Hi Gurus,

We are building SRM 7 with ECS.

Product categories are replicated froom ECC 6 EHP4.

When we are searching product categories in SC with match code it leads to a time out with the following error message :

Error application is coming up.

https://XXX/sap/bc/webdynpro/sapsrm/wda_l_fpm_oif/
TIME_OUT

Method: INVOKE_EVENTHANDLER of program CL_WDR_DELEGATING_VIEW========CP
Method: IF_WDR_ACTION~FIRE of program CL_WDR_ACTION=================CP

And a short dump appears in st22.

The only work around I found so far was to restrict number of allowed product categories in org structure.

What is weird is that this problem does not occur with PO. With PO Product categories search is fine and smooth... o_0

I asked Basis to investigate this performance problem but so far they found nothing. Is there any customizing related to this?

Many thanks in advance.

Hello,

Check longtext instructions of note 818837.

In case of Oracle database, it recommends to activate following:

Badi: BBP_FAV_DBHINT.

Also you could work with following Badis to improve F4-help performance:

BBP_F4_READ_ON_ENTRY

BBP_F4_READ_ON_EXIT

Note 818837 refers to consulting note 613121.

Note 613121 recommends Badi usage if more than 1000 category entries must be read from users attributes (Oracle) and activate

Badi: BBP_FAV_DBHINT

Method: IF_EX_BBP_FAV_DBHINT~DETERMINE_HINT_USAGE

EV_X_USE_HINT = 'X'.

This is also available/valid for higher SRM Releases.

Kind regards,

Ricardo

Is backend system is available now ?

you may get an error if the below system is down.

is it geting this error only for free text or material too?

any refresh happened recently? or any transport request done on material group config?

double check define backend product category settings?

Note 1335725 - Search parameter ignored in Product Category search help

HOW do you search the product category?

type EXACT product category name

for example PENCILS - search it AS category id as PENCILS RATHER than description.

then you may fele the difference.
