Activating Objects in the Background 

Prerequisites

You activate objects in the background if the activation of a large number of objects is likely to result in long runtimes. In this case you must select a start time that ensures the objects are activated at a time when the system is not so busy.

Procedure

...

       1.      Choose System ® Services  ® Table maintenance ® Extended table maintenance.

The initial screen of the Extended Table Maintenance appears.

       2.      Enter table name TACOB and choose Maintain.

Specify the object to be activated in the next screen with the object type and object name.

       3.      Enter the object types and object names.

There is an input help for the Type field that displays the possible object types.

       4.      Save your entries and exit the Extended table maintenance.

With the mass activation program, now schedule a background job for activating the entries in table TACOB (call report RADMASG0).
