IDoc Lists: Displaying Time Distribution 

  1. In the output list, position the cursor on a message (line in the right window) or a node in the left window (all selected IDocs, all in one direction or all with a specific status).
  2. Choose Graphic: Time Distribution

    3. A graphical distribution of the IDocs is displayed. The system attempts to define a "sensible" number of horizontal bars:

    · It only displays the times at which IDocs were generated.

    · It searches for the optimal "increments" (for example hours as time steps).

    If you have "outliers" in your time frame, that is, values that are considerably higher than the others, they may be scarcely visible, as the graphic is scaled-up to the maximum level. You can avoid this by choosing a logarithmic instead of a linear scale or by reducing the scale maximum. Select the horizontal scale (axis) with the right mouse key and choose Format Axis in the context menu. In the next screen choose the Scale tab page and change the settings accordingly.

  3. You can change the output form: Choose and in the following window for example Time step...Day, in order to set the period pattern to days.
  4. To make the time axis homogeneous (each time unit is displayed), select Display zero values. In order to display only the time segments within which the IDocs were generated, leave the field blank.
