Displaying Load from External Systems
In the workload monitor, you can display the workload in different Analysis Views, each of which displays a particular aspect of the workload. One of these aspects is the question of how much workload in a system arises on the basis of actions from other systems.
If there is no connection to another SAP system in a system landscape, this analysis view does not exist.
- Start the Workload Monitor by calling transaction ST03.
- In the Workload tree, choose the instance and period to be analyzed.
- Choose
Analysis Views → 
Load from External Systems. - The system displays the usual output area, in which the requested workload statistics are displayed.
The output area displays the most important workload data that was triggered by actions in external systems, grouped by different points of view on five tab pages. Each line contains the data from a specific external system.
You can break down the list further by action and user using the Aggregation dropdown menu. You can display additional details by double-clicking a line.
A special authorization (profile S_TOOLS_EXE) is required to display user-specific data.
When a transaction is started, a unique ID, the trans ID, is generated. This is transferred together with the data during Remote Function Calls (RFC) (as of SAP R/3 4.6D). This ID is retained even for RFCs over multiple systems, meaning that it is possible to identify the system that is at the start of the chain and that originally triggered the action.
