Query Performance - Free charactristics

Hi Gurus,
Does the no. of free characteristics in a query influence the performance of the query? Especially in case of input-ready query.
Thanks,
Magnus

Free char. will not affect the query performance.
SAP BW suggest to put the char. as free char. to avoid the large volume of data when open the query.
If end user need to input lots of parameters when open the query, i think you'd better check the OLAP Cache.
If the data for the query is not in the cache, BW have to fetch the data from cube and it definately affect the performance.
You can test the query in RSRT to find the result.

How to improve query performance built on a ODS

Hi,
I've built a report on FI_GL ODS (BW3.5). The report execution time takes almost 1hr.
Is there any method to improve or optimize th query performance that build on ODS.
The ODS got huge volume of data ~ 300 Million records for 2 years.
Thanx in advance,

Hi Raj,
Here are some few tips which helps you in improving ur query performance
Checklist for Query Performance
1. If exclusions exist, make sure they exist in the global filter area. Try to remove exclusions by subtracting out inclusions.
2. Use Constant Selection to ignore filters in order to move more filters to the global filter area. (Use ABAPer to test and validate that this ensures better code)
3. Within structures, make sure the filter order exists with the highest level filter first.
4. Check code for all exit variables used in a report.
5. Move Time restrictions to a global filter whenever possible.
6. Within structures, use user exit variables to calculate things like QTD, YTD. This should generate better code than using overlapping restrictions to achieve the same thing. (Use ABAPer to test and validate that this ensures better code).
7. When queries are written on multiproviders, restrict to InfoProvider in global filter whenever possible. MultiProvider (MultiCube) queries require additional database table joins to read data compared to those queries against standard InfoCubes (InfoProviders), and you should therefore hardcode the infoprovider in the global filter whenever possible to eliminate this problem.
8. Move all global calculated and restricted key figures to local as to analyze any filters that can be removed and moved to the global definition in a query. Then you can change the calculated key figure and go back to utilizing the global calculated key figure if desired
9. If Alternative UOM solution is used, turn off query cache.
10. Set read mode of query based on static or dynamic. Reading data during navigation minimizes the impact on the R/3 database and application server resources because only data that the user requires will be retrieved. For queries involving large hierarchies with many nodes, it would be wise to select Read data during navigation and when expanding the hierarchy option to avoid reading data for the hierarchy nodes that are not expanded. Reserve the Read all data mode for special queriesu2014for instance, when a majority of the users need a given query to slice and dice against all dimensions, or when the data is needed for data mining. This mode places heavy demand on database and memory resources and might impact other SAP BW processes and tasks.
11. Turn off formatting and results rows to minimize Frontend time whenever possible.
12. Check for nested hierarchies. Always a bad idea.
13. If "Display as hierarchy" is being used, look for other options to remove it to increase performance.
14. Use Constant Selection instead of SUMCT and SUMGT within formulas.
15. Do review of order of restrictions in formulas. Do as many restrictions as you can before
calculations. Try to avoid calculations before restrictions.
17. Turn off warning messages on queries.
18. Check to see if performance improves by removing text display (Use ABAPer to test and validate that this ensures better code).
19. Check to see where currency conversions are happening if they are used.
20. Check aggregation and exception aggregation on calculated key figures. Before aggregation is generally slower and should not be used unless explicitly needed.
21. Avoid Cell Editor use if at all possible.
22. Make sure queries are regenerated in production using RSRT after changes to statistics, consistency changes, or aggregates.
23. Within the free characteristics, filter on the least granular objects first and make sure those come first in the order.

System/Query Performance: What to look for in these tcodes

Hi
I have been researching on system/query performance in general in the BW environment.
I have seen tcodes such as
ST02 :Buffer/Table analysis
ST03 :System workload
ST03N:
ST04 : Database monitor
ST05 : SQL trace
ST06 :
ST66:
ST21:
ST22:
SE30: ABAP runtime analysis
RSRT:Query performance
RSRV: Analysis and repair of BW objects
For example, Note 948066 provides descriptions of these tcodes but what I am not getting are thresholds and their implications. e.g. ST02 gave tune summary screen with several rows and columns (?not sure what they are called) with several numerical values.
Is there some information on these rows/columns such as the typical range for each of these columns and rows; and the acceptable figures, and which numbers under which columns suggest what problems?
Basically some type of a metric for each of these indicators provided by these performance tcodes.
Something similar to when you are using an Operating system, and the CPU performance is consistently over 70% which may suggest the need to upgrade CPU; while over 90% suggests your system is about to crush, etc.
I will appreciate some guidelines on the use of these tcodes and from your personal experience, which indicators you pay attention to under each tcode and why?
Thanks

Query Performance - Query very slow to run

I have built a query to show payroll costings per month per employee by cost centres for the current fiscal year. The cost centres are selected with a hierarchy variable - it's quite a latrge hierarchy. The problem is the query takes ages to run - nearly ten minutes. It's built on a DSO so I cant aggregate it. Is there anything I can do to improve performance.

