Documentation

Definition

Defines the period (in minutes) after which the buffering of a value in the cache is obsolete. Once this period has elapsed, the system reads the value from the database anew. This period applies to the top n lists and the Accounts Receivable Accounting key figures.

Use

If you do not enter anything in this field, the system uses a default period of 10 minutes.

The cache is used by the Home Page Accounts Receivable Accounting application for the following CHIPs:

  • Top n customers with overdue outstanding amounts
  • Payment differences by reason code
  • Top n customers for each dunning level
  • Outstanding amounts by dunning level
  • Key figure: future outstanding amounts

In addition, it is also used for some key figures for the SAP Receivables Manager mobile app and for report FIN_AR_DUE_DATE_GRID.

Dependencies

Synchronous buffering is mandatory. You can use asynchronous buffering in addition if you need to. For additional information, see Period for Asynchronous Update of the Cache.

Example

  1. You define a period of 10 minutes.
  2. The system determines the value 100,000 for the Future Outstanding Amounts key figure, and writes it to the cache.
  3. Over the next 10 minutes, any user who calls up the key figure sees the value 100,000. Invoices posted in the meantime are not taken into account.
  4. The first time the key figure is called up after the 10 minutes have elapsed the system calculates the key figure anew, displays it and updates the cache.
