What is the best way to kill/stop a data load?

2020 Views

Hi.

What is the best way to kill/stop a data load?

I have a data load from my QA R/3 system that is extracting 115.000.000+ records. The problem is that the selection in the function module used in the data source does not work, and the problem was not detected because of the nature of the data on the development system.

I could kill processes owned by my background user (on both R/3 and BW) but I risk killing other loads, and sometimes the job seems to restart if I just try to kill processes. If I remove transactional RFCs in SM58 the load does not terminate; I only skip one or more datapackages. I have also tried to change the QM-status in the monitor to red, but that does not stop the load either...

So isn't there a nice fool-proof way of stopping a dataload?

Best regards,

Christian Frier
