CPA: Catch ABAP Performance Issues Early addresses a problem most SAP landscapes know too well: Undetected ABAP anti-patterns become multi-hour jobs and emergency transports.

CPA (Code Performance Analysis) scans ABAP via Source Scanner, ranks findings by severity, supports ignore lists, scheduled scans, and Excel export for remediation owners.

Performance bottlenecks, unsafe patterns, and quality issues surface before they become production incidents — linked from scan detail to analysis screens.

Capabilities you use in iDataEngine

  • CPA ↔ Scanner integration
  • Continuous scan scheduling
  • Source Scanner inventory
  • Deep-link to source line
  • Active scan and summary dashboards
  • Finding severity and ignore-list

Recommended workflow

  1. Run Test (iDataView Test, SQL First Row, API Test Service, or AG scan) before scheduling or publishing.
  2. Enable monitoring alerts and review dashboard KPIs for the first production cycle.
  3. Open the relevant cockpit (iDataView Explorer, SQL Project, API Service Detail, or AccessGuard).
  4. Save and capture the generated URL, job ID, or snapshot reference in your change record.

Real-world scenario (2025)

Source Scanner inventories new Enhancement spots; CPA ranks severity so the team fixes top ten before go-live.

Why it matters

Developer time spent firefighting legacy programs is reclaimed when findings are ranked and exportable.

Your next step is a controlled pilot: Test in cockpit, save with evidence, then extend to the next channel without redesign.
