Difference between JCO and JRA action call

[Former Member]

Hi.

I have just seen a difference between the JCO and JRA action block.

I have a transaction returning a list of released process orders from SAP and I am using the JRA action block. It returned nothing. Changing this to JCO action block, using the same function module and the same input settings returned my process order.

Have anyone seen anything like this? To my knowledge there should not be any change between these two methods.

There was a bug in both 12.0 and 12.1 related to similar behavior as you described (you had a support ticket related to this for 12.0).

12.0.7 and 12.1.? were to have addressed this issue.

I assume you are talking about your 12.1 ramp up project and do not see any issues in the support system - perhaps logging an issue would be the best course of action.

Hi Jeremy.

Thanks for your reply. And yes, I have currently only seen this in MII 12.1, using Patch 5 as this is the first version, where we are using JRA adapter.

The JRA adapter seems to be working, it just seems to be very slow in getting data from SAP, i.e. as if there is some sort of cache in the connection? Meaning that the function module returns quickly with empty result. But after 5-10 minutes or hours, the proper result is returned (in case of scheduled transaction running every minute or so).

Just as a query cache of some sort.

Hi.

First time user here, just picking up from where Poul left (we work together). Has a ticket or anything been made as this seems to be a bit of a problem? Poul's on vacation at the moment so I don't know the current status, only that it is still a problem.
