Updation of a table is not happening.

Hi All,

I am running a method of a business object which creates a outbound idoc and updates the status of the idoc to 01 30 & 03 respectively in EDIDS table.

Right after the MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE FM, the commit statement updates the table with the above statuses.

I want a message in the EDIDS table which tells the user of how this outbound idoc was created. So I try to update it using the UPDATE statement and querying on the status 03.

But since it is a background method..it is not updating.

Please provide some input on how I can achieve this.

Thanks,

Ravi
