Hi Everyone, I ask for suggestions concerning the way to increase the refresh frequency of the reports included in the main dashboard. Thanks for your help. Kind regards.

Hello Federico,

You can edit the frequency in which a background report is run through the following steps: Running a Report in the Background or Editing a Background Report Schedule | SAP Help Portal.

  1. Then your SAP Ariba solution dashboard, click the tab to which you want to add the report.
  2. Click the dashboard configuration icon and select Add Content.
  3. To add a report to your dashboard as a chart or table, drag and drop Chart/Table to your dashboard tab, then navigate to the report, click it, and select Table to add it as a table or the chart type to add it as a chart.

Regarding general data availability and frequency - customers share database resources for the Ariba Spend Management (ASM) loads, which are responsible for updating report data. These ASM loads queue to run every 6 hours, after completion of the previous load operation.

The reason you might not see a consistent six-hour schedule is that, for performance reasons, only so many concurrent loads (other customer ASM loads) run at one time. If the ASM load queue is full, the waiting ASM load begins running as soon as a slot becomes available. Site performance is a high priority for Ariba's customers, which means that you might encounter fluctuations in ASM data load schedules.

Thank you,

Melissa

Hello Melissa,

Thanks for the answer!

So if I understood correctly the ASM refresh frequency is fixed and unchangeable. Its value is 6 hours!

Thanks again,
