Lock object vith forgien key

HI All,
I have 4 table that are related via forgin key ,i want to create lock object and my question
is if i need to create lock object for each table or just one lock object.
Best Regards
Joy

its simple dear,
the number of table you are updating in one go will form the tables in locking objects
for example in save command you are updating 3 table then you will lock three table
and just readting from master table then you will create a seperate lock for your master table ..
i.e you will put a read lock on your master table and write lock on your child table..
just put read lock on master first if successfull. the place the write lock on the child.

Error while lock object creation

Hi
When I tried to create a lock object, I get the following error.
Error: "Total length of lock argument for table XXXXXXXXX longer than 150"
I have 3 tables in which Table1 is the check table for the value tables (Table2 & Table3). During the process of deletion of a record from Table1 (CT) I need the lock tobe established on value tables and then I delete all the corresponding entries in value tables are also deleted.
Would like to know If there is any other std ways of doing this ? and
Solution to overcome the error.
Regards
Karthick

Hi,
I think the error is becoz you have given too many LOCK parameters in the lock object. the total length of the PARAMTERS of lock object should not exceed 150.
By default all the KEY fields will be taken as Lock paramters, so your table key's length is more than 150.
Also why dont you create 3 lock objects for each table and then use only KEY's of each table as LOCK PARAMETERS.
Then Lock T1 record first then lock T2 and T3 records, then delete records from T2 and T3.
Then you delete T1 record.
The execute DEQUEUE_ALL.

About lock object

I have one TABLE with TABLE MAINTENANCE GENERATOR
and it has also LOCK OBJECT.
Now I have adjusted the table by making some normal fields as primary keys
and regenerated Table maintenance generator ,
It seems to me lock object also adjusted( I am able to see the newly converted primary key fields in lock object( in se11 ) ).
Does the lock object automatically adjusts ????
If lock object adjusts automatically --> what about the function modules ENQUEUE_ztable DEQUEUE_ztable ? these function modules also gets adjusted ?
do I need to check the associated lock object impact ?
How can I check ?

Hi,
No need to delete the Lock object. Just remove the Table which you modified from Lock object & add again. You can add the lock Parameters manually. It will be drived automatically from Table key fields.
You no need to delete the lock object.

Lock object for KONV table/Cluster table ??

Hi All,
Is it possible to set Lock/Enqueue cluster tables or in my case table:KONV (KNUMV field) ?.
OSS provided some programs without locks so was hoping if I could add before performing data manipulation.
Regards,
Neeth

Hi Nameeth,
you can use generic lock object E_TABLE with function modules ENQUEUE_E_TABLE, DEQUEUE_E_TABLE for locking and unlocking with parameters table name and key field.

Lock Object (Not locking the table)

Hi Guys
I have a custom table ZDRAD same like standard table DRAD with an additional 'DATE' field . ZDRAD's Key fields are same like DRAD .

Hi Kanthimathi
That is numeric field . Please suggest me how can i check the lock.

Lock Object. Want to see if it's locked.

Hello to everyone.
I have got a question about lock objects.
There is a Z-table in abap dictionary. During the processing of my report some strings from this Z-table are selected. To select strings i use the SELECT statement. But there can appear the situation when two users ( or more) run my transaction, so the same strings can be selected and then processed. To avoid this situation i've created the lock object with cumulative lock mode ( 'X' ) for this Z-table and put the calling of ENQUEUE function into the code. To test the locking i' ve run my report under two different accounts in the debugging mode. And found that when the enqueue function is finished , and the current string should be locked in theory, this string can be easily selected with help of select-statement under another account. (Even when the transactions start with delay.)
How can i lock the string in the Z-table so that it could be selected only once during the earlier launched transaction?
Regards,
alex karpo.

Ho alex,
SAP locking is a cooperative locking model. That means that you have to care for what is possible and what is not possible. You may use enqeue module to set lock for key of every object selected.
If there is already a foreign lock, you should delete the entry from the list or table of selected objects (in memory, not in database).
Or do it as SAP does: If there is a foreign lock, the user is informed and the data can be displayed, not changed.
You can always check the lock by trying to set a lock.

