I am using the DataStage Extract Pack for SAP R/3. Are there any best practices or specific settings to improve the BAPI performance?

my experience is:

i used to have a job, with a sequential file as a source and pushing record into SAP server through a PACK for SAP R/3 BAPI Stage. Couples of hundred ofrecord takes about half an hour or may be more.

later after that, i've changed the job into such a way that, when the sequential file is ready, i'll FTP the file over to the SAP Server, and then trigger the BAPI stage only onces, provide it the filename and path to pick up the file. The rest of the process will be in SAP side.

this is provided if ur BAPI is capable of dealing with 2 different calling method from datastage.

Regards.
