How can I lock a transaction which is being used?

Hi buddies,

I want to privide the functionality that in case someone is accessing this transaction, then other user should not be able to run it.

How can I code for this functionality?

Thanks

Steven,

Locking a transaction is BASIS job.I don't think that can be done by an ABAPer.

Hi Kiran,

Where Can I find the transaction is being used?

Hello Steven,

Maybe you can create a validation to the transaction. If it's a Z transaction, you can use a EXPORT TO MEMORY command to set a flag when there's a user running it (you can assign a value to it on the start of the transaction), if this variable is filled with some data (maybe 'X'), you do not allow the user to access it.

However, if it's standard, it's better to verify with BASIS.

Best Regards,

Do yuo want to lock the actual transaction itself so that only 1 person at a time can access it? Or do yuo want to apply locking against 1 record for example, i.e. the actual data the transaction is accessing?
