Effect
Controls processing of the batch input table by the addition USING.
Note
The control options for a batch input table include the control options for batch input sessions in real batch input, plus some extra options.
Addition 1
... MODE mode
Effect
The MODE addition determines the processing mode for processing. mode
can be specified as a character-like data object, whose content and purpose are shown in the following
table. If one of the additions MODE or OPTIONS FROM is not used, the effect is the same as if mode had the content "A".
| mode | Effect |
|---|---|
| "A" | Processing with screens displayed |
| "E" | Screens displayed only if an error occurs |
| "N" | Processing without screens displayed. If a breakpoint is reached in one of the calledtransactions, processingis terminated with sy-subrc equal to 1001. The field sy-msgtycontains "S", sy-msgid contains "00", sy-msgnocontains "344", sy-msgv1 contains "SAPMSSY3", and sy-msgv2 contains "0131". |
| "P" | Processing without screens displayed. If a breakpoint is reached in one of the called transactions, the system branches to the ABAP Debugger. |
| Others | As for "A". |
Addition 2
... UPDATE upd
Effect
The UPDATE addition determines the update mode for processing. upd
can be specified as a character-like data object, whose content and purpose are shown in the following
table. If one of the additions UPDATE or OPTIONS FROM is not used, the effect is the same as if upd had the content "A".
| upd | Effect |
|---|---|
| "A" | Asynchronous update.Updates of called programs areexecuted in the same way as if the AND WAIT addition was not specified in the COMMIT WORK statement. |
| "S" | Synchronous update. Updates of the called programs are executed in thesame way as if the AND WAIT addition had been specified in the COMMIT WORK statement. |
| "L" | Local updates. Updates of the called program are executed in the sameway as if the SET UPDATE TASK LOCAL statement had been executed in the program. |
| Others | As for "A". |
Note
This option is not available for execution of batch input sessions in batch input. Updates are always synchronous.
Addition 3
... OPTIONS FROM opt
Effect
The OPTIONS addition covers the functions of the MODE
and UPDATE additions and provides further options for controlling processing
of the batch input table. The control parameters are specified in an opt
structure of the type CTU_PARAMS from ABAP Dictionary. The CTU_PARAMS structure has the components displayed in the following table:
| Component | Meaning |
|---|---|
| DISMODE | Processing mode. Values as for the MODE addition. |
| UPMODE | Update mode for processing. Values as for the UPDATE addition. |
| CATTMODE | CATT mode for processing. Whilebatch input is used mostly for data transfer, CATT processes are more complextransactions, since theyare reusable tests. Values: " " (no CATT mode), "N" (CATT without single screen control), "A" (CATT with single screen control). |
| DEFSIZE | Selects whether the screensof the called transaction are displayed in the standard screen size. Values: "X" (standard size), " " (current size). |
| RACOMMIT | Selects whether the COMMIT WORK statement terminates processing or not. Values: " "(COMMIT WORK terminates processing), "X" (COMMIT WORK does not terminate processing). |
| NOBINPT | Selection for the system field sy-binpt. Values: " "(sy-binpt contains "X" in the called transaction), "X" (sy-binpt contains " " in the called transaction). |
| NOBIEND | Selection for the system field sy-binpt. Values: " "(sy-binpt contains "X" after the end of the batch input table data in the called transaction ) "X"(sy-binpt contains " " after the end of the data in the called transaction). |
If the OPTIONS FROM addition is not used, the values set by the additions
MODE or UPDATE or the standard values specified there "A" apply to DISMODE and UPMODE. The other components are set to the value " ".
Addition 4
... MESSAGES INTO itab
Effect
Using this addition, all the messages
sent during batch input processing are saved to an internal table itab of the type BDCMSGCOLL from ABAP Dictionary.
