Summary :
Wait times in SAP systems, particularly when processing sales documents and customer orders, are often due to concurrent user access leading to database locks. This symptom arises because the number range object remains locked between number assignment and the subsequent COMMIT operation in the database, causing bottlenecks. To alleviate this issue, buffering of number range objects (e.g., object KONV and RV_BELEG) is recommended, which can buffer up to 10 numbers and eliminate the need for locking during assignment. However, users must be aware that this can introduce number gaps, particularly problematic in billing documents. Alternatively, splitting number ranges across different order types can mitigate these locks. Users should manage these settings via transaction SNRO and consult Note 23835 for more insights on buffering strategies.