Lock objects

Hi experts,
My requirement is to create lock for parent table and its child tables.Each and every child tables is having relation with the parent table.
When iam creating the lock for parent table, in this process iam adding the child tables in the list.But here one child table is missing in the log eventhough its having the relation with parent table.
Valuable replies will be awarded with points.........

Swetha.

Hi,
it may help u
1) Select object type Lock object in the initial screen of the ABAP Dictionary, enter an object name and choose Create. The name of a lock object should begin with an E (Enqueue).The maintenance screen for lock objects is displayed.
2) Enter an explanatory short text in the field Short text. You can then use the short text to find the lock object at a later time, for example with the R/3 Repository Information System.
3) Enter the name of the primary table of the lock object. All other tables in the lock object must be linked with the primary table using foreign keys.
4) Select the lock mode of the primary table in the field below it The lock mode is used as the default value for the corresponding parameters of the function modules generated from the lock object.
5) Choose Add if you want to lock records in more than one
table with the lock object. A list of all the tables linked with the primary table using valid foreign keys is displayed. Select the appropriate table. The lock
mode of the primary table is copied as lock mode. You can change this setting as required, for example you can assign the lock mode separately for each table.
Similarly, you can add a table linked with the secondary table just added with foreign keys. To do this, place the cursor on the name of the secondary table and choose Add.
If no lock mode is assigned to a table, no lock is set for the
entries in this table when the generated function modules are
called. You should not assign a lock mode if a secondary table
was only used to define a path between the primary table and
another secondary table with foreign keys.
6) Save your entries.
A dialog box appears in which you have to assign the lock
object a development class.
7) You can define whether the function modules generated from
the lock object should be RFC-enabled on the Attributes tab
page. If you set the Allow RFC flag, the generated function
modules can be called from within another system with Remote
Function Call. If you permit Remote Function Calls for an
existing lock object, you must ensure that the generated
function modules are called from within an ABAP program with
parameters appropriate for the type. You should therefore check
all programs that use the associated function modules before
activating the lock object with the new option.
8) Choose Activate

How to create a lock object in se11

hi all,
Can anyone tell me the step by step procedure to lock as well as unlock a particular object in se11 trns code. with an real time example.
thanxs in advance

Hi,
Lock objects are use in SAP to avoid the inconsistancy at the time of data is being insert/change into database.
SAP Provide three type of Lock objects.
- Read Lock(Shared Locked)
protects read access to an object. The read lock allows other transactions read access but not write access to
the locked area of the table
- Write Lock(exclusive lock)
protects write access to an object. The write lock allows other transactions neither read nor write access to
the locked area of the table.
- Enhanced write lock (exclusive lock without cumulating)
works like a write lock except that the enhanced write lock also protects from further accesses from the
same transaction.
You can create a lock on a object of SAP thorugh transaction SE11 and enter any meaningful name start with EZ Example EZTEST_LOCK.
Use: you can see in almost all transaction when you are open an object in Change mode SAP could not allow to any other user to open the same object in change mode.
Example: in HR when we are enter a personal number in master data maintainance screen SAP can't allow to any other user to use same personal number for changes.
Technicaly:
When you create a lock object System automatically creat two function module.
1. ENQUEUE_<Lockobject name>. to insert the object in a queue.
2. DEQUEUE_<Lockobject name>. To remove the object is being queued through above FM.
You have to use these function module in your program.
Creating Lock Objects
Procedure
1.Select object type Lock object in the initial screen of the ABAP Dictionary, enter an object name and choose Create. The name of a lock object should begin with an E (Enqueue).
The maintenance screen for lock objects is displayed.
2.Enter an explanatory short text in the field Short text.
You can then use the short text to find the lock object at a later time, for example with the R/3 Repository Information System.
3.Enter the name of the primary table of the lock object.
All other tables in the lock object must be linked with the primary table using foreign keys. There are also some restrictions on the valid foreign key relationships.
4.Select the lock mode of the primary table in the field below it.
The lock mode is used as the default value for the corresponding parameters of the function modules generated from the lock object.
5.Choose Add if you want to lock records in more than one table with the lock object.
A list of all the tables linked with the primary table using valid foreign keys is displayed. Select the appropriate table. The lock mode of the primary table is copied as lock mode. You can change this setting as required, for example you can assign the lock mode separately for each table.
6.Similarly, you can add a table linked with the secondary table just added with foreign keys. To do this, place the cursor on the name of the secondary table and choose Add.
7.If no lock mode is assigned to a table, no lock is set for the entries in this table when the generated function modules are called. You should not assign a lock mode if a secondary table was only used to define a path between the primary table and another secondary table with foreign keys.
8.Save your entries.
A dialog box appears in which you have to assign the lock object a development class.
9.You can (optionally) exclude lock parameters (see lock objects) from the function module generation on the Lock parameter tab page. This makes sense for example if you always want to lock a parameter generically.
To do this, simply deselect the Weight flag for the parameter. The parameter is not taken into consideration in the generated function modules. This parameter is then always locked generically.
9.The name of a lock parameter is usually the name of the corresponding table field. If two fields with the same name are used as lock parameters in the lock object from different tables, you must choose a new name for one of the fields in field Lock parameter.
10.You can define whether the function modules generated from the lock object should be RFC-enabled on the Attributes tab page.
If you set the Allow RFC flag, the generated function modules can be called from within another system with Remote Function Call.
11.If you permit Remote Function Calls for an existing lock object, you must ensure that the generated function modules are called from within an ABAP program with parameters appropriate for the type. You should therefore check all programs that use the associated function modules before activating the lock object with the new option.
12 .Choose Activate .
Result
When you activate the lock object, the two function modules ENQUEUE_<lockobjectname> and DEQUEUE_<lockobjectname> are generated from its definition to set and release locks.
You can find information about the activation flow in the activation log, which you can display with Utilities Activation log. If errors occurred during activation, the activation log is displayed immediately.
Pls reward points.

