What is the advisable system requirement for SAP B1, currently we are having problem extracting the whole G/L per year. The workstation will encounter insufficient memory then crashes once we export the result to excel.

HI,
Introduction
SAP Business One Best Practice System Setup and Sizing
Recommendations
The following section giv es best-practice recommendations for the setup of servers, clients, and networks.
The estimates are given for a standard SAP Business One system using all modules, but no add-ons in a
non-hosted environment.
Server
The following server setup is recommended as a starting point for SAP Business One.
Component Best-Practice Recommendation
Processor x 1-10 Users: 1 x Intel Pentium D/Xeon, 2 GHz/ 1 MB
x 11-20 Users: 1 to 2 x Intel Pentium D/Xeon, 2 - 3 GHz/ 2 MB
x 21-30 Users: 2 to 4 x Intel Xeon, 3 GHz/ 2 MB
Hard disk x 1-10 Users: 2 GB for application and 10 GB f or database
x 11-20 Users: 2 GB for application and 20 GB for database
x 21-30 Users: 2 GB for application and 30 GB for database
Memory x 1-10 Users: 1-2 GB
x 11-20 Users: 2-3 GB
x 21-30 Users: 3-4 GB
Drive CD/DVD ROM
Display 1024 x 768 with 24Bit color
RAID Support RAID-1 (Mirrored). This will require that there be an additional hard
disk of equal size to the main disk for full system backup.
Table 5: Rec ommendations for server setup
Client
The following client setup is recommended as a starting point for SAP Business One.
Processor Intel Pentium 4, 2 GHz (or equivalent)
Hard disk 1 GB of free hard disk space
Memory 1 GB
Driv e 24x CD ROM
Case Studies
The following section describes real-live examples of system configurations as suggested by SAP partners.
The cases include “average” systems with 10 to 20 users, which addresses a large majority of currently
installed SAP Business One systems.
Please note that the c ase studies below are examples prov ided by two hardware providers. There are other
hardware prov iders offering systems f or SAP Business One. Please review the
SAP PartnerEdge P2P

Hewlett-Packard
This section includes recommendations from Hewlett-Packard (HP) f or two types of SAP Business One
systems. First, there are “small” systems with 10 to 20 users. Then, there are “large systems” with over 20
users.

IBM
In the f ollowing section, two cases with recommendations by IBM are described. First, we list the SAP
Business One system setup suggested by IBM for a system with 1 to 15 users and DDS tape driv e data
security. Then, we provided IBM’s recommendations f or a larger system with ov er 15 users. Additional
information on IBM systems can be found at
http://www.developer.ibm.com/servers/sizing/portal/results.jsp
1 to 15 Users – “Immediate” and “Growth” solution with DDS tape drive

landscape for an SAP Business One implementation.

- Make sure that SQL server uses more than 2 GB.
- In SQL 2000, you need apply a hot fix so that it can use more than 4 GB.
x SQL 2005 Standard Edition uses the memory supported by MS Windows. The AWE function is a
chec k box, instead of a query like in SQL 2000.
(c) Disk arrays
x
It is important that the MDF files of the database are in a RAID 5 or RAID 10 with SCSI or SATA disc
at 15,000 RPM.
x For the ldf files, RAID 1 or a separate disc than for the mdf file is recommended!
x Temporary database should be in another RAID 1 or on a separate disc.
x Increase the percent size of temporary database to increase the response time in large reports and
processes.
(d) When performance issues are related to a specific process and the above recommendations do not
result in desired improvements, SQL Profiler should be run and queries of the specific process should be
analyzed. Then run a query optimizer or tuning in MSSQL 2005, e.g. to fix bad index tables.
Hi Robin,
i think u might have solution regarding the System requirement planing.So close the tread with right answer.
