BDC Session Life Span?

Former Member — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 20:37:35 GMT

Hi All,

I'm wondering if there is a life span for a BDC session once it is created? For example, viewing your sessions in SM35, would there be a point in time that a session will be deleted?

Thanks,

Scott

Okay, so if my session runs in the background and I'm "keeping" it, how long will it keep? Is this a configuration thing or does SAP automatically remove processed sessions after X amount of time?

if u maintain parameter keep = 'X' in the function module then it will be there in session untill u delete it.

if u dont maintain keep = ' ' in the function module it will automatically deleted once it session get executed.

In some cases how long it will be there that u can come to know if contact ur BASIS people

No body ( enduser ) will keep the session in sm35 for a long time in PRD , he would be intersted to clear it of immediately if he/she is going to leave it like that it would affect the calculationn of report's .Session created in foreground / background will not have different life span.
