Definition

Use

In order to improve performance, the addresses of SAP users can be buffered. Changes of address are only included in the database and not in the buffer. With buffered addresses a change is only effective after the addresses have been deleted from the buffer. Therefore, it is advisable to delete the buffer at regular intervals. To do this, specify the number of hours after which the address buffer of an application server is automatically deleted.

In order to delete the address buffer of all application servers manually, choose Reset buffer.

Dependencies

If you do not want the buffer to ever be deleted automatically, enter 9999.

If you want to switch the buffer off, enter 0000.
