Simultaneously Locking/Unlocking Master Data Records for Multiple Employees Using Fast Entry: Example 
Prerequisites
Five employees in the sales department receive trip cost payments each month because their jobs entail extensive traveling schedules. However, they spent the month of July, 1998, attending various product and sales seminars, and as a result they will not receive their mileage allowance for this pay period. In this example, you use manual preselection to enter the personnel numbers. Assume that all of the records are unlocked.
Procedure
The Fast Entry screen appears.
You see an empty data table where you enter the relevant personnel numbers.
You see the five employee names and numbers along with the Mileage allowance information for each which correspond to the entered validity period.
The lock indicators of all five employee records are activated.
The Mileage allowance subtype records for all five employees are locked.
