message type pocketsize

Hi,

We have configured an ALE scenario between our ECC systems. I would like to change the message type UPSMAS packet size from 01 to 100. The system is not allowing me to do that. Whatever the value I set it's coming back to 1. Any settings do I need to check.

Regards,

Krishna.

I guess you are trying to set the packet size in partner profile (WE20) Outbound Parameters with "Transfer IDoc immediately" option.

In this case SAP will revert packet size to 1 as the output is started immediately for every single IDoc which always limits the packet size to 1 IDoc.

Packet size for outbound IDocs makes only sense with "Collect IDocs" option where SAP can send a bunch of IDoc as set in packet number in one go.

If you are using RBDAPP01 job to process inbound IDocs in the receiver system, you can set the packet size in its variant too.

Thanks Vishnu for your quick reply, the same works for another connected system. But the problem is for newly added system. Is something has changed recently.

Regards,

Krishna.

Nothing changed. I work on 4 different versions of SAP and all of them behave same way.

You may have missed in the other system, check out it will have "Collect idocs" checked. That is why you were able to change the packet size there. You can NEVER change packet size to anything other than 1, if "Send immediately" is checked, as it doesn't make sense. Send immediately sends only one IDoc at a time, so its packet size cannot be other than one.

Also try double clicking on the message that shows in the bottom bar when you try to change the packet size. SAP help will state what I just stated.
