Hi,

The SQL connector does not lock any tables when extracting from them. The SQL connector never updates tables.

Hi Hakan, thanks for your answer.

So, you confirm us that the SAP R/3 transactions wont be affected in any way by the extracting of the tables through SAP Connector? (Orders, Billing, ...)

Hi,

When the SQL connector executes the SQL statement, there is no action performed to lock the table(s) involved. So it should not affect SAP R/3 transactions using the same table(s). If SAP R/3 transactions updates a table at the same time as the SQL connector is reading from it, the data extracted may of course be affected.

Regards,

Hakan
