WHAT SHOULD BE DONE WHEN A REPORT RUNNING TIME WILL TAKE LONG TIME IN CONGNOS?..

Answer / joydeep

go through the generated sql and try to compare it with the
regular sql code by running the sql in the navigator. that
will give you an estimate of the time difference.

secondly try to check the joins. avoid outer joins as far
as possible.

thirdly try to add prompts and filters if possible to
reduce the number of records to be pulled into the query.
