Copy Express Runtime Error Large File Restrictions

Former Member

Hello,

We are trying to move 44,000 BP's from our testing environment to our Production company DB using Copy Express. SAP BO 2007 A SP00 Patch Level 38.

We have tried sectioning the data using filters and have researched notes and forum.

Copy Express continues to fail with a Runtime Error.

In some instances, when we attempt a large number of record transfers, the program hangs without producing errors or a log.

We have found Note https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1118767

Which speaks of a design restriction within Copy Express which forbids large files copying.

Can anyone tell me what the limitations/rettrictions are?

We need to move this data to go-live.

Regards,

Dana Larkin

Hi Dana,

When copying such amont of BP data, not only Copy Express, all other hardware and software resources need to be checked completely. Instead of waiting to find the exact limitations, my suggestion is try selection from small to large in small step. In this way you can test the limit.

BTW, have you successfully copied any BP data so far?

Thanks,

Hi Gordon,

Thank you for answering on a Saturday.

Yes, I've moved a set of 516 records successfully and am now attempting a larger set. About 2000.

However, trial and error, is not my idea of maximizing my efforts and time.

Are you aware of any restrictions? ie. Eclusive use of DB, etc.

Can I run multiple Copy Express sessions simultaneously?

This is a BIG job and I need to expedite any way possible.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Regards,

Hi,

This thread is not answered and shouldn't be marked as such.

What is the maximum limit for records that can be transfered using copy express?

Just use trial and error isn't an acceptable solution.

Kind Regards

Hi,

Try writing a SQl query which will trasfer the data from one DB to another DB.

You can take hepl of the B1 SDK for the same.
