot must call a transaction and show some specific data.
    Problem is, when the "back" button is pressed on the transaction screen, the program comes back to my program, but instead of showing the ALV list screen, it comes back to the selection screen.
    Does anybody know how to fix that?
    Thanks a lot!

    Atish,
    The ALV I'm using is not object oriented.

  • Can we skip the first screen after call transaction has been performed?

    Hello Friends,
    I have written a program for INTERCATIVE REPORT .
    When i click on the link it needs to call transcation MD4C.
    I have written a BDC for calling the transaction and skipped first screen.Its working fine but the problem is that WHEN I TRY TO COME BACK TO MY REPORT OUTPUT USING(BACK OR EXIT OR CANCEL) BUTTONS THE CONTROL IS PASSING THRU THE FIRST SCREEN OF TRANSACTION MD4C and then its coming back to report output.
    Now i dont need the first screen of the MD4C to be dispalyed when i use the BUTTONS.
    That means i want to dirctly come to report output when i click (BACK OR EXIT OR CANCEL) BUTTONS.
    Hope the problem is clear.
    Is there any way?
    Please do suggest me.
    Thankx in advance,
    Sanghamitra.

    Hello everybody,
    Thanks a lot for the quick replies.
    The problem i m facing comes after the call transaction statement gets executed.
    when the statement gets executed i m able to skip first screen and goto the required screen in the transaction but WHEN I PRESS BACK BUTTON THERE it is showing the initial screen which i have skipped.I dont want this scrren to be dispalyed.When i press back it should directly take me to the report output from where i have come to this transaction.
    Hope i m clear now?
    Any suggestions.

  • 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
    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 &#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.

    See below example code :
    Call three FM : BDC_OPEN_GROUP,BDC_INSERT and BDC_CLOSE_GROUP.

  • 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.

  • Call transaction and session method

    Hi All
    what does the following phrase imply:
    <b>1. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement</b>
    and
    <b>2. what does sync and async processing mean in session and call transaction.</b>
    can an example be sited for the above?

    Hi
    Asynchronous Update – The program does not wait for the work process to finish the update. Commit Work.
    Synchronous Update – The program wait for the work process to finish the update. Commit Work and Wait.
    Asynchronous updating. In this mode, the called transaction does not wait for any updates it produces to be completed. It simply passes the updates to the SAP update service. Asynchronous processing therefore usually results in faster execution of your data transfer program.
    Asynchronous processing is NOT recommended for processing any larger amount of data. This is because the called transaction receives no completion message from the update module in asynchronous updating. The calling data transfer program, in turn, cannot determine whether a called transaction ended with a successful update of the database or not.
    If you use asynchronous updating, then you will need to use the update management facility (Transaction SM12) to check whether updates have been terminated abnormally during session processing. Error analysis and recovery is less convenient than with synchronous updating.
    Synchronous updating. In this mode, the called transaction waits for any updates that it produces to be completed. Execution is slower than with asynchronous updating because called transactions wait for updating to be completed. However, the called transaction is able to return any update error message that occurs to your program. It is much easier for you to analyze and recover from errors.
    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.
