Average segment size of iDoc?

[Former Member]

We want to integrate 2 systems by using iDoc across WAN. So far we know the iDoc volumes and average iDoc segments, for example 6000 SO iDoc/hour and 250 segments of each iDoc. My understanding is that we need to know the average iDoc segment size to performance network sizing.

I know the size varies from case to case. But is there a BEST PRACTICE value we can use?

TIA

I happen to find something interesting at http://msg-ibexi.wikispaces.com/message/view/home/10780864, "Maximun size of IDOC segment is 1000 bytes", is it true?

Hi Jinquin,

>>I happen to find something interesting at http://msg-ibexi.wikispaces.com/message/view/home/10780864, "Maximun size of IDOC segment is 1000 bytes", is it true?

Yes

SDATA contains segment data and it is 1000 character long check here
