Description

Import

IV_READ_BUFFER

This optional parameter defines if data from the buffer should be used. This data can contain unsaved information.

Import

IV_UPDATE_BUFFER

This optional parameter defines if data read from the database should be copied to the buffer. This speeds up subsequent read accesses to the same data.

Export

ES_MESSAGES

This export parameter can contain a list of messages about processing. The row indexes of table CT_NEGATIVE correspond to the row indexes of the corresponding messages in subtable ES_MESSAGES-SPECIFIC_MESSAGES.

Changing

CT_NEGATIVE

For each query, add a row to this table and fill substructure SEARCH_KEY with the key to be found. After execution of the method, subtable GROUPS contains the positive mapping groups and objects for which a negative mapping of SEARCH_KEY was found.

Notes

Alternatively, you can use method CHECK_NEGATIVE to check negative mappings.
