Lock the ABAP Workbench in EHP installation
I'm installing the EHP5 for ERP, and in pre-processing phase witn EHPI installer, therefore i lock the ABAP workbench
The installation guide say this:
The installation program asks you in this phase to confirm the lock of the ABAP Workbench on all SAP instances. This lock is needed to prevent development objects (for example, ABAP reports, table definitions, and so on) from being changed during the installation process, since these modifications would be lost.
You can continue to use your SAP system in production operation, even if you confirm that the ABAP Workbench can be locked. However, after you have confirmed the ABAP Workbench lock, no more transports can be made into or out of the SAP system.
The installation program waits until the time you entered as the maximum synchronization time for all the instances has expired.
I have some questions about that.
1. I know that I can´t do transport from development system. But can I open the client and do manual modifications?(Urg3nt corrections). WilI I lost these modifications after downtime?
2. After finish the pre-processing phase, the installation ask for a full backup, but also give an option:
Go productive Again
What's the meaning of this option??? If I select Go productive Again, can I do transports again?
If yes, I lost the installation process? and Must I restart the installation from beggining or the installation can be resumed re-starting the ehpi installer.
I don't have very clear f I select Go productive Again what really happen and how to do urg3nt changes while the installation is running.Dear Manfred, Please find the reply to your queries
1. I know that I can´t do transport from development system. But can I open the client and do manual modifications?(Urg3nt corrections). WilI I lost these modifications after downtime?
Answer : You will loose modifications if you perform manual modifications after locking and the changes wont be available after downtime phase.
2. After finish the pre-processing phase, the installation ask for a full backup, but also give an option:
Go productive Again -
Answer : This option is provided as a backout solution - this means this is the last stage/screen from where you can return to your current system(system before upgrade) - After passing this stage/screen system can be reverted back to previous stage from SAP level.
What's the meaning of this option??? If I select Go productive Again, can I do transports again? -
Answer : If you select go productiive again you system will be back to normal state as you started before EHPi.
If yes, I lost the installation process? - Installation process as in you would need to build the shadow instance again with the pramaters provided.
and Must I restart the installation from beggining or the installation can be resumed re-starting the ehpi installer. - Answer : I would suggest re-set the installation process and remove EHPi instalaltion directories before starting the instalaltion again.
Hope it helps.

How to implement locking in ABAP
Hello everyone,
I am doing dialog programming and I have a screen that creates some template. When the user opens up the screen it defualts to next available template number to be created (for example if template No 1 exists then it will default to template no 2 so template 2 will be created). But if multiple users open up the screen then it will show template 2 for both of them and I want to avoid this, i.e. I like to implement some locking mechanism so one user opens up the screen that template is locked and the other cannot create the same template. Please share any ideas and suggestions, how I can imeplement this!
Thanks.

