Question:
Is there a way in ABAP to detect from within a program that another process is running the same program? Meaning if PROG1 is running, could PROG1 check to see if another process is running program PROG1?
Thank you
Answer:
there are several methods for this purpose, but you must code it
my favorite is using the FM ENQUEUE_ARRAY because of reliability, it works also fine in most cases of program aborts due to the equeue-process
other methods i.e. using a user table with entry for program run or using memory id's
