Environment

• SAP Business Planning and Consolidation 10 for NetWeaver (all Service Packs)
• EPM Add-in for Microsoft Office (all Service Packs)

Reproducing the Issue

1. Log on to EPM Add-in,


2. Open a report or input template
3. Click the 'Refresh' or 'Save Data' button

Cause

• Due to refreshing or saving large amounts of data (depending on the volume, capacity of server...), the
ICM processing (PROCTIMEOUT) timeout setting is set too low.
• The ICM processing timeout setting (PROCTIMEOUT) defines the processing timeout for
communicating with the back end (work process) and needs to be kept alive during this period of time
for processing.
• The processing timeout specifies the timeout between sending an HTTP request and receiving an
HTTP response.
