Display Query performance in WAD

All
Is there a way to display the query performance statistics in the report result for a web report created in the WAD (is there a standard template/web object?
Eg display number of records read and time taken for query result.
I am sure I have seen this in SAP demos but don't know if it is a standard content offering
Thanks
Gidon

Thanks, very helpfull.
I´m using BI 7.0
However, when I do as you suggested, I still get the query name, not the query view name.
The query view should be selected dynamically from the view that is displayed at that moment.
Also, can you incorporate saved views from the Bex Portfolio and display their names?

Display Query View in WAD

Hi,
Anybody knows how to display the selected QUERY VIEW Description (i.e. in a text box) in a web template?
(I know you can select a Query View in a drop down, so it should be possible!)
Thanks,
Max

Query Performance - Analyzer vs WAD

Hi experts,
We've been having user complaints regarding performance in BW. The queries are accessed using Analyzer/Excel interface. As a test I've tried comparing opening the query through Analyzer and then through Web Application Designer. With Excel my load from S900 was taking almost 2 minutes. With the Web Browser my initial load was just 30 seconds! This is great however, this number is deceiving because it's only showing me a subset of the data; the first 25% of the data is shown and if I want to view more I have to click 'next page' (called 'Next Rows' on screen). So the subsequent set of records (say 25-50%) then takes another 30 seconds. So if you hit Next page each time you will end up getting 4 loads of 30 seconds each thus the same performance as Excel (2 minutes total wait), although maybe less stressful to sit and watch.
QUESTION:
It seems like the subsequent loads are taking 30 seconds because they are re-querying the back-end data (the S900 Cube) instead of re-querying the resultset. Is that true? Do you see my problem? Is there a better way to do this to improve performance?
Thanks for any help you can provide!

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,
Guru.

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.

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.

23. Within the free characteristics, filter on the least granular objects first and make sure those come first in the order.
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.

Reg: Process Chain, query performance tuning steps

Hi All,
I come across a question like, There is a process chain of 20 processes.out of which 5 processes are completed at the 6th step error occured and it cannot be rectified. I should start the chain again from the 7th step.If i go to a prticular step i can do that particular step, How can i start the entair chain again from step 7.i know that i need to use a function module but i dont know the name of FM. Please somebody help me out.
Please let me know the steps involved in query performance tuning and aggregate tuning.
Thanks & Regards
Omkar.K

Hi,
Process Chain
Method 1 (when it fails in a step/request)
/people/siegfried.szameitat/blog/2006/02/26/restarting-processchains
How is it possible to restart a process chain at a failed step/request?
Sometimes, it doesn't help to just set a request to green status in order to run the process chain from that step on to the end.
You need to set the failed request/step to green in the database as well as you need to raise the event that will force the process chain to run to the end from the next request/step on.
Therefore you need to open the messages of a failed step by right clicking on it and selecting 'display messages'.
In the opened popup click on the tab 'Chain'.
In a parallel session goto transaction se16 for table rspcprocesslog and display the entries with the following selections:
1. copy the variant from the popup to the variante of table rspcprocesslog
2. copy the instance from the popup to the instance of table rspcprocesslog
3. copy the start date from the popup to the batchdate of table rspcprocesslog
Press F8 to display the entries of table rspcprocesslog.
Now open another session and goto transaction se37. Enter RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH as the name of the function module and run the fm in test mode.
Now copy the entries of table rspcprocesslog to the input parameters of the function module like described as follows:
1. rspcprocesslog-log_id -> i_logid
2. rspcprocesslog-type -> i_type
3. rspcprocesslog-variante -> i_variant
4. rspcprocesslog-instance -> i_instance
5. enter 'G' for parameter i_state (sets the status to green).
Now press F8 to run the fm.
Now the actual process will be set to green and the following process in the chain will be started and the chain can run to the end.
Of course you can also set the state of a specific step in the chain to any other possible value like 'R' = ended with errors, 'F' = finished, 'X' = cancelled ....
Check out the value help on field rspcprocesslog-state in transaction se16 for the possible values.
Query performance tuning
General tips
Using aggregates and compression.
Using less and complex cell definitions if possible.
1. Avoid using too many nav. attr
2. Avoid RKF and CKF
3. Many chars in row.
By using T-codes ST03 or ST03N
Go to transaction ST03 > switch to expert mode > from left side menu > and there in system load history and distribution for a particual day > check query execution time.

