• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SEPM_DG079 - ***Total generation time: &1 sec. ?

  The SAP error message SEPM_DG079, which indicates "Total generation time: &1 sec," is typically related to the generation of a data model or a similar process in SAP. This message is not necessarily an error but rather an informational message that indicates how long a particular generation process took to complete.
  Cause:
  
  Performance Issues: If the generation time is excessively long, it may indicate performance issues in the system, such as insufficient resources (CPU, memory, etc.) or inefficient data models.
  Complex Data Models: The complexity of the data model being generated can also lead to longer generation times.
  Database Performance: Slow database performance can contribute to longer generation times, especially if the data model involves complex queries or large datasets.
  System Load: High system load or concurrent processes running at the same time can affect the generation time.
  
  Solution:
  
  Optimize Data Models: Review and optimize the data models to ensure they are efficient. This may involve simplifying complex calculations or reducing the number of data sources.
  Monitor System Performance: Use SAP monitoring tools to check system performance metrics. Look for bottlenecks in CPU, memory, or disk I/O.
  Database Optimization: Ensure that the database is optimized. This may include indexing, partitioning, or analyzing query performance.
  Schedule Off-Peak: If possible, schedule data generation processes during off-peak hours to reduce the impact of system load.
  Increase Resources: If the system consistently shows performance issues, consider increasing the resources allocated to the SAP system (e.g., adding more memory or CPU power).
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to performance in the specific version of SAP you are using.
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like ST03N (Workload Analysis) or ST04 (Database Performance Analysis) to analyze performance issues.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums for insights from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  
  If the message is not causing any functional issues and is simply an informational log, it may not require immediate action. However, if you notice that the generation time is impacting system performance or user experience, it would be prudent to investigate further.