http://www.sap-img.com/abap/type-and-uses-of-lock-objects-in-sap.htm
Lock objects are used to synchronize access to the same data by more than one program.
General information about the lock mechanism.
You can synchronize access by several programs to the same data with a logical lock mechanism. This lock mechanism fulfills two main functions:
A program can tell other programs which data records it is just reading or changing.
A program can prevent itself from reading data that is just being changed by another program.
When accessing data records, the records just being edited by other programs can be identified by the entry in the lock table. Such an entry for the lock must define a number of fully specified key fields, that is either a value is passed for the key field or this field is locked generically.
To set locks, a lock object must be defined in the ABAP Dictionary. When this lock object is activated, two function modules (see Function Modules for Lock Requests) are generated with the names ENQUEUE_<lockobjectname> and DEQUEUE_<lockobjectname>.
If data records are to be locked, you must call function module ENQUEUE_<lockobjectname>. The values of the key fields that specify the records to be locked are passed for all the tables contained in the lock object when the function module is called. There is a generic lock if a value is not passed for all the key fields. The function module writes the appropriate lock entry (see Example for Lock Objects). If another program also requests a lock, it will be accepted or rejected depending on the lock mode (see Lock Collisions). The program can then react to this situation.
Locked data records can be unlocked by calling function module DEQUEUE_<lockobjectname>. The key values and the lock mode used to set the lock must be passed to the function module.

Select object type Lock object in the initial screen of the ABAP Dictionary, enter an object name and choose Create. The name of a lock object should begin with an E (Enqueue).

Custom Lock objects few question issues

Hello guys , i create a custom lock object for my z tables ( ZFISGC_MCFG ) which have 3 key field
MANDT
ID_EMPRESA
CL_MVTOSGC
now in my program doing testing i put a break point after the ENQUEUE_ of the lock object
then when i go to the sm30 and try modif the value of the entry using the same key i pass to the ENQUEUE_ fm i can modif and save the entry now i am now if that is the right workflow in custom object lock or if i am doing something wrong , this is how i can the enqueue FM:
call function 'ENQUEUE_EZFISGCOBJECT'
EXPORTING
 MODE_ZFISGC_MCFG = 'E'
 MANDT = SY-MANDT

You have to remember that SAP locks are logical locks, not physical. This means that whatever you enqueue is not physically locked from changes. You have to ensure that any program that tries to update your table, first checks these locks and stops the update if it finds that it is already locked.

Lock Object Confusion

Hello All ,
I have create one Module Pool program.it is having three t code for creation ,change and display. it is having two table Header and details table.
I have decided to go for shared lock as per requirement. That's why created on lock object with the help of t code se11 .
My problem is how do I call that lock object in program, because all the lock object are called using called function PATTERN. When I am also trying to do the same it give me message function not found.
Can some one tell me :
1 . How do I called lock object in my program.
2. Lock object : lock parameter are there ,Means the primery key of lock object on the logic of this the lock object is called.
3. would the same lock I can called for Create and change also. Would i work ?. At the same time other operation can perform.
Please provide me the ansower of the question.

Normally ABAPers will create the Lock objects, because we know when to lock and how to lock and where to lock the Object then after completing our updations we unlock the Objects in the Tables

purpose: If multiple user try to access a database object, inconsistency may occer. To avoid that inconsistency and to let multiple user give the accessibility of the database objects the locking mechanism is used.
Steps: first we create a loc object in se11 . Suppose for a table mara. It will create two functional module.:
1. enque_lockobject
1. deque_lockobject
before updating any table first we lock the table by calling enque_lockobject fm and then after updating we release the lock by deque_lockobject.

Lock Object Doubt

Hi I have created 10 Shadow tables and will run the job which updates the data to main data base tables.
So i am creating Lock Objctects for the tables.
Out of 10 tables 8 tables have common key which Business Partner (Primary Key). DO i need to create separate lock object for each of these 8 tables or one lock object is enough.....

Dear Chaitanya
Please find the below code
Add the following code in-order to create the table lock. This function module must be called before any
update takes place. If a lock has already been taken out it will display the appropriate message.
CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE_EZ_ZTABLENAME'
 EXPORTING
 mode_ZTABLENAME = 'E'
 mandt = sy-mandt
 KEYFIELD1 = "Value
 KEYFIELD2 = "Value
 KEYFIELD3 = "Value
* X_KEYFIELD1 = ' '
* X_KEYFIELD2 = ' '
* X_KEYFIELD3 = ' '
* _SCOPE = '2'
* _WAIT = ' '
* _COLLECT = ' '
* If exceptions are not used, message is displayed within FM
 EXCEPTIONS
 FOREIGN_LOCK = 1
 SYSTEM_FAILURE = 2
 OTHERS = 3.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* Retrieve message displayed within Function Module
 message id sy-msgid
 type 'I'
 number sy-msgno
 with sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
 EXIT.
ENDIF.
The following code will remove the lock for the specific table entries.
CALL FUNCTION 'DEQUEUE_EZ_ZTABLENAME'
 EXPORTING
 MODE_ZTABLENAME = 'E'
 MANDT = SY-MANDT
 mandt = sy-mandt
 KEYFIELD1 = "Value
 KEYFIELD2 = "Value
 KEYFIELD3 = "Value
* X_KEYFIELD1 = ' '
* X_KEYFIELD2 = ' '
* X_KEYFIELD3 = ' '
* _SCOPE = '3'
* _SYNCHRON = ' '
* _COLLECT = ' '

LOCK OBJECT EXAMPLE

Dear All ,
I would like to know how to use the lock objects in module pool programming . I know that it has to be used when you are updatinng the data . But confused about how to implement . Please help me .

You simply call the assocaited function module ENQUEUE_<lock object name> and pass the key values of the table, then update your table, and call the associated DEQUEUE_<lock object name> function module to release the lock.
Regards,
Rich Heilman

Lock Object Parameters

Hi , in creating a lock object if I want to lock the entire table before an update or delete , wht should I pass in the parameters.
Will passing sy-mandt be sufficient or i need to pass the key fields of the table.
thankyou .

