SAP LUW
Related sequence of programming units, whose execution, for example in
dialog steps or in
Remote Function Calls can be distributed across several
work processes, but their database changes are updated within one single
database LUW. SAP LUWs are implemented by bundling techniques, in which programming units such as
update function modules or
sub-routines are registered in different work processes but executed by one single work process. An SAP LUW is usually started by opening a new
internal session and completed by the
Open SQLstatement
COMMIT WORK. Changes within one SAP LUW can be undone by the open SQLstatement ROLLBACK WORK.
