Documentation

Definition

If the send process is running in parallel operation, the send dispatcher calls the actual send processes by means of asynchronous RFC. The send processes are therefore handled in the various work processes of the servers that are specified in the RFC server group. After all the send requests have been distributed, the dispatcher waits until all the asynchronous RFC calls have reported back. However, if any send processes need longer than a specified time, the send dispatcher cancels the whole run for the current address type since a temporary disruption cannot be ruled out.

Use

The period after which the dispatcher cancels the run depends on three factors:

• Maximum number of send requests (package size) that are transferred to one of the work processes simultaneously
• A factor in seconds that is set with the "Timeout Factor for Each Send Request"
• A value in seconds that is added to the total value
