Avoid Time Out

Former Member — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 12:02:07 GMT

Hi All,

I have created a report which is getting auto refresh every after 1 min. Now this report will be always open on one screen but nobody will work on this session, and this report should not be Timeout .

Can we avoid timeout for this report? Because ideal session will time out after some time .

With Regards

Jitendra

Every minute? Running indefinetely? Unless the time-out is completely removed i don't think that is possible.

Better try to schedule a job that does the trick.

Mind you: i have no clue what your report is supposed to do.

Hi,

Measure runtime and try using Commit work when the runtime exceeds the profile parameter for maximum runtime...if you donot have any database update activity in your program.

In every 10 minutes. submit a zdummy program and return before refresh.

Take care.

You can call a COMMIT in order to reset the time

Hi Jitendra,

Are you still getting time out dump after using commit work statement?

Re: Avoid Time Out

Former Member — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 13:08:26 GMT

The statament COMMIT WORK can reset the time so the session shouldn't raise the dump for time out

So I don't know how you do the autorefresh, but I suppose you've a cycle, so you can insert that statament into the cycle:

Trying to get around the timeout problem with things like COMMITs is a poor solution. The parameters are set for a reason. If a program runs indefinitely, it will tie up a process.

Rob you're right

I can only suppose our friend Jitendra has to run a program online, and this program can take a long time...of course he needs to know the risk he can have if he reset the time of a process.

Rob,

With all my respect, could you please suggest a solution instead of calling poor to suggested one.

Hi Rob,

Is there any other solution to do that ? In my program there will be 20-25 records at a time, so data amount is very less. I just want that session should not be log-out is idle condition also.

Hi ,

Please check

PPCOCOMM SAP Report - Report to avoid timeout

PPCOCOMM is a standard ABAP report available within your SAP system (depending on your version and release level).

It does the same LIke Commit Work .

You can call This report in your report at the end .

Deepak.

We did some thing similar to this long back,

Executed this program in background ( with some intervals set ) which generates (overwrite mode) a file in application server. And a third party system which access this file via RFC( used SAP DCOM ) and displays the values in LCD ( or what ever it is ). There was a delayed time for the output.

But executing the same program in a session conitnously sounds bad,instead you can go for Repeat execution in background job.

Hi Keshav ,

I think Repeating Execution in Background is Correct Option , so as to avoid Performance issue of the system .

But for His Requirment to Display that Refreshed Data Continously . WHat would be better Option ? .

IF Report is executed Background Then he will not be able to see Data on Screen .

@keshav : Please Throw some light on SAP DCOM

Regards

Deepak.

Hi,

As said we did it using a third party software interaction with SAP & to be frank i dont have any idea how to display directly from SAP( I suppose OP is displaying the R/3 directly , But no idea how he is doing it).

SAP DCOM is a ancient method of calling a RFC from third party softwares . Dcomm generates a dll file( which is used in the ASP,dot net etc to invoke the RFC. Its has some steps which i forgot

Possibly he is refreshing the data in an endless DO-ENDDO loop.

Well if that is the case , the infinite processing would result in memory/storage..... limit some day
