Definition

This field specifies the average call time per transaction of all requests from a particular service, a particular action, or a particular user to a component. The time is given in milliseconds.

Use

Call time is comparable with the roll wait time of the ABAP statistics records. However, the roll wait time does not, for example, contain the database response time, which is measured specially there. In the task types ALE, RFC, and CPIC, the roll wait time is also calculated from the response time.

If a component that writes distributed statistics records calls another component, it measures the time that passes between calling the component and the response. This is also the case, for example, when the component calls a database. The total of all call times is stored in the statistics main record, if several calls are made to further components within one request.

Dependencies

To be able to determine the average response time per transaction, the component must set the transaction start and transaction end indicators. In some components, the start and end of a business process cannot be identified using the incoming requests. The term "transaction" must be redefined in these components (see also the field Number of transactions).

Example

The Internet Transaction Server can, for example, call a ABAP System or different module providers within user requests. The response time contains the total of the call times (Response times of the called components and network times) as well as the time that is required to send the response to the request to the WGate. The call times of the individual components come from the call subrecords.
