Container problem in parallel processing with simple forms

[Nigel Thurgood]

Scenario is a fork with 2 branches, each branch contains a simple form step. Branch A form changes container element structure 'A', branch B form changes container structure element 'B'.

*	Agents A and B open forms A and B simultaneously, then the GT_CONTAINER for both forms has both structures A and B blank.
*	Agent A enters data on form and presses 'Save'; 

*	Function SWY_STRUCTURE_TO_CONTAINER firstly calls function SWY_GET_CONTAINER, which loads a local copy of blank structures A and B from GT_CONTAINER (ie as at when the form was opened);
*	The container element name ('A')  is sourced, and then SWC_SET_ELEMENT updates structure A of the local container;
*	SWC_SET_CONTAINER then updates GT_CONTAINER with the local container.

*	Agent B enters data on form and presses 'Save';

*	SWY_GET_CONTAINER loads local copy of blank structures A and B (ie as at when the form was opened);
	
*	The container element name ('B') is sourced, and then SWC_SET_ELEMENT updates structure B of the local container;
*	SWC_SET_CONTAINER then updates GT_CONTAINER with the local container.

*	End result is that Agent A / form A changes are overwritten.

Apologies if this has been vovered before / is a know problem / limitation. Any advice would be appreciated.
 
Best regards.
