Environment
• SAP Business Planning and Consolidation 10 for NetWeaver (all Service Packs)
• EPM Add-in for Microsoft Office (all Service Packs)
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.
• Refer to SAP Note 824554 related to ICM and SAP Web Dispatcher Timeout Parameter and Timeout
Options for ICM and Web Dispatcher
Resolution
Note please review your ICM settings to confirm they are configured correctly as specified in the SAP help
file: Configuration of the Web Dispatcher Server Port
