Hi,

The easy way know the size of client, do a local client copy and giv test run and go for resource check ( dont do the actual copy) , that will tell you the size of the client in KB.

Regarding the no of users.. normally on a reough calculation 1 dialog work process can serve upto 5 user.

Sizing SAP Solutions

Business-oriented, proven, cost effective

Sizing means determining the hardware requirements of an SAP System such as network bandwidth, physical memory, CPU power, and I/O capacity. The size of the hardware and database is influenced by both business aspects and technological aspects. This means that the number of users using the various application components and the data load they put on the network must be taken into account.

With the help of SAP Standard Application Benchmark results at www.sap.com/benchmark, statements can be made as to CPU consumption and memory consumption of particular software components.

For sizing we have identified three different and independent sizing models that have different advantages and disadvantages. The first two, user-based sizing and throughput-based sizing, have been implemented in the Quick Sizer.

Thanks for the quick response Barry, unfortunately I dont have access to the SAP service market place

The sizing is done on a client by client basis due to the nature of the business, number of users and modules implemented.