24. Leverage characteristics or navigational attributes rather than hierarchies. Using a hierarchy requires reading temporary hierarchy tables and creates additional overhead compared to characteristics and navigational attributes. Therefore, characteristics or navigational attributes result in significantly better query performance than hierarchies, especially as the size of the hierarchy (e.g., the number of nodes and levels) and the complexity of the selection criteria increase.
25. If hierarchies are used, minimize the number of nodes to include in the query results. Including all nodes in the query results (even the ones that are not needed or blank) slows down the query processing. The u201Cnot assignedu201D nodes in the hierarchy should be filtered out, and you should use a variable to reduce the number of hierarchy nodes selected.

Query Performance Issues

Hi Gurus,
I m woking on performance tuning at the moment and wants some tips
regarding the Query performance tuning,if anyone can helpme in that
rfrence.
the thing is that i have got an idea about the system and now the
issues r with DB space, Abap Dumps, problem in free space in table

Hi Amit
For Query performance issue u can go for :-
Aggregates : They will help u a lot to make ur query faster becuase query doesnt hits ur cube it hits the aggregates which has very less number of records in comp to ur cube
secondly i wud suggest u is use CKF in place of formulaes if any in the query
other thing is avoid upto the extent possible the use fo nav attr . if u want to use them use it upto the minimal level reason i am saying so is during the query exec whn ever there is nav attr it provides unncessary join to ur MD and thus dec query perfo
be specifc to rows and columns if u r not sure of a kf or a char then better put it in a free char.
use filters if possible
if u follow these m sure ur query perfo will inc
Assign points if applicable

Inventory Ageing query performance

Hi All,
I have created inventory ageing query on our custom cube which is replica of 0IC_C03. We have data from 2003 onwards. the performance of the query is very poor the system almost hangs. I tried to create aggregates to improve performance but its failed. What i should do to improve the performance and why the aggregate filling is failed. Cube have compressed data. Pls guide.
Regards:
Jitendra

Inaddition to the above posts
Check the below points ... and take action accordingly to increase the query performance.
mainly check --Is the Cube data Compressed. it will increase the performance of the query..
1)If exclusions exist, make sure they exist in the global filter area. Try to remove exclusions by subtracting out inclusions.
2)Check code for all exit variables used in a report.
3)Check the read mode for the query. recommended is H.
4)If Alternative UOM solution is used, turn off query cache.
5)Use Constant Selection instead of SUMCT and SUMGT within formulas.
6)Check aggregation and exception aggregation on calculated key figures. Before aggregation is generally slower and should not be used unless explicitly needed.
7)Check if large hierarchies are used and the entry hierarchy level is as deep as possible. This limits the levels of the hierarchy that must be processed.
Use SE16 on the inclusion tables and use the List of Value feature on the column successor and predecessor to see which entry level of the hierarchy is used.
8)Within the free characteristics, filter on the least granular objects first and make sure those come first in the order.
9)If hierarchies are used, minimize the number of nodes to include in the query results. Including all nodes in the query results (even the ones that are not needed or blank) slows down the query processing.
10)Check the user exits usage involved in OLAP run time?
11)Use Constant Selection instead of SUMCT and SUMGT within formulas.
12)
Turn on the BW Statistics: RSA1, choose Tools -> BW statistics for InfoCubes(Choose OLAP and WHM for your relevant Cubes)
To check the Query Performance problem
Use ST03N -> BW System load values to recognize the problem. Use the number given in table 'Reporting - InfoCubes:Share of total time (s)' to check if one of the columns %OLAP, %DB, %Frontend shows a high number in all InfoCubes.
You need to run ST03N in expert mode to get these values
based on the analysis and the values taken from the above - Check if an aggregate is suitable or setting OLAP etc.

Query performance on remote/virtual cube

All:
We are on BW 3.5.
Can anyone suggest anything about improving query performance on remote/virtual cubes? Analysis shows query performance is sufferring at the database level.
I am looking for some advise beyond hardware and database parameters. It seems current hardware and database parametrs work fine with basis cubes.
Another solution is datamart.But can anything be done before/without going to datamart?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
In this case try to find where more time is utilized by using the ST03.
if there is more time consuming in front end, rearrange the query by using less in the row and using more free chars and filter areas. using the variable also will work.
use reporting agent and schedule the query in background to fill the cache and rerun the query.

Query Performance on ODS

Hi all,
        I have an ODS with around 23000 records. The ODS has around 20 fields in it (3 key fields). I built a query on the ODS. The User only inputs Cost center Hierarchy. The report does not have any calculations. It is a direct view of the fields, but the report is taking a long time to run if I select first 2nd or 3rd level of the hierarchy as the starting point. If I select the 5th or 6th level for the hierarchy then the query output is fast. With just 23000 records on the ODS I thought query performance should be fast for any level of hierarchy.
I even created an index on Costcenter, even then no improvement in performance. Is there any way to achieve faster query performance on the ODS.
Thanks,
Prabhu.

Technical content cubes[ if installed ] gives more generic statistics of query run time...
RSRT option mentioned by Sudheer is more targeted approach.
The same RSRT can be help full to do the following....[ from help.sap]
Definition
The read mode determines how the OLAP processor gets data during navigation. You can set the mode in Customizing for an InfoProvider and in the Query Monitor for a query.
Use
The following types are supported:
       1.      Query to be read when you navigate or expand hierarchies (H)
The amount of data transferred from the database to the OLAP processor is the smallest in this mode. However, it has the highest number of read processes.
In the following mode Query to read data during navigation, the data for the fully expanded hierarchy is requested for a hierarchy drilldown. In the Query to be read when you navigate or expand hierarchies mode, the data across the hierarchy is aggregated and transferred to the OLAP processor on the hierarchy level that is the lowest in the start list. When expanding a hierarchy node, the children of this node are then read.
You can improve the performance of queries with large presentation hierarchies by creating aggregates on a middle hierarchy level that is greater or the same as the hierarchy start level.
       2.      Query to read data during navigation (X)
The OLAP processor only requests data that is needed for each navigational status of the query in the Business Explorer. The data that is needed is read for each step in the navigation.
In contrast to the Query to be read when you navigate or expand hierarchies mode, presentation hierarchies are always imported completely on a leaf level here.
The OLAP processor can read data from the main memory when the nodes are expanded.
When accessing the database, the best aggregate table is used and, if possible, data is aggregated in the database.
       3.      Query to read all data at once (A)
There is only one read process in this mode. When you execute the query in the Business Explorer, all data in the main memory area of the OLAP processor that is needed for all possible navigational steps of this query is read. During navigation, all new navigational states are aggregated and calculated from the data from the main memory.
The read mode Query to be read when you navigate or expand hierarchies significantly improves performance in almost all cases compared to the other two modes. The reason for this is that only the data the user wants to see is requested in this mode.
Compared to the Query to be read when you navigate or expand hierarchies, the setting Query to read data during navigation only effects performance for queries with presentation hierarchies.
Unlike the other two modes, the setting Query to Read All Data At Once also has an effect on performance for queries with free characteristics. The OLAP processor aggregates on the corresponding query view. For this reason, the aggregation concept, that is, working with pre-aggregated data, is least supported in the Query to read all data at once mode.
We recommend you choose the mode Query to be read when you navigate or expand hierarchies.
Only choose a different read mode in exceptional circumstances. The read mode Query to read all data at once may be of use in the following cases:
§         The InfoProvider does not support selection. The OLAP processor reads significantly more data than the query needs anyway.
§         A user exit is active in a query. This prevents data from already being aggregated in the database.

Query performance decreases dramatically after adding 0AGE characteristic

Hi gurus,
I've added 0AGE as a free characteristic to a query based on 0PAPA_C02 cube and the query performance falls down dramatically.
In transaction RSRT I have compared statistics for two identical queries, one with 0AGE, and one without it.
Total DBTRANS changed from 1.528 to 284.342
Total DBSEL didn't change.
"OLAP: Data Selection" changed from 0,207267 to 232,879858
There is also a new line: OLAP: USER_EXIT with long duration: 289,386668 and counter: 6.840.863
And I am not using any user exit variable!!!! or anything...
What may be wrong and how can I fix that?
Regards,
Dorota

Found the answer.
There is a BAPI for 0PAPA_C01 InfoCube which makes 0AGE a virtual characteristic.
It needs to be deactivated.
The BAPI name is RS_BCT_PA.

