  • SAP Tcode: SWU_OBUF - Reset Runtime Buffer
    
    Overview:
    The SAP transaction code SWU_OBUF is used to reset the runtime buffer of an SAP system. This code is used to clear the buffer of any data that has been stored in it, allowing the system to run more efficiently. 
    
    Functionality: 
    The SWU_OBUF transaction code is used to reset the runtime buffer of an SAP system. This code is used to clear the buffer of any data that has been stored in it, allowing the system to run more efficiently. The runtime buffer stores data that is used by the system during its operation, such as user settings and preferences. By resetting the runtime buffer, any data that has been stored in it will be cleared, allowing the system to run more efficiently. 
    
    Step-by-step How to Use: 
    1. Log into your SAP system using your user credentials. 
    2. Enter the transaction code SWU_OBUF into the command field. 
    3. Select “Execute” to reset the runtime buffer. 
    4. Confirm that you want to reset the runtime buffer by selecting “Yes” when prompted. 
    5. The runtime buffer will now be reset and any data stored in it will be cleared. 
    
    Other Recommendations: 
    It is recommended that you only use this transaction code when necessary, as it can have a negative impact on system performance if used too often. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all users are logged out of the system before using this code, as any data stored in their user settings will be lost when the runtime buffer is reset.