Lock Objects
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 (see Function Modules for Lock Requests). 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 (see also Conditions for Foreign Keys).
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.
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 position table.
Locks can also be set from programs in other systems with the corresponding interfaces if the lock object was defined with RFC authorization.
A lock mode can be assigned for each table in the lock object. This mode defines how other users can access a locked record of the table.
Table SFLIGHT in the flight model contains all the scheduled flights of a carrier. Field SEATSMAX contains the number of seats available. Field SEATSOCC contains the number of seats already booked. If a booking is made for a customer (by a travel agency or sales desk), you must check whether there are enough seats available. The number of seats booked is incremented when the booking is made.
This mechanism must ensure that two sales desks do not make the same booking at the same time and that the flight is not overbooked.
This can be done by creating lock object ESFLIGHT. Only the table SFLIGHT must be included in this lock object. The flight can then be locked (with the function modules generated from the lock object) when booking. If another sales desk also wants to book seats for this flight, the lock will prevent the flight from being overbooked.
Activating a lock object in the ABAP Dictionary automatically creates function modules for setting (ENQUEUE_<lock object name>) and releasing (DEQUEUE_<lock object name>) locks.
The generated function modules are automatically assigned to function groups. You should not change these function modules and their assignment to function groups since the function modules are generated again each time the lock object is activated.
Never transport the function groups, which contain the automatically generated function modules. The generated function modules of a lock object could reside in a different function group in the target system. Always transport the lock objects. When a lock object is activated in the target system, the function modules are generated again and correctly assigned to function groups.
Parameters of the Function Modules
Field Names of the Lock Object
The keys to be locked must be passed here.
A further parameter X_<field> that defines the lock behavior when the initial value is passed exists for every lock field <field>. If the initial value is assigned to <field> and X_<field>, then a generic lock is initialized with respect to <field>. If <field> is assigned the initial value and X_<field> is defined as X, the lock is set with exactly the initial value of <field>.
Parameters for Passing Locks to the Update Program
A lock is generally removed at the end of the transaction or when the corresponding DEQUEUE function module is called. However, this is not the case if the transaction has called update routines. In this case a parameter must check that the lock has been removed.
Parameter _SCOPE controls how the lock or lock release is passed to the update program (see The Owner Concept for Locks). You have the following options:
_SCOPE = 1: Locks and lock releases are not passed to the update program. The lock is removed when the transaction is ended.
_SCOPE = 2: The lock or lock release is passed to the update program. The update program is responsible for removing the lock. The interactive program with which the lock was requested no longer has an influence on the lock behavior. This is the standard setting for the ENQUEUE function module.
_SCOPE = 3: The lock or lock release is also passed to the update program. The lock must be removed in both the interactive program and in the update program. This is the standard setting for the DEQUEUE function module.
Parameters for Lock Mode
A parameter MODE_<TAB> exists for each base table TAB of the lock object. The lock mode for this base table can be set dynamically with this parameter. Valid values for this parameter are S (shared), E (exclusive) and X (exclusive but not cumulative).
The lock mode specified when the lock object for the table is created is the default value for this parameter. This default value can however be overridden as required when the function module is called.
If a lock set with a lock mode is to be removed by calling the DEQUEUE function module, this call must have the same value for the parameter MODE_<TAB>.
Controlling Lock Transmission
Parameter _COLLECT controls whether the lock request or lock release should be performed directly or whether it should first be written to the local lock container. This parameter can have the following values:
Initial value: The lock request or lock release is sent directly to the lock server.
X : The lock request or lock release is placed in the local lock container. The lock requests and lock releases collected in this lock container can then be sent to the lock server at a later time as a group by calling the function module FLUSH_ENQUEUE.
Behavior for Lock Conflicts (ENQUEUE only)
The ENQUEUE function module also has the parameter _WAIT. This parameter determines the lock behavior when there is a lock conflict.
You have the following options:
Initial value: If a lock attempt fails because there is a competing lock, the exception FOREIGN_LOCK is triggered.
X : If a lock attempt fails because there is a competing lock, the lock attempt is repeated after waiting for a certain time. The exception FOREIGN_LOCK is triggered only if a certain time limit has elapsed since the first lock attempt. The waiting time and the time limit are defined by profile parameters.
Controlling Deletion of the Lock Entry (DEQUEUE only)
The DEQUEUE function module also has the parameter _SYNCHRON.
If X is passed, the DEQUEUE function waits until the entry has been removed from the lock table. Otherwise it is deleted asynchronously, that is, if the lock table of the system is read directly after the lock is removed, the entry in the lock table may still exist.
Exceptions of the ENQUEUE Function Module
FOREIGN_LOCK: A competing lock already exists. You can find out the name of the user holding the lock by looking at system variable SY-MSGV1.
SYSTEM_FAILURE: This exception is triggered when the lock server reports that a problem occurred while setting the lock. In this case, the lock could not be set.
If the exceptions are not processed by the calling program itself, appropriate messages are issued for all exceptions.
Reference Fields for RFC-Enabled Lock Objects
The type of an RFC-enabled function module must be completely defined. The parameters of the generated function module therefore have the following reference fields for RFC-enabled lock objects:
Parameters
Reference fields
X_<field name>
DDENQ_LIKE-XPARFLAG
_WAIT
DDENQ_LIKE-WAITFLAG
_SCOPE
DDENQ_LIKE-SCOPE
_SYNCHRON
DDENQ_LIKE-SYNCHRON
All the tables that can be included in a lock object must be linked with foreign keys. There are a number of restrictions to the valid relationships.
The foreign key relationships of the tables of the lock object must form a tree. The tables are the nodes of the tree. The links of the tree mean is the check table of.
The foreign key fields must be key fields of the foreign key table.
The foreign key relationships defined between the base tables of the lock objects may not have any field that is checked against more than one other field. A field therefore may not occur twice as foreign key field in a relationship and may not be checked against two different fields in two different foreign key relationships.
You must keep one restriction in mind for multi-structured foreign keys. If a field is assigned to a field that is outside the check table, the table containing this field must be in a sub-tree that contains the check table of this foreign key relationship as a root.
These conditions are always satisfied if the key of the foreign key table is an extension of the key of the check table.
Conditions 2, 3 and 4 are meaningless if the particular foreign key field was excluded from the assignment to the key fields of the check table by marking it as generic or setting it to a constant. This is also true for multi-structured foreign keys if the foreign key field refers to a table that is not contained in the lock object.

