Use

In the workload monitor, you can display the workload in different analysis views which highlight the workload from a particular perspective. One of these aspects is the question of which transactions cause which workload.

Prerequisites

If you want to display the transaction details for specific transactions, you need to activate the Transaction Detail Profiles for these transactions first (see: Displaying Transaction Details).

Procedure

...

       1.      Start the Workload Monitor by calling transaction ST03.

       2.      In the Workload tree, choose the instance and period to be analyzed.

       3.      Choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Analysis Views This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Transaction Profile.

       4.      Choose the desired analysis view: Standard, EarlyWatch, or Details.

       5.      The system displays the usual output area, in which the requested transaction profile is displayed.

Result

In the Standard and EarlyWatch analysis views, the output area shows the most important workload data, broken down by transactions executed. You can use the Task Type dropdown menu to restrict the view to a particular task type.

You can choose the different levels of data aggregation using the Aggregation dropdown menu. By default, the system displays the Transaction level. Depending on the level that you select, the data is summarized in accordance with the component hierarchy by:

·        Packages (previously: development classes)

·        Subapplications (BC-CCM)

·        Applications (BC, FI, CO, and so on)

You can display more information for a data record by double-clicking the line for the corresponding transaction profile. The system opens a second window to display this detailed data. You can also choose different levels of data aggregation here – although the level in the detailed view can be at most one level beneath the level in the main view. The entries that you cannot choose in the dropdown menus are grayed out.

Note

You require a special authorization (profile S_TOOLS_EX) to display user-specific detailed data.

As long as you are displaying daily data for the current day, the system displays the Single Records button. You can use this button to directly call the transaction STAD with the selection parameters Instance, Transaction/Report, and, if necessary, User.

There are three transaction profiles with the following special features:
