Defining Control Parameters for Data Transfer

Under  Scheduler DataSource Default Data Transfer you can override the settings you made in BW Customizing for a particular DataSource and a particular update mode.

More information: Maintaining Data Transfer Control Parameters for DataSources

Defining the Maximum Wait Time Before a Request is Determined to have an Error

Under  Scheduler Timeout Time you define the maximum wait time before the system determines a request for this InfoPackage to have an error. If the system has not received any (additional) data record before the maximum wait time has elapsed, the request is assigned the error status.

You can use this function to override the system-wide setting for a particular InfoPackage. The default setting for each InfoPackage is the same as the system-wide setting you made under  Monitor Settings , or in BW Customizing.

Defining the Request Status for Warnings

Under  Scheduler Treatment of Warnings you define how the system reacts to any warnings that appear; that is, whether a request for this InfoPackage is given the green, yellow, or red status in such a case. You can use this function to override the system-wide setting for a particular InfoPackage. The default setting for each InfoPackage is the same as the system-wide setting you made under  Monitor Settings , or in BW Customizing.

Defining the Request Status if there is no Data in the Source System

Under  Scheduler Color of Traffic Light for Empty Request you define how the system reacts if there is no data in the source system for the data request.

Restricting the Number of Selection Values

Under  Extras Restrict Number of Selection Values you can set a indicator for the InfoPackage stipulating that a maximum of 1000 single and interval selection can be defined. In the default setting, this indicator is set.

Performing an Automatic Metadata Comparison for a Data Request from SAP Source Systems

Under  Extras Synchronize Metadata you can define that a metadata comparison of the DataSource in BW with the source system takes place, and that the DataSource is replicated if necessary.

For reasons of compatibility the indicator for DataSources 3.x is not set in the default setting. For DataSources in the dataflow with transformation, the indicator is set.

More information: Replication of DataSources in the section Replication for Data Request.

Test Delete Selection at Start

If you want to automatically delete or cancel requests for the InfoCube after loading you can go to  Scheduler Test Delete Selections at Start and specify whether the requests are to be deleted or canceled with or without the system displaying a warning.

Defining Parallel Execution of Processes

Under  Extras PSA -> DTA Parallel you can set the maximum number of parallel processes for the update process from DataSource 3.x of this InfoPackage to the defined data targets.

More information: BW Background Management, Logs and Tools

Displaying Initialization for a DataSource

For InfoPackages that can load deltas, you can display all initializations for the DataSource under  Scheduler Initialization Options for Source System .

More information: Tab page: Updating in the section Initialization of Delta Process.

Denoting a Request as a Repair Full Request

You can use a request that was denoted as a repair request using  Scheduler Repair Full Request to perform a full update in any InfoProvider, even if this InfoProvider already contains data from an initialization run or deltas for this DataSource / source system combination, and has overlapping selection conditions.

More information: Tab page: Updating in the section Full Update.

Defining Parallel Execution of Processes

Under  Extras Load New DataSource in Parallel you can set the maximum number of parallel processes for the transfer process from a file source system to a DataSource of object type RSDS.