Hi
Lock Objects
Lock object concept
Lock modes
Creating a lock object (example)
Lock object sample code
SAP data dictionary provides you with a locking mechanism to synchronize simultaneous data access by different users.
Lock objects are created in SE11.
Customer lock objects must begin with EY or EZ .
Three possible lock modes exist for lock objects.
Lock Mode
Lock mode E: This sets a lock for changing data for single user. This lock can be accumulated.
Lock mode X: This mode is used like mode E for changing data. The only technical difference from mode E is that the respective lock does not allow accumulation.
Lock mode S: This mode ensures that data displayed in your program cannot be changed by other users during the entire display time. Here you do not want to change the data yourself (allows read only access for data).
Creating Lock object
SE11
1)Enter lock object name beginning with EY or EZ
and hit create.
2)Enter table names containing data records that should be locked and the lock mode.
Enter short text /tbale/lockmode.
3) The primary keys of the specified tables are automatically selected as lock parameters.
It automatically selects the primary key for the selected table.
To set a lock in the application program
call a function module ENQUEUE_<LOCK_OBJECT>.
For our example, it would be ENQUEUE_EZMARA.
To release the lock in the application program
call a function module DEQUEUE_<LOCK_OBJECT>.
For our example, it would be DEQUEUE_EZMARA.
Refer the code executed by user (say abap1) for
matnr = 000000000000000012.
Lock Objects are used to synchronize access to the same data by more than one user. Function modules that can be used in application programs are generated from the definition of a lock object in the ABAP Dictionary.
The R/3 System synchronizes simultaneous access of several users to the same data records with a lock mechanism. When interactive transactions are programmed, locks are set and released by calling function modules .These function modules are automatically generated from the definition of lock objects in the ABAP Dictionary.
Structure of a Lock Object
The tables in which data records should be locked with a lock request are defined in a lock object together with their key fields.
When tables are selected, one table (the primary table) is first selected. Further tables (secondary tables) can also be added using foreign key relationships.
Lock Arguments
The lock argument of a table in the lock object consists of the key fields of the table.
The lock argument fields of a lock object are used as input parameters in the function modules for setting and removing locks generated from the lock object definition. When these function modules are called, the table rows to be locked or
unlocked are specified by defining certain values in these fields.These values can also be generic. The lock argument fields therefore define which subset of the table rows should be locked
Data Dictionary/ Lock Objects
The simplest case of a lock object consists of exactly one table and the lock argument of the table is the primary key of this table. Several tables can also be included in a lock object. A lock request therefore can lock an entire logical
object, and not only a record of a table. Such a logical object can be for example a document comprising an entry in a header table and N entries in a positiontable.
Lock Mode
The lock mode controls whether several users can access data records at the same time. The lock mode can be assigned separately for each table in the lock object. When the lock is set, the corresponding lock entry is stored in the
lock table of the system for each table. Access by more than one user can be synchronized in the
following ways:
Exclusive lock: The locked data can only be displayed or
edited by a single user. A request for another exclusive lock
or for a
shared lock is rejected.
Shared lock: More than one user can access the locked data
at the same time in display mode. A request for another
shared lock is accepted, even if it comes from another user. An exclusive lock
is rejected. Exclusive but not cumulative: Exclusive locks can be requested
several times from the same transaction and are processed
successively. In contrast, exclusive but not cumulative locks
can be called only once from the same transaction. All other
lock requests are rejected.
1) Select object type Lock object in the initial screen of the ABAP Dictionary, enter an object name and choose Create. The name of a lock object should begin with an E (Enqueue).The maintenance screen for lock objects is displayed.
2) Enter an explanatory short text in the field Short text. You can then use the short text to find the lock object at a later time, for example with the R/3 Repository Information System.
3) Enter the name of the primary table of the lock object. All other tables in the lock object must be linked with the primary table using foreign keys.
4) Select the lock mode of the primary table in the field below it The lock mode is used as the default value for the corresponding parameters of the function modules generated from the lock object.
5) Choose Add if you want to lock records in more than one
table with the lock object. A list of all the tables linked with the primary table using valid foreign keys is displayed. Select the appropriate table. The lock
mode of the primary table is copied as lock mode. You can change this setting as required, for example you can assign the lock mode separately for each table.
Similarly, you can add a table linked with the secondary table just added with foreign keys. To do this, place the cursor on the name of the secondary table and choose Add.
If no lock mode is assigned to a table, no lock is set for the
entries in this table when the generated function modules are
called. You should not assign a lock mode if a secondary table
was only used to define a path between the primary table and
another secondary table with foreign keys.
6) Save your entries.
A dialog box appears in which you have to assign the lock
object a development class.
7) You can define whether the function modules generated from
the lock object should be RFC-enabled on the Attributes tab
page. If you set the Allow RFC flag, the generated function
modules can be called from within another system with Remote
Function Call. If you permit Remote Function Calls for an
existing lock object, you must ensure that the generated
function modules are called from within an ABAP program with
parameters appropriate for the type. You should therefore check
all programs that use the associated function modules before
activating the lock object with the new option.
8) Choose Activate
