There is a property called "SynchronousRequest Timeout" that can be configured. This property specifies the time in milliseconds that the connector waits for a response to a synchronous request. This property is valid only if the value of DeliveryTransport is JMS. For WebSphere Message Broker, the transport is JMS. This is a timeout value for the request across the adapter from input to reply.


Note that there is also a timeout threshold outside the control of the adapter between SAP JCO connection to SAP, which could be triggered because of network and SAP load issues.

Note also that in case of a time out, if the response is not received within the specified time, the connector moves the original synchronous request message (and error message) to the fault queue. With the proper log / trace level set, there would be an exception in the logs.
