Deletion of Single Master Data records per routine

[Former Member]

Hello *,

I have a characteristic defined as infoprovider to have a flexible update rule.

In the startroutine I want to loop at the incoming datarecords which could have a flag that this record is requested for deletion.

I have to check in the startroutine if this record has a sid that is used for transactional data to avoid sid errors after deletion. if it has one I would mark this record as used for reporting, if not I would write directly into the master data into field "changeflag" a 'D' for deletion.

Afterwards I would start a changerun on the object to execute the deletion and activate the infoobject.

Is there a function module wich does not check the whole content of one infoobject but single datarecords for sid and usage in transactional data?

Thank you.

Hi!

I am not much adept in this area. You can use a routine for updating that perticular field where you are writing "D". Because update rules are applied for single record at a time. you can verify in this routine whether this perticulat record has a sid or not.hope you got the point. It did the same in a relatively same situation.

In the function module RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA you can pass a parameter I_T_CHAVL. This allows you to restrict the values you want to delete. The fm automatically checks if the record is still used so you cannot delete used values.

You also get a protocoll and a where used list (parameters E_T_ULIST*)
