Runtime Analysis

This runtime analysis tools allows the
ABAP/4 programmer to trace the tables used

by the SAP dialog/reports programs. In the
Analyze button, you can see four more
buttons like:-
Hit List
 Displays the execution time of each statement in the program.
Tables
 Displays the tables accessed during run time.
Group hit list
 Displays the execution time of all the statements and grouping them based on the
type of command. e.g. performs, SQL and internal tables used.
Hirarchy
 Displays the execution time of each statement in the actual order in which were
executed. Uses indentation to indicate the level of nesting of statements within
subroutines.
Any tables use by the transaction or program can be easily trace with the runtime
analysis tools.
Go to transaction SE30
Type in the transaction code you want to analyze
4.6x
 In the Restriction section: select the TMP -> Temporary variant

 Click the Change button
 Click the Duratn/type
 Select None for Aggregation
 Save the variant and execute again
 After finishing the process, click back to SE30

 Use F3 to move back to the initial screen of SE30
 Click the Analyze Button
 Click Goto -> Object-centered hit list -> Database tables
3.0x
 Click Execute
 After finishing the process, click back to SE30
 Click the Analyze Button
 Click the Table Button
After retrieving the table names, you can check the raw data with transaction SE16 -
Data Browser or SE11 - Dictionary.
For example, if you want to display the data for MSEG - Material Document table
 Transaction SE16
 Type in MSEG for Table name and click execute.
 Data Browser will display the default selection for you to display data. If you
did not change the default and click execute the data browser will display the
first 500 records.
 Click Settings to change the List formats, User parameters and Fields for
selection.
 In 4.6x, you can use SE16N.
 Transaction SE11 or SE12 (4.6x)
 Type in MSEG for Object name and click the Display button.
 Click Utilities -> Table contents for the default selection screen. If you did not
change the default and click execute, the Dictionary will display the first 500

Runtime Analysis
The following documentation describes the runtime analysis application in the ABAP Workbench.
The runtime analysis provides an overview of the duration of your source code, from individual
statements up to complete transactions.
Choose Menu Test Runtime Analysis or transaction SE30 to start the runtime analysis. On
the initial screen, you will find the four main functions of this tool. They can be activated using the
appropriate pushbutton:
 Measurement in dialog status
 Measurement of external session
 Planning a measurement
 Selection of measurement restrictions
 Analyzing measurement results
For large applications it is recommended that you first analyze the entire application and hit list.
With the following information you can carry out the analysis, display and interpret the results,
and use this as a basis for optimizing your programs.
Using the Runtime Analysis tool you can also analyze ICF services. In particular,
you can measure Web Dynpro ABAP and BSP applications.
