What can be used instead of COMMIT WORK in a user-exit?

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am calling a BAPI inside a USER-EXIT, since I cannot use 'COMMIT WORK' or 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT', what can i use to commit it to the db?

Kindly Reply.

When is the user exit getting triggered? If it is before the transaction does commit then you don't need to do a commit.  You standard transaciton will do the commit for you.

if it is in update task, then create a z-fm Put your code in it with commit and call the FM in background task.

if it is after the save and not in update task then I guess you can do you commit in the exit

Thank you.

I'll create a z_,,, FM and select the update module in the form builder. guess that will help solve my problem.

You can try to build a FM RFC enabled, and in your user-exit CALL this FM IN BACKGROUND TASK [AS SEPARATE UNIT]. The FM will wait and be submitted during the COMMIT WORK, it will exc=execute in its own LUW and you will be allowed to program what you want in it.

Can I use a COMMIT WORK or BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT inside a Z.... FM which is being called inside a user exit?

[raymond_giuseppi]

Yes if you called your FM in BACKGROUND TASK. No if you called it immediately or IN UPDATE TASK.
