Response time distribution

Distribution of workload by transaction steps, transactions, packages, sub applications, and
applications

Transactions with the largest response times and database time

Memory usage for each transaction or each user per dialog step

Workload caused by RFC, broken down by transactions, function modules, and destinations

Number and volume of spool requests

Statistics about response time distribution, with or without the GUI time

It is also a good tool to find out the Workload and transactions used by users, broken down
by users for a specific period of time.