/people/andreas.vogel/blog/2007/03/16/how-to-read-st03n-datasets-from-db
Try table rsddstats to get the statistics
Using cache memoery will decrease the loading time of the report.
Run reporting agent at night and sending results to email.This will ensure use of OLAP cache. So later report execution will retrieve the result faster from the OLAP cache.
Also try
1. Use different parameters in ST03 to see the two important parameters aggregation ratio and records transferred to F/E to DB selected.
2. Use the program SAP_INFOCUBE_DESIGNS (Performance of BW infocubes) to see the aggregation ratio for the cube. If the cube does not appear in the list of this report, try to run RSRV checks on the cube and aggregates.
Go to SE38 > Run the program SAP_INFOCUBE_DESIGNS
It will shown dimension Vs Fact tables Size in percent.If you mean speed of queries on a cube as performance metric of cube,measure query runtime.
3. --- sign is the valuation of the aggregate. You can say -3 is the valuation of the aggregate design and usage. ++ means that its compression is good and access is also more (in effect, performance is good). If you check its compression ratio, it must be good. -- means the compression ratio is not so good and access is also not so good (performance is not so good).The more is the positives...more is useful the aggregate and more it satisfies the number of queries. The greater the number of minus signs, the worse the evaluation of the aggregate. The larger the number of plus signs, the better the evaluation of the aggregate.
if "-----" then it means it just an overhead. Aggregate can potentially be deleted and "+++++" means Aggregate is potentially very useful.

4. Run your query in RSRT and run the query in the debug mode. Select "Display Aggregates Found" and "Do not use cache" in the debug mode. This will tell you if it hit any aggregates while running. If it does not show any aggregates, you might want to redesign your aggregates for the query.
Also your query performance can depend upon criteria and since you have given selection only on one infoprovider...just check if you are selecting huge amount of data in the report
Check for the query read mode in RSRT.(whether its A,X or H)..advisable read mode is X.
5. In BI 7 statistics need to be activated for ST03 and BI admin cockpit to work.
By implementing BW Statistics Business Content - you need to install, feed data and through ready made reports which for analysis.

You can go to T-Code DB20 which gives you all the performance related information like
Partitions
Databases
Schemas
Buffer Pools
Tablespaces etc
use tool RSDDK_CHECK_AGGREGATE in se38 to check for the corrupt aggregates
If aggregates contain incorrect data, you must regenerate them.

Bad Query Performance

Hi Experts,
I have a Query which was built on a multiprovider,Which has a slow preformance.
I think the main problem comes from selecting to many records from
I think it selects 1,1 million rows to display about 500 rows in the result.
Another point could be that the complicated restricted and calculated keyfigures, especially might spend a lot of time in the OLAP processor.
Here are the Statistics of the Query.
OLAP Initialization      : 3,186906
Wait Time, User         :   56,971169
OLAP: Settings               0,983193
Read Cache                     0,015642
Delete Cache                   0,019030
Write Cache                    0,087655
Data Manager                   462,039167
OLAP: Data Selection      0,671566
OLAP: Data Transfer       1,257884.
ST03 Stat:
%OLAP       :22,74
%DB           :77,18
OLAP Time :29,2
DBTime        :99,1
It seems that the maximum time is consuming in the Database
Any suggestion to speed up this Query response time would be great.
Thanks in advance.

Tuning query performance

Dear experts,
I have a question regarding as the performance of a BW query.
It takes 10 minutes to display about 23 thousands lines.
This query read the data from an ODS object.
According to the "where" clause in the "select" statement monitored via Oracle session when the query was running, I created an index for this ODS object.
After rerunning the query, I found that the index had been taken by Oracle in reading this table (estimated cost is reduced to 2 from about 3000).
However, it takes the same time as before.
Is there any other reason or other factors that I should consider in tuning the performance of this query?K
Thanks in advance

Hi David,
Query performance when reporting on ODS object is slower compared to infocubes, infosets, multiproviders etc because of no aggregates and other performance techinques in DSO.
Basically for DSO/ODS you need to turn on the BEx reporting flag, which again is an overhead for query execution and affects performance.
To improve the performance when reporting on ODS you can create secondary indexes from BW workbench.
Please check the below links.
[Re: performance issues of ODS]
[Which criteria to follow to pick InfoObj. as secondary index of ODS?;
Hope this helps.

Haritha.

How to improve query performance using infoset

I create one infoset that including 4 char.and 3 DSO which all are time-dependent.When query run, system show very poor perfomance, sometimes no data show in BEX anayzer. In this case I have to close BEX analyzer at first and then open it again, after that it show real results. It seems very strange. Does anybody has experience on infoset performance improvement. pls info, thanks!

Open the Aggregates...and observe VALUATION and USAGE columns.
"---" sign is the valuation of the aggregate. You can say -3 is the valuation of the aggregate design and usage. ++ means that its compression is good and access is also more (in effect, performance is good). If you check its compression ratio, it must be good. -- means the compression ratio is not so good and access is also not so good (performance is not so good).The more is the positives...more is useful the aggregate and more it satisfies the number of queries.

In valuation column,if there are more positive sign it means that the aggregate performance is good and it is useful to have this aggregate.But if it has more negative sign it means we need not better use that aggregate.
In usage column,we will come to know how far the aggregate has been used in query.
Thus we can check the performance of the aggregate.

By implementing BW Statistics Business Content - you need to install, feed data and through ready made reports which for analysis.

