SAP Note 150353 - In batch mode impairment by DB locks on D020L

Component : UI services, screen, batch input -

Summary :
The noted SAP issue occurs when non-batch input jobs operating in batch mode induce DB locks in table D020L, significantly impacting operations due to prolonged hanging. This happens because, post-upgrade, every selection screen comparison in batch reports retains D020L locks until the job's end, in contrast to frequent releases in batch input. The remedy involves applying the latest patch that modifies processing to handle D020L updates in buffer rather than directly in the DB, thus preventing locks and ensuring smoother operations. All affected application servers require a one-time buffer update post-patch application.
