Step by step usage of RSRT for Query performance

Hi,
Can I get any step by step document, how to test the query performance using RSRT?
I am sorry if this has been posted already. I tried my best to search for this but could not find this
Thanks

Is aggregate DB index is required for query performance

Hi,
Cube mange tab when i check for the aggregate DB index it shows red, here my doubt is, is the DB index is required for query performance
is the check statics should be in green?
Please let me know
Regards,
Kiran

Hi,
Yes it improves the reports performance..
Using the Check Indexes button, you can check whether indexes already exist and whether these existing indexes are of the correct type (bitmap indexes).
Yellow status display: There are indexes of the wrong type
Red status display: No indexes exist, or one or more indexes are faulty
You can also list missing indexes using transaction DB02, pushbutton Missing Indexes. If a lot of indexes are missing, it can be useful to run the ABAP reports SAP_UPDATE_DBDIFF and SAP_INFOCUBE_INDEXES_REPAIR.

Explain plan for Query performance

Hi Gurus,
I need to improve the performance of a procedure. The procedure has the below QUery. I dont have Idea on how to imrpove the perf by seeing the explain plan. Can anyone please help me to explain where I need to change the code.
The below are the code and Explain plan for the same.

OLAP Cache for Query Performance

Hi Experts,
I have below 2 Questions before we implement OLAP Cache for our Queries:
1) We have 15 imporatant queries - which do NOT have any variable/selection screen.
(question here is will it work for those kind of queries which dont have any selection screen/ variant ? ) --> client wants to prime the cache for few queries which dont have variable screen.
In this case, say if data is later filtered on any CHAR , will it take the data from Cache?
2) I have a query which initially will have few characteristics in the drill down when we first execute and users would be drilling down on many other characteristics after that. So if I want to fill OLAP cache for this query then what is the best way so that each drilldown in the query gets data from cache.
Thank you,
-Su

Hi Raghavendra,
Thanks for your response.
For first Question, Do you mean , even if we do not have any Selection varaibale on Query--we still can fill OLAP cache for it for its all values (i.e. No selection means "*") ?
If this is the case, then what we need to defile in General Precalculation (Variable assignment) while creating a new setting for the query.
Thanks,
-Su

How to improve Query Performance

Hi Friends...
I Want to improve query performance.I need following things.
1.What is the process to findout the performance?. Any transaction code's and how to use?.
2.How can I know whether the query is running good or bad ,ie. in performance praspect.
3.I want to see the values i.e. how much time it is taking to run?. and where the defect is?.
4.How to improve the query performance?. After I did the needfull things to improve performance, I want to see the query execution time. i.e. it is running fast or not?.
Eg..
Eg 1.   Need to create aggregates.
Solution: where can I create aggregates?. Now I'm in production system. So where I need to create? .i.e. indevelopment or in Quality or in Production system?.
Any chenges I need to do in Development?.Because I'm in Production system.
So please tell me solution for my questions.
Thanks

This is the oss notes of FAQ on query performance
1. What kind of tools are available to monitor the overall Query Performance?
1.     BW Statistics
2.     BW Workload Analysis in ST03N (Use Export Mode!)
3.     Content of Table RSDDSTAT
2. Do I have to do something to enable such tools?
Yes, you need to turn on the BW Statistics:
RSA1, choose Tools -> BW statistics for InfoCubes
(Choose OLAP and WHM for your relevant Cubes)
3. What kind of tools is available to analyze a specific query in    detail?
1.     Transaction RSRT
2.     Transaction RSRTRACE
4. Do I have an overall query performance problem?
i. 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 Info Cubes.
ii. You need to run ST03N in expert mode to get these values
5. What can I do if the database proportion is high for all queries?
Check:
1.     If the database statistic strategy is set up properly for your DB platform (above all for the BW specific tables)
2.     If database parameter set up accords with SAP Notes and SAP Services   (EarlyWatch)
3.     If Buffers, I/O, CPU, memory on the database server are exhausted?
4.     If Cube compression is used regularly
5.     If Database partitioning is used (not available on all DB platforms)
6. What can I do if the OLAP proportion is high for all queries?
Check:
1.     If the CPUs on the application server are exhausted
2.     If the SAP R/3 memory set up is done properly (use TX ST02 to find bottlenecks)
3.     If the read mode of the queries is unfavourable (RSRREPDIR, RSDDSTAT, Customizing default)
7. What can I do if the client proportion is high for all queries?
Check whether most of your clients are connected via a WAN connection and the amount of data which is transferred   is rather high.
8. Where can I get specific runtime information for one query?
1.     Again you can use ST03N -> BW System Load
2.     Depending on the time frame you select, you get historical data or current data.
3.     To get to a specific query you need to drill down using the InfoCube name
4.      Use Aggregation Query to get more runtime information about a   single query. Use tab All data to get to the details.   (DB, OLAP, and Frontend time, plus Select/ Transferred records, plus number of cells and formats)
9. What kind of query performance problems can I recognize using ST03N
   values for a specific query?
(Use Details to get the runtime segments)
1.     High Database Runtime
2.     High OLAP Runtime
3.     High Frontend Runtime
10. What can I do if a query has a high database runtime?
1.     Check if an aggregate is suitable (use All data to get values "selected records to transferred records", a high number here would be an indicator for query performance improvement using an aggregate)
2.     o Check if database statistics are update to data for the   Cube/Aggregate, use TX RSRV output (use database check for statistics and indexes)
3.     Check if the read mode of the query is unfavourable - Recommended (H)
11. What can I do if a query has a high OLAP runtime?
1.     Check if a high number of Cells transferred to the OLAP (use "All data" to get value "No. of Cells")
2.     Use RSRT technical Information to check if any extra OLAP-processing is necessary (Stock Query, Exception Aggregation, Calc. before   Aggregation, Virtual Char. Key Figures, Attributes in Calculated   Key Figs, Time-dependent Currency Translation) together with a high number of records transferred.
3.     Check if a user exit Usage is involved in the OLAP runtime?
4.     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.
5.     Check if a proper index on the inclusion table exist
12. What can I do if a query has a high frontend runtime?
1.     Check if a very high number of cells and formatting are transferred   to the Frontend (use "All data" to get value "No. of Cells") which   cause high network and frontend (processing) runtime.
2.     Check if frontend PC are within the recommendation (RAM, CPU MHz)
3.     Check if the bandwidth for WAN connection is sufficient

