Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SAUNIT_LEGACY_CI512 - Maximum execution durations - long: &1, medium: &2, short: &3 (seconds) ?

  The SAP error message SAUNIT_LEGACY_CI512 indicates that a process has exceeded the maximum execution duration defined for long, medium, or short tasks in the system. This typically occurs in the context of background jobs, report execution, or other long-running processes in SAP.
  Cause:
  
  Long Execution Time: The process is taking longer than the allowed time limits set in the system configuration for various execution durations (long, medium, short).
  Inefficient Code: The underlying code or logic of the program may be inefficient, leading to longer execution times.
  System Performance Issues: High system load, insufficient resources (CPU, memory), or database performance issues can contribute to longer execution times.
  Data Volume: Processing a large volume of data can also lead to exceeding the maximum execution duration.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Increase Maximum Execution Durations:
  
  You can adjust the maximum execution durations in the SAP system settings. This is typically done in transaction RZ10 or RZ11 where you can modify the parameters related to execution time limits.
  Look for parameters like rdisp/max_wprun_time (for maximum runtime of work processes) and adjust them according to your needs.
  
  
  
  Optimize the Program:
  
  Review the code of the program or report that is causing the issue. Look for opportunities to optimize the logic, reduce database calls, or improve data handling.
  Use performance analysis tools like the SAP Runtime Analysis (transaction SE30) or SQL Trace (transaction ST05) to identify bottlenecks.
  
  
  
  Monitor System Performance:
  
  Check system performance metrics to ensure that the SAP system has adequate resources. Use transaction ST03N to analyze workload and performance.
  If necessary, consider scaling up your hardware resources or optimizing your database.
  
  
  
  Batch Processing:
  
  If the process is handling a large volume of data, consider breaking it into smaller batches to avoid exceeding execution time limits.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for detailed information on system parameters and performance tuning.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums for insights from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  Transaction Codes:
  
  RZ10 / RZ11: For changing system parameters.
  SE30: For performance analysis.
  ST05: For SQL trace.
  ST03N: For workload analysis.
  
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to address the SAUNIT_LEGACY_CI512 error and improve the performance of the affected processes in your SAP system.
