Order of pending transactions

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Is there a way in which we can influence the order in which the pending transactions are sent to SAP upon a transmit?

Are they sent in the same order as the transactions/actions were executed? In alphabetical order?

For us it is important that we can sent a certain steplet to SAP first, before some other transactions are transmitted.

Please advise,

Kind regards,

Judith

The order is the way transaction where created (FIFO).  Not all transactions have will send to the backend, only ones with Update steps.

Thanks for your reply.

I tried the following:

- remove the update steps in the add-transaction that I do not want to be sent to SAP first

- create a new action with a edit-transaction step. in this transaction, i set the update step. all properties are just copied from the existing object

- modify the transmit action. the last subaction before the actual transmit is the new action with the edit-transaction. (loop over all objects concerned)

However, i get an error message -> failed to apply transaction...

Any suggestions?

I would said check the targets of the transactions.

I had to use a wrapper action, and a sub action to loop over the objects,

works fine now.

Thanks for your input.
