Starting the Tool and Initial Screen 

To go to the runtime analysis initial screen, choose the appropriate menu path:

Starting from	Choose
Any screen	System ® Utilities ® Runtime Analysis ® Execute
The initial screen of the ABAP Workbench	Test ® Runtime Analysis (SAP Easy Access)
The initial screen of the ABAP Editor	Program ® Execute ® Runtime Analysis
The ABAP Editor	Utilities ® More Utilities ® Runtime Analysis

Choosing any of these menu paths leads to the runtime analysis initial screen, where the following main functions are available:

·        Tips & Tricks

·        Setting the measurement restrictions

·        Starting the runtime analysis in the current session

·        Starting the runtime analysis in a parallel session

·        Display and process performance files

 

 

In the simplest case, you would enter a short description and a measurement object (transaction, program, function module) to run the analysis in the current session.

In the Measurement Restrictions group box, you can make more specific restrictions for the runtime analysis. For example, you may want to include only certain statements or time intervals.

From the initial screen, you can specify whether the analysis should run in the same session or in a parallel session using the Enable/Disable button.

If you already executed a measurement, you can evaluate and process performance files in the Performance File group box.