Can any body send process of steps and coding for lock concept in ABAP.
Regards
A.KLock 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.

Is it possible to lock standard abap program?
hi,
i am trying to do the lock transcations.
i went to sm01 and i locked se38.its working .but from pfcg its possible to go to se38(its allowing ).i want that no one can access the se38code in anyway.
what can i do for this?
i thought it off locking the screen and program itself??
how can i lock the standard program(for ex se38).
is it possible??

Locking in ABAP - Sales & Delivery
Hi all,
Our application is based on reading stocks tables(MCHB/MARD/MSKU/MSKA etc... ) and then do some calculations and finally update these tables back.
During the calculation phase we have acquired a exclusive(E) MARC lock.
Now we are getting into a problem :
If 2 users want to use the same stock (highly likely in sales scenarios) then untill calculation phase of user1 is complete the lock is not released and for user2 even though enough stock exists we cannot do the calculations because lock could not be acquired.
How can this problem be solved? Any hints will be of great help
Thanks
MaqIf you mean , Is the caculation time required? Ofcousre it is. Thats the heart of the application.
However what would happen if i lock individual tables like MCHA,MARD,MSKU,MSKA etc... that would atlesast allow posting goods for batch which is not currently locked for example..

Hi guys,
is it correct that we have to create a separate task for each repositor(/SAP SID_CLIENT) ? Or is there another method, for example to get a choice of all existing repositories(we currently have ~250 clients on 60 SAP Systems plus a couple of Java instances). That means to have just one task which offers all (Abap-)repositories for selection.
Regards
JuergenAs far as I found out the LockABAP-Task is not used (anymore?) in the SPF (although available).
If you change any user-related attribute (e.g. ACCOUNTrepNameLOCKED) the ModifyUser-Event task is called anyway, so why don't use the provided functionality?!
Your request is solved if you do it the way we suggested. You "only" have to create 260 attributes (or use automatic creation and change the Jobs) and adjust the Modify<systemtype>UserTask. The ModifyUser-Event task then finds the correct repository for you.
Christian once told me this solution in another thread here on SDN and it works for me (kudos to him) -
How to lock running of abap program?

I want to lock my abap program. So, I want to provide that my program can be once at any time. And I need to unlock my program. Is there any functions that do my requests?HI Nail.
YOu can set a flag in a ztable with date and time stamp.
In the at selection-screen event, do this.
at selection-screen.
select single * from ztab where repid = sy-repid.
if ztab-run_date = sy-datum.
if sy-ucomm = 'ONLI'.
message a000(zz) 'YOu cannot run this program'.

Hello,
I have requirement to cancel execution of a function module if it exceeds 10 Sec. How do i do this in ABAP.
This FM is sending data through XI and waiting on confirmation from a external system through XI. But the requirement is to wait only for 10 sec and if no response continue the process after the FM.
Any help in this highly appreciated.
Thanks!!
Harprit<b>GET_JOB_RUNTIME_INFO</b> Get the current job number from a program. Also returns other useful info about the current job.
<b>ENQUE_SLEEP</b> Wait a specified period of time before continuing processing.
<b>ENQUEUE_ESFUNCTION</b> Lock an abap program so that it cannot be executed.
Set the parameters as follows:
RELID = 'ZZ'
SRTF2 = 0
SRTF = (your report name)
Please note that you should not use SY-REPID to pass your report name to the function. The value of SY-REPID will change as it is being passed to the function module, and will no longer hold the value of the calling report.

