Initial Load - Time saving

[Sankar_Aravind]

First of all Thanks to SAP Community.

Dear Team,

My query is related to the below thread.

https://answers.sap.com/questions/7101938/filter-condition-in-abap-initial-load-job.html

As I understood, the suggestions provided are based on Memory size to resolve the load error. However , any suggestions to put some filter criteria for this initial load (especially reading user pass) as asked in that thread or any other ways to break into smaller chunks so that the read time will be less based on some condition either by alphabet order of users or business unit code or other suggestions.

Thanks,

Aravind.

Hi,

just some thoughts... You can also use an entry script within the FromSAP pass where you can place filter criteria as you need. This will speed up the whole job as many other passes efer to the data you read during the first steps. Furthermore, I noticed that a high share of the overall runtime is spent in IDM processing passes like WriteABAPUsersRolePrivilegeAssigments. The best way, to keep the runtime acceptable as well as to avoid later problems is to cleanup the backends first. If you push junk into IDM, you'll get junk out of it...

regards, Richard

Hi Aravind,

it is possible to filter the FromSAP pass and this is realy important when you have scheduled jobs (BACKCHANNEL jobs) which run regulary (by design) or when you have INITIAL LOADS with high amount of data (time saving).

To filter the FromSAP passes you need to enhance the "Source" Tab of the FromSAP pass with some filter parameters. There were some documents/ blogs in SAP IDM 7.2.

Rapidly I have the following link for you. I hope this will help you. https://answers.sap.com/questions/7101938/filter-condition-in-abap-initial-load-job.html

I did this in serveral projects. If you have additional questions or some problems witht the filter, feel free do post here additional questions.

BR, Christoph
