<DIV>Hi Manish,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1) The Event function module assigned in SWEC is called everytime the
specified change takes place. It is not necessary that the event have a
receiver. A Check function module is assigned to a Event - Receiver
combinationin in SWETYPV and it does not get executed unless the event linkage
is active.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2)</DIV>
<DIV> a) The Event FM is called in the update module and it is possible
that locks are not released until all the updates are completed. </DIV>
<DIV> b) I did come across a similar situation for one of my BOs - but it
was an SAP bug. I circumvented the problem by using a check in my
event FM.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Perhaps, I can help more if you can post the code of yor FM.</DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=323465018-08102005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff>1. Create a

<DIV><SPAN class=323465018-08102005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff>2. Attach
it (in SWEC) to change object EINKBELEG / BUS2013 / On Change /

<DIV><SPAN class=323465018-08102005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff>3. The

<DIV><SPAN class=323465018-08102005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff>1. It seems
that the check function is not called every time. After some analysis it seems

<DIV><SPAN class=323465018-08102005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff> a)
The database locks on EINK, EKPO etc are not released (strange