Slow Query Performance During Process Of SSAS Tabular

As part of My SSAS Tabular Process Script Task in a SSIS Package, I read all new rows from the database and insert them to Tabular database using Process Add. The process works fine but for the duration of the Process Add, user queries to my Tabular model
becomes very slow.
Is there a way to prevent the impact of Process Add on user queries? Users need near real time queries.
I am using SQL Server 2012 SP2.
Thanks

Hi AL.M,
According to your description, when you query the tabular during Process Add, the performance is slow. Right?
In Analysis Services, it's not supported to make a MDX/DAX query ignore the Process Add of the tabular. it will always query the updated tabular. In this scenario, if you really need good query performance, I suggest you create two tabular.
One is for end users to get data, the other one is used for update(full process). After the Process is done, let the users query the updated tabular.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Query performance.

Hi
I have created a procedure that accepts two bind variables from a report. The user will select one or the other, both or neither of the variables. To return the appropriate results i have created a view with the entire result set and in the procedure are a number of if statements that determine what to place in the where clause selecting from the view, depending on what variables populated.
My concern is that the query that generates the view includes several joins and in total outputs around 150,000 records and seems to be rather slow to run.
Would you recommend another solution such as placing the query in the procedure itself repeated for every if statement?
Or should I work on the query performance?
What would be the most efficient solution for my problem?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

How to improve the query performance in to report level and designer level

How to improve the query performance in to report level and designer level......?
Plz let me know the detail view......

first its all based on the design of the database, universe and the report.
at the universe Level, you have to check your Contexts very well to get the optimal performance of the universe and also your joins, keep your joins with key fields, will give you the best performance.
at the report level, try to make the reports dynamic as much as you can, (Parameters) and so on.
and when you create a paremeter try to get it match with the key fields in the database.
good luck

