Hi Adilix,

Have you already utilized parallel processing variants and distributed the load across multiple jobs/threads instead of just using 1 single job?

HI Michael

Hmm, no that should be the fastest. It sounds like the length of time if taking for the job to run isn't because of anything on the actual EA38 billing job setup. You might want to review the job logs within EA38 to see if any specific interval is taking longer than the others or encountering any errors.

Hi,

as you're already using parallel jobs a simple way could be to increase the number of parallel jobs but for that you need to have available processes in your system.

Another more technical thing is to create partitions on the bigger tables on you system like the DEC* to avoid having all parallel processing accessing the same one at the same time.

You should maybe also perform a trace in transaction ST05 or ST12 to see if you don't have selections or taking wrong keys or indexes, the creation of a good index in a table can solve a lot of performance problems.

Cheers,