Impact of J2EE_ADMIN / Administrator user getting locked
Hi,
What is the impact of J2EE_ADMIN / Administrator user getting locked in abap / java engines? Will it effect startup of java server processes or java applications? What are the other implications?
Thanks,
AbdulHi Abdul,
if the J2EE_ADMIN or Administrator user is locked then
1. you cannot login to Visual Admin unless you define some other user with same authorization.
2. any Jco-RFC using this user won't work.
3. if you don't have any other user, you will have to activate SAP* user to unlock this user.
Thanks,

Locking in JClient applications
Hi all,
I've some questions / thoughts about the use of locking for JClient based applications.
First of all the locking mode. What would be the best way to go? Pessimistic locking makes sure nobody ever loses his/her work (because you can never start changing a row if another user is already doing so), but I got the feeling it's much harder to catch locking errors and doing something usefull with it when using pessimistic locking. For example, if you use a ViewObject with some detail ViewObject's beneath and start to change an attribute of one of the detail rows and someone else is already editting the same row BC4J will throw a lock exception. But I actually don't want the user to be able to edit the row in the first place if it is already locked. You can use an association to automatically lock the master row too, but this only happens as soon as someone has started editting one of the detail rows. At that time multiple users can already have looked at the master/detail rows in edit mode. What I actually want is show them a read-only version of the master and detail rows as soon as one of the users loaded the master/detail rows in edit mode. The only way I can think of doing this is manually lock the rows as soon as the first user it opening the edit screen (without having changed anything yet). Or does anyone know of a better way of doing this? And is there an easy way to use the BC4J/JClient bindings to make all fields read-only if the rows are being editted by another user?
Optimistic locking is another way to go. The user gets only an error when committing if someone else changed the row earlier on. The user can then choose to save anyway or rollback and loose his/her work. The latter is a bit of a shame ofcourse, but in practise this might not happen often.
Does anyone have any other tips or suggestions for using locking in JClient applications?

PeterHi vinu,

Hi all,
is there any way to get the information why a user was locked in ABAP system via the connector? I would like to differentiate in IDM if the user was locked by the administrator or because of too many failed login attempts. I can see only the general information if a user is locked or not. But I need the locking reason code.
Thanks in advance
Jörn KaplanHello Jörn,
I have something like this in my mind:
Implement a class extending the ToSAP class, which is in the DSE.jar . For each needed method (initCustom, exitPass, add-, mod- and deleteEntryCustom) use super.xyz to call the method from the ToSAP.
Then the class needs to write the locking reason to the desired place. I guess it could work somehow like this, but cannot think of an other possibility.
The other possibility would be to file an OSS. But that could take some time, too.
EDIT: Or is it possible to store the locking reason in the system? Then you only need to read that out and store it in the IS using a FromCustom pass after the pass that writes to the ABAP.
Best regards -

data:
begin of t_values occurs 2,
value like kna1-begru,
end of t_values,
t_return like ddshretval occurs 0 with header line.
t_values = 'PAR*'.
append t_values.

FTP_CONNECT Open a connection (and log in) to an FTP server
FTP_DISCONNECT Close the connection (and log off) the FTP server
FU CSAP_MAT_BOM_READ You can use this function module to display simple material BOMs. You cannot display BOM groups (for example, all variants of a variant BOM). as in transaction CS03. Current restrictions: You cannot display long texts. You cannot display sub-items. You cannot display classification data of BOM items for batches. You can only display one alternative or variant. You cannot enter an alternative for module CSAP_MAT_BOM_READ, so you always see alternative 01. The following example came from a posting on the SAP-R3-L mailing list.
Example:
data: begin of tstk2 occurs 0.
include structure stko_api02.
data: end of tstk2.
