XI Adapter Data Volume Report

FlexNet Manager Suite 2020 R2 (On-Premises)
To be able to use this feature, the XI system must be integrated into the system landscape.

The XI Adapter Data Volume report is relevant for system landscapes that use an SAP XI (SAP Exchange Infrastructure) component.

The SAP XI software facilitates the exchange of information between SAP and non-SAP systems. For more information about SAP XI, refer to the SAP documentation.

License fees for an SAP XI system are charged based on the data volume that passes through it. The XI Adapter Data Volume report enables you to monitor the data volume at regular intervals. When viewed in combination with the relevant SAP license contract, the volume figure enables you to keep track of the amount of licensing charges that is to be expected when an SAP system measurement is run.

In addition to providing the overall amount of data volume that passed through the XI system in a specified time period, the XI Adapter Data Volume report also provides detailed information about when data was sent or received, and who sent or received the data.
