Standard settings

For SAP source systems, you change the control parameter settings in the transaction SBIW (Customizing for Extractors), under Business Information Warehouse -> General Settings -> Control Parameters -> Maintain Control Parameters for Data Transfer .

Activities

  1. Maximum size of data packages

For data transfer into BW, the individual data records are sent in packages of variable size. You use these parameters to control how large such a data package typically is. If no entry is maintained, the data is transferred with a standard setting of 10,000 kbytes per data package. The memory requirement depends not only on the setting for data package size, but also on the width of the transfer structure, and the memory requirement of the relevant extractor.

  1. Frequency

With the specified frequency, you detemine after how many data IDocs an Info IDoc is sent, or how many data IDocs are described by an Info IDoc.

The frequency is set to 1 by default. This means that an Info IDoc follows every data IDoc. Generally, choose a frequency of between 5 and 10, but not greater than 20.

The larger the package size of a data IDoc, the lower you must set the frequency. In this way you ensure that, when loading data, you receive information on the current data load status at relatively short intervals.

In the BW Monitor you can use each Info IDoc to see whether the loading process is running without errors. If this is the case for all the data IDocs in an Info IDoc, then the traffic light in the Monitor is green. One of the things the Info IDocs contain information on, is whether the current data IDocs have been loaded correctly.

  1. Size of a PSA partition

Here, you can set the number of records at which a new partition is generated. This value is set to 1.000.000 records as standard.
