Hello,
OK - thanks for your help here. Last night, before the night process was run, this time we made sure that we had the V12 ODBC driver on the workstation. The process for the updates took just as long:
03/04/2015 01:17:31 - Rebuilding Forecast ...
03/04/2015 02:08:17 - Processing User Selected After Dayend Reports ...
So, that procedure took almost an hour. Again, if we run this process directly on the server, it takes about 1 minute. That's the part we just don't get!! The process is updating records, not queries or select statements. It's taking a record set from one file and issuing UPDATE statements against another table.
Would you suggest maybe the ODBC Trace Log that I can use on the workstation level? Would that help?
Tonight, the client is going to run this process (since it only runs once a day) on another workstation to see if there is any change i behavior to rule out the workstation itself.
Also, if I setup a GotoAssist session on this workstation, could someone from SAP log in and watch it and see what is going on or is SAP not allowed to do that?
Thank you.
