The legacy SAP Adapter only imported "open" Commitments. Since open Commitments can change from day to day, this was implemented as a purge and replace model. This meant that all Commitments in EcoSys were first deleted and then replaced for every execution which had a negative performance impact. The new incremental implementation provides a significant performance improvement as well as providing a better history of closed Commitments.
If, for some reason, the legacy behavior is desired use the Connect job called "SAP Commitments Import - PR".
