• Key Concepts: 
  Processing mode is a feature of the ICM Incentive and Commission Management (ICM) component of SAP. It is used to define how the system processes data and transactions. Processing mode can be set to either “synchronous” or “asynchronous”. In synchronous mode, the system processes data and transactions in real-time, while in asynchronous mode, the system processes data and transactions in batches. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The processing mode can be set in the ICM configuration settings. Depending on the type of data and transactions being processed, it may be necessary to switch between synchronous and asynchronous modes. For example, if you are processing large amounts of data or transactions, it may be more efficient to use asynchronous mode. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting the processing mode, it is important to consider the type of data and transactions being processed. If you are processing large amounts of data or transactions, asynchronous mode may be more efficient. However, if you are processing small amounts of data or transactions, synchronous mode may be more suitable.
