In reporting transactions as e.g. ME2A, ME2M, ME2N,... the performance might not be as good as you expect.
The reason for this is that the selection criteria you use to execute the transaction is too wide and the main key, used while searching in the table, is not filled. Please note that all the reports search the database using a primary key. All resulting datasets will be read by the system BEFORE further filtering by additional criteria takes place.
You should use the following keys for the different reporting transactions:
- Performance issues in transaction ME2B:
