workprocess in hold

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

In R/3 systems(4.7 with SQL) when i saw workprocess in SM50 which are in PRIV mode with Hold status but i saw same workprocesses in SM66 they are same PRIV mode but with stopped status.

why same workprocesses are showing different status in different SM50 and SM66.

any body know reason please let me know...

regards,

stoped/hold statuses means process is waiting for samething

(for example OS), there is a good explanation on each state in SM50/SM66, by pressing F1 on the process mode,

The status of hold in SM66 is equivalence to status stopped in SM50.

please notice that user that got to PRIV mode,

means he took quite a lot of memory,

the the WAS can not release the memory (by doing roll-out),

untill the user would leave the transaction

that's the reason why users, who get to PRIV, gets the meesage "please leave transaction before taking a brake"
