In reporting transactions as e.g. ME2A, ME2M, ME2N,... the performance might not be as good as you expect.

The reason for this is that the selection criteria you use to execute the transaction is too wide and the main key, used while searching in the table, is not filled. Please note that all the reports search the database using a primary key.  All resulting datasets will be read by the system BEFORE further filtering by additional criteria takes place.

You should use the following keys for the different reporting transactions:

  • Performance issues in transaction ME2B:
    As transaction  ME2B is designed to report on purchasing documents per requirement tracking number, the performance of transaction ME2B can be improved by specifying the tracking number plus other selective criteria if possible.

  • Performance issues in transaction ME2C:
    As transaction  ME2C is designed to report on purchasing documents per material group, the performance of transaction ME2C can be improved by
    specifying a material group plus other selective criteria if possible.

  • Performance issues in transaction ME2K:
    As transaction ME2K is designed to report on purchasing documents per account  assignment, the way to improve the performance of transaction ME2L is to specify an account assignment plus other selective criteria if possible.

  • Performance issues in transaction ME2L:
    As transaction  ME2L is designed to report on purchasing documents per vendor,  the way to improve performance of transaction ME2L is to specify a vendor plus other selective criteria if possible.

  • Performance issues in transaction ME2M:
    As transaction  ME2M is designed to report on purchasing documents per  material, the way to improve performance of transaction ME2M is to
    specify material plus other selective criteria if possible.

  • Performance issues in transaction ME2N:
    As transaction ME2N is designed to report on purchasing documents per document  number, the way to improve performance of transaction ME2N is to specify the document number plus other selective criteria if possible.

  • Performance issues in transaction  ME2W:
    As transaction ME2W is designed to report on purchasing  documents per supplying plant, the way to improve performance
    of transaction ME2W is to specify the supplying plant plus other selective  criteria if possible.
