Record Reservation

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software provides record reservation capability within the Purchase Order Print program (R43500). Record reservation helps to ensure the integrity of the data and prevent data loss. While printing a purchase order using the R43500 program, you can enable the system to update the next status of the order in addition to other details. To avoid simultaneous updating of the same records, the system reserves (locks) records so that they cannot be updated by any other program. Thus, the system does not allow you to edit a record that has been locked by a different user or application.

When a program that uses record reservation is interrupted, orphaned reservation records might remain in the Business Object Reservation table (F00095). This can occur, for example, when technicians are working with a server, or when a workstation shuts down without warning. If an interruption stops one of the programs in the Purchase Order Print program before it releases the reservations that it creates, you cannot update the records until the orphaned reservations are removed.

You can use the Remove Business Object Reservation program (P00095) to release unwanted record reservations. This program stores reservation information in the Business Object Reservation table (F00095).