BW Back end
Some Tips -
1)Identify long-running extraction processes on the source system. Extraction processes are performed by several extraction jobs running on the source system. The run-time of these jobs affects the performance. Use transaction code SM37 Background Processing Job Management to analyze the run-times of these jobs. If the run-time of data collection jobs lasts for several hours, schedule these jobs to run more frequently. This way, less data is written into update tables for each run and extraction performance increases.
2)Identify high run-times for ABAP code, especially for user exits. The quality of any custom ABAP programs used in data extraction affects the extraction performance. Use transaction code SE30 ABAP/4 Run-time Analysis and then run the analysis for the transaction code RSA3 Extractor Checker. The system then records the activities of the extraction program so you can review them to identify time-consuming activities. Eliminate those long-running activities or substitute them with alternative program logic.
3)Identify expensive SQL statements. If database run-time is high for extraction jobs, use transaction code ST05 Performance Trace. On this screen, select ALEREMOTE user and then select SQL trace to record the SQL statements. Identify the time-consuming sections from the results. If the data-selection times are high on a particular SQL statement, index the DataSource tables to increase the performance of selection (see no. 6 below). While using ST05, make sure that no other extraction job is running with ALEREMOTE user.
4)Balance loads by distributing processes onto different servers if possible. If your site uses more than one BW application server, distribute the extraction processes to different servers using transaction code SM59 Maintain RFC Destination. Load balancing is possible only if the extraction program allows the option
5)Set optimum parameters for data-packet size. Packet size affects the number of data requests to the database. Set the data-packet size to optimum values for an efficient data-extraction mechanism. To find the optimum value, start with a packet size in the range of 50,000 to 100,000 and gradually increase it. At some point, you will reach the threshold at which increasing packet size further does not provide any performance increase. To set the packet size, use transaction code SBIW BW IMG Menu on the source system. To set the data load parameters for flat-file uploads, use transaction code RSCUSTV6 in BW.
6)Build indexes on DataSource tables based on selection criteria. Indexing DataSource tables improves the extraction performance, because it reduces the read times of those tables.
7)Execute collection jobs in parallel. Like the Business Content extractors, generic extractors have a number of collection jobs to retrieve relevant data from DataSource tables. Scheduling these collection jobs to run in parallel reduces the total extraction time, and they can be scheduled via transaction code SM37 in the source system.
8). Break up your data selections for InfoPackages and schedule the portions to run in parallel. This parallel upload mechanism sends different portions of the data to BW at the same time, and as a result the total upload time is reduced. You can schedule InfoPackages in the Administrator Workbench.
You can upload data from a data target (InfoCube and ODS) to another data target within the BW system. While uploading, you can schedule more than one InfoPackage with different selection options in each one. For example, fiscal year or fiscal year period can be used as selection options. Avoid using parallel uploads for high volumes of data if hardware resources are constrained. Each InfoPacket uses one background process (if scheduled to run in the background) or dialog process (if scheduled to run online) of the application server, and too many processes could overwhelm a slow server.
9). Building secondary indexes on the tables for the selection fields optimizes these tables for reading, reducing extraction time. If your selection fields are not key fields on the table, primary indexes are not much of a help when accessing data. In this case it is better to create secondary indexes with selection fields on the associated table using ABAP Dictionary to improve better selection performance.
10)Analyze upload times to the PSA and identify long-running uploads. When you extract the data using PSA method, data is written into PSA tables in the BW system. If your data is on the order of tens of millions, consider partitioning these PSA tables for better performance, but pay attention to the partition sizes. Partitioning PSA tables improves data-load performance because it's faster to insert data into smaller database tables. Partitioning also provides increased performance for maintenance of PSA tables for example, you can delete a portion of data faster. You can set the size of each partition in the PSA parameters screen, in transaction code SPRO or RSCUSTV6, so that BW creates a new partition automatically when a threshold value is reached.
11)Debug any routines in the transfer and update rules and eliminate single selects from the routines. Using single selects in custom ABAP routines for selecting data from database tables reduces performance considerably. It is better to use buffers and array operations. When you use buffers or array operations, the system reads data from the database tables and stores it in the memory for manipulation, improving performance. If you do not use buffers or array operations, the whole reading process is performed on the database with many table accesses, and performance deteriorates. Also, extensive use of library transformations in the ABAP code reduces performance; since these transformations are not compiled in advance, they are carried out during run-time.
12)Before uploading a high volume of transaction data into InfoCubes, activate the number-range buffer for dimension IDs. The number-range buffer is a parameter that identifies the number of sequential dimension IDs stored in the memory. If you increase the number range before high-volume data upload, you reduce the number of reads from the dimension tables and hence increase the upload performance. Do not forget to set the number-range values back to their original values after the upload. Use transaction code SNRO to maintain the number range buffer values for InfoCubes.
13)Drop the indexes before uploading high-volume data into InfoCubes. Regenerate them after the upload. Indexes on InfoCubes are optimized for reading data from the InfoCubes. If the indexes exist during the upload, BW reads the indexes and tries to insert the records according to the indexes, resulting in poor upload performance. You can automate the dropping and regeneration of the indexes through InfoPackage scheduling. You can drop indexes in the Manage InfoCube screen in the Administrator Workbench.
14)IDoc (intermediate document) archiving improves the extraction and loading performance and can be applied on both BW and R/3 systems. In addition to IDoc archiving, data archiving is available for InfoCubes and ODS objects.
Hope it Helps

Query Performance issue in Oracle Forms

Hi All,
I am using oracle 9i DB and forms 6i.
In query form ,qry took long time to load the data into form.
There are two tables used here.
1 table(A) contains 5 crore records another table(B) has 2 crore records.
The recods fetching range 1-500 records.
Table (A) has no index on main columns,after created the index on main columns in table A ,the query is fetched the data quickly.
But DBA team dont want to create index on table A.Because of table space problem.
If create the index on main table (A) ,then performance overhead in production.
Concurrent user capacity is 1500.
Is there any alternative methods to handle this problem.
Regards,
RS

1) What is a crore? Wikipedia seems to indicate that it's either 10,000,000 or 500,000
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crore
I'll assume that we're talking about tables with 50 million and 20 million rows, respectively.
2) Large tables with no indexes are definitely going to be slow. If you don't have the disk space to create an appropriate index, surely the right answer is to throw a bit of disk into the system.
3) I don't understand the comment "If create the index on main table (A) ,then performance overhead in production." That seems to contradict the comment you made earlier that the query performs well when you add the index. Are you talking about some other performance overhead?
