When you monitor IDoc interfaces, you must define a dynamic time frame to monitor. Select a starting point and, optionally, an offset value.
Optional: Specify a time frame end. By default, the system collects data until the current time.
To specify an offset value, use the following syntax: <placeholder><operator (+ or -)><offset value>. For more information, see the examples below.
Note
Days are calendar days, not only working days.
The week starts on Monday.
Caution
Performance impairment
Long time frames can severely impair performance of the managed system.
Specify the time frame carefully.
To monitor longer time frames, use SAP NetWeaver BW reporting.
Placeholder | Description |
---|---|
$TIMEM | Time-stamp now (offset in minutes) |
$TIMEH | Time-stamp now (offset in hours) |
$TIMED | Time-stamp now (offset in days) |
$TODAY | Current day (offset in days) |
$FDOCW | First day of current week (offset in days) |
$LDOCW | Last day of current week (offset in days) |
$FDOPW | First day of previous week (offset in days) |
$LDOPW | Last day of previous week (offset in days) |
$DELTA | Delta read (only IDocs created since last data collection) Note In the $Delta placeholder
End of the note. |
Example
Offset values | Meaning |
---|---|
$TIMEM-45 | Last 45 min. (from now) |
$TIMEH-10 | Last 10 hours (fromnow) |
$TIMED-3 | Last 3 days (from now) |
$TODAY-2 | Last 2 days (full calendar days) |
$FDOPW+1 | Tuesday of last week |
Example
To collect data in a time frame from 10 days ago to 2 days ago, define a start and an end time:
Start of time frame: $TIMED-10
End of time frame: $TIMED-2