You can go to T-Code DB20 which gives you all the performance related information like
Partitions
Databases
Schemas
Buffer Pools
Tablespaces etc
use tool RSDDK_CHECK_AGGREGATE in se38 to check for the corrupt aggregates
If aggregates contain incorrect data, you must regenerate them.
202469 - Using aggregate check tool
Note 646402 - Programs for checking aggregates (as of BW 3.0B SP15)
You can find out whether an aggregate is usefull or useless you can find out through a proccess of checking the tables RSDDSTATAGGRDEF*
Run the query in RSRT with statistics execute and come back you will get STATUID... copy this and check in the table...
This gives you exactly which infoobjects it's hitting, if any one of the object is missing it's useless aggregate.

Check SE11 > table RSDDAGGRDIR . You can find the last callup in the table.

Query Performance OBIEE 11.1.1.5-Essbase 9.3.1

I have installed OBIEE 11.1.1.5 and Essbase 9.3.1 on a PC with 8GB ram and core i7, when I run a report or dashboard for the first time (*no data stored in cache*) the data display is very slow (*takes up to 15 min*), if I run a second time the same report or dashboard display and is instantaneous (as already exists in the query cache), what way I can get the cached data without having any questions?, some settings?, or there is a parameter that is not considering?, I can give some tip to improve query performance? thanks.

One good place to start troubleshooting what took so long is - Take the logical sql and run it against the database to see how long it is taking to retrieve results back.

Query Performance Related Issue

Hi all,
We have a problem when we are executing the Query in BI 7.0. that is
When we are executing the query first time it will take 2 minutes time .
when we are executing the same query second time ( With out logoff the query designer ) it will take 5seconds.
please give me some inputs how it is taking more time at the first time ?
How to reduce the query execution time for the first time?
Already we have tried all the Query performance options.
Thanks & regards,
Kiran Manyam.

Hi Kiran,
As the others pointed, when you have executed the query for the 2nd time, it might have read from the cache.
Do the following to investigate the performance issue:
1) Go to RSRT and run your query in "Execute in debug mode"
2) Select "Display Statistics Data", check "Do not use cache"
3) After running the query, press the back button. The system will show a the statistics summary.
4) Analyze what activity has the highest run time.
5) If Data Manager time is >= than 30% of the query time and the if the ratio of number of records selected VS the number of records transfered is > 10% then, build an aggregate to help the query run time. This sacrifices data load time but will improve query execution time.
To know what aggregate will help, run the query in debug mode again and choose the option "Display aggregates found". If the query did not hit an aggregate, the names of the cubes will appear. Use the data in the suggestions column (maked with S: ) as a basis for your aggregate.
Hope this helps.

Input ready query performance

Hi Experts,
We are working on input ready queries. But the input ready reports are taking lot of time around 10 to 15 mins to display the results and hence the planning functions like save are also taking lot of time.
We can't use the OLAP cache as these reports are developed on Aggregation level.
Could somebody guide me how to improve the performance of input ready queries.
Thanks in Advance,
Raj

Hi
You can do repartitioning and reclustering
Repartitiong help you to partition the cube even after data uploaded in cube.Similar to partitioning but you do after cube load
Reclustering enables related data to be stored in same extent in the database and increase the query performance . Similar to clustering but you do after cube load
There are heap of material available in BI section of SDN which you can make use of

Improving a query performance

Hello gurus,
We do use RSRT, ST03(expert mode) to check if a query is running slowly. what actually do we check there and how?
Can anyone please explain me how its done.
Thanks in advance
S N

Hi SN,
You need to check the DB time taken by the queries and the summarization ratio for the queries. As a rule of thumb if the summarization ration > 10 and the database time > 30% then creating an aggregate will improve the query performance.
BY summarization ration i mean ratio between the number of records read from the cube to the number of records displayed in the report.
Thx,
Soumya

Query performance on Inventory Cube

Hi All,
        I have a query on Inventory Cube with non cumulative key figures, when I ran a query with them its taking 60 to 70 minutes. When I ran the same query by removing non cumulatives its displaing results in 25 seconds. Is there any way we can improve query performance which is effected by non cumulative keyfigures.
    I have checked the performance related tools like RSRV on cube and master data no errors, in RSRT> execute debug the more time query consumes in data manager, ST03> DB and data manager time and also unassigned time is more.
    I know that query consumes time because of non cumulative keyfigures as it need to perform calculations on fly but its taking lot more than that. I apprecate your inputs to this query in advance.
I will reward points.

Hi Anil,
    Its nice to see you. We have compressed the cube with marker update and we are using only two infosources to the cube(BF and UM). As there are 150 queries on that cube I don't want to build aggregate especially for that query. I also treid DB stats refresh, there is a process chain to delete and recreate indexes, analysed cube and master data in RSRV etc. it didn't really helped me. Would you please suggest any good solution for this. I apprecaite it in advance.
When i check in Application log in Cube Manage it is displayed that Mass Upsert of Markers update so I assumed that markers are updated.
Regards
Satish Arra.