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.

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
space, no number range buffering,cubes r using too many aggrigates,
large IC,Large ODS, and many others.
So my questionis that is anyone can tell me that how to resolve the
issues with the Large master data tables,and large ODS,and one more
importnat issue is KPI´s exceding there refrence valuses so any idea
how to deal with them.
waiting for the valuable responces.
thanks In advance

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
Thanks

Structures Vs RKFs and CKFs In Query performance

Hi Gurus,
I am creating a GL query which will be returning with a couple of KFs and some calculations as well with different GL accounts and I wanted to know which one is going to be more beneficial for me either to create Restricted keyfigures and Calculated Keyfigures or to just use a structure for all the selections and formula calculations?
Which option will be better for query performance?
Thanks in advance

As compared to formulas that are evaluated during query execution, calculated key figures are pre-calculated and their definitions are stored in the metadata repository for reuse in queries. The incorporation of business metrics and key performance indicators as calculated key figures, such as gross profit and return on investment (which are frequently used, widely understood, and rarely changed), improve query performance and ensure that calculated key figures are reported consistently by different users. Note that this approach improves query runtime performance but slows InfoCube or ODS object update time. As a rule of thumb, if multiple and frequently used queries use the same formula to compute calculated fields, use calculated key figures instead of formulas.
RKFs result in additional database processing and complexity in retrieving the query result and therefore should be avoided when possible.

Query performance - bench marking

Performance of a query at any given time is determined by many variables, and I would like to know how to detect performance issues against a benchmark. One thought was to store some data in a separate cube (and not load any more data into it), run a specific query daily (few times) and have the run time info. updated on BW statistics cube. And when users complain about any performance issues on the system for different queries, we can run this specific query to see if there is really a true performance issue in the system.
The objective is to establish bench marks for tracking query performance. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sree

hi Sree,
that's good idea, but i think only volume data factor may considered here, other factors like query design, aggregate, frontend, network, etc. take a look following for query performance

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

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/2007/04/08/statistical-records-part-4-how-to-read-st03n-datasets-from-db-in-nw2004
/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.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/60/f0fb411e255f24e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
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.
Note 646402 - Programs for checking aggregates (as of BW 3.0B SP15)

                          A.ADDUIDTIME)This query is a short version of the main query.It is same but having 180 columns in original table.

What version of Oracle are you using? This message does not appear in my 10.1 Error Messages document, but the other messages in that range seem to be about DBMS_SCHEDULER.
Are you using scheduler somewhere around where you are getting the error message?

Two-step currency translation in BEx Query

Hello,
is it possible in BI NetWeaver 2004s to specify a two-step currency conversion in a query?
Example scenario:
In the cube the values are stored in EUR. We'd like to convert the values to Local Currency (LC) using exchange rate type A in step 1. Then, in step 2, we'd like to convert from that LC back to EUR using exchange rate type B. It is demanded, to do both mentioned steps "on-the-fly" during query execution. Is this possible?
Might current research efforts led to the conclusion that it is not possible and that ONLY ONE exchange rate type for conversion can be defined for a selection or restricted key figure. Even if you would then use that restricted key figure in another restricted key figure and apply the second exchange rate type to this one, the conversion mechanism does not use the target currency of step 1 as the source currency for step 2 but rather uses the currency stored in the cube as source currency for step 2.
Thanks to any answers in advance!
Best regards,
Philipp

As far as I know, this is not possible.

Steps to Improve Query Performance

Hi All,
I have a request from User to improve the Query performance for few of the sales reports. Please let me know the different steps I need to perform to improve it.
The data is coming from R/3 and the query is on a Multicube modeled upon three Cubes.
It takes way lot of time to open and refresh the report an further execute. The data available is not really huge but still it is taking time.
Tell me what are the areas that i need to check to understand the issue and how should o progress to improve the performance.
It would be great help if you can help me with as much details as possible.
Thanks in advance
Pavan
