• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CA_TTE202 - Output Document Preparation Time: &1 ms ?

  The SAP error message CA_TTE202, which states "Output Document Preparation Time: &1 ms," typically indicates a performance issue related to the time taken to prepare an output document in the SAP system. This message is not necessarily an error but rather a performance metric that can help identify potential bottlenecks in the output processing.
  Cause:
  
  
  Performance Bottlenecks: The time taken to prepare the output document may be longer than expected due to various factors, such as:
  
  High volume of data being processed.
  Inefficient coding in the output program or form.
  Database performance issues.
  Network latency or issues with the print server.
  Resource contention on the application server.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect or suboptimal configuration settings for output processing can lead to delays.
  
  
  System Load: High system load or contention for resources can impact the performance of output document preparation.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Analyze Performance: Use transaction codes like ST03N (Workload Analysis) or ST22 (Dump Analysis) to analyze system performance and identify any bottlenecks.
  
  
  Optimize Output Programs: Review the code of the output program or form (e.g., Smart Forms, SAPscript) for inefficiencies. Optimize the logic to reduce processing time.
  
  
  Database Optimization: Ensure that the database is properly indexed and optimized. Check for long-running database queries that may be affecting performance.
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings for output processing in the relevant transaction (e.g., NACE for output types) to ensure they are set up correctly.
  
  
  Monitor System Load: Use transaction SM66 (Global Work Process Overview) to monitor system load and identify any processes that may be consuming excessive resources.
  
  
  Increase Resources: If the system is consistently under heavy load, consider increasing the resources available to the SAP system, such as CPU, memory, or disk I/O.
  
  
  Network and Print Server: If the output is being sent to a print server, check the network connection and the performance of the print server.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address performance issues related to output processing.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums for insights and shared experiences from other users facing similar issues.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation related to output management and performance tuning for additional best practices.
  
  By following these steps, you can identify the root cause of the performance issue and implement appropriate solutions to improve the output document preparation time in your SAP system.
