Update Techniques  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

The main update technique for bundling database changes in a single database LUW is to use CALL FUNCTION ... IN UPDATE TASK. This section describes various ways of updating the database.

A program can send an update request using COMMIT WORK

·        To the update work process, where it is processed asynchronously. The program does not wait for the work process to finish the update (Asynchronous Update).

·        For asynchronous processing in two steps (Updating Asynchronously in Steps.)

·        To the update work process, where it is processed synchronously. The program waits for the work process to finish the update (Synchronous Update).

·        To its own work process locally. In this case, of course, the program has to wait until the update is finished (Local Update.)
