From the Technical Information screen, you get an overview of important, technical, reference numbers for a query.
In order to access the Technical Information screen, choose a query from the Query Monitor screen and then Technical Info.
The technical information is created automatically.
The technical information is grouped by category for the selected query. Depending on the query definition, all or part of the categories are displayed. The first line of the HTML control contains links to the categories that are displayed in table form in the lower area of the page.
System entries are specified in the first column for some of the categories:
The symbol means that the value of the technical reference numbers corresponds exactly to the system recommendation.
The symbol means that the value of the technical reference numbers possibly does not correspond to the system recommendation.
The symbol means that the value of the technical reference numbers does not correspond to the system recommendation. In this case, changes may be useful. This does not necessary mean that an error exists.

Statistics
This section runs the statistics by specifying the current and maximum number:
Invisible Drilldown Characteristics
If a query has invisible drilldown characteristics, they are displayed in this section with their technical name and description, for example:
0CURRENCY Units or currency field
Cache-Relevant Data
In addition, this section includes important time stamps:
This time stamp influences the invalidation of the cache. If the last time stamp for a cache entry for the selected query is older than one of the above-named time stamps, then the cache is rebuilt.
Optimization Information
After a query has been executed for the first time, the OLAP processor determines the optimal initial size of internal tables and generates the report automatically afterwards. The system shows the date and time of this last update. If the query definition is not changed, a new optimization does not take place automatically. You are able to force a new optimization however by choosing the link Optimize Again.
Load Size for a Generated Report
This section restricts ABAP programs. If these are not complied with, then the report is not generated, and the query is not executed.
The following functions are available in the screen toolbar:

What You Need to Know |
Display Gen. Report |
Goes to the ABAP editor. You see the ABAP program that was generated for the query you selected. (You can find the name of the generated report under OLAP-Relevant Data.) |
Query Def. Designer |
Goes to the ABAP debugger. You see the code for the interface between the BEx Query Designer and the OLAP processor |
Query Def. Processor |
Goes to the ABAP debugger. You see a few lines of the coding according to the above-named interface. For this break point, the complex data structure SX_REPORT and internal control tables are displayed for the query |
