Create a Task to Refresh Sessions
Use
This task checks the target system to find out whether new data needs to be collected for a session. New data is needed if a new session was created or if an existing session was changed. If the task finds a session for which new data needs to be collected, the task creates a 'Request Session Data' task in the local system.
The new information about the sessions can come from either the SAP Support Portal or your SAP Solution Manager system.
