Hierarchy failure in "Save hiererachies' step in process chain.

Hi,
In process chain I am getting an error stating hierarchy loaded with requestXXXXXXXXXXXXX could not be activated.
step: Save hierarchies.
even though the above step is in failure state, the chain execution gets completed with status red.
temporary solution:
we are manually turning the status to green through program(SE38- rspc_process_finish).
this happening on every time the chain has run.
any suggestions on this for a permanent fix.
thanks
ameer.

Hi,
There is an option in the infopackage used to load hierarchy -- to activate upon loading.
tick that option and remove the hierarchy name from Save hierarchy variant of the process chain.
Ticking this option will activate your hierarchy automatically after loading.No need to explicitely save it.
Hope this helps !!

Yogita.

"Save Hierarchies" step in Process chain getting failed

Hello all,
After searching thoroughly through various links / forums, i failed to get a solution. So, I am posting here.
Recently we had a system copy. After that, in Quality system - "Save all Hierarchies" step in PC is getting failed.
I ran the process chain for 3 times till now:
1) Sometimes, it fails at batch monitor itself with UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION runtime error.
2) Sometimes, it fails saying "Error 0 when reading PSA 1" & "No hierarchy found for the selection criteria entered".
When it fails with "Error 0 when reading PSA 1", then the above Hierarchy info package which is green automatically turns RED again with Process monitor saying "No PSA tables for the selection criteria".
I also went through the below sdn links.
http://scn.sap.com/thread/278794
http://scn.sap.com/thread/1753212
Things I did:
1) Tried replicating & activating the Transfer rules and Data source.
2) Repeated the step, as suggested in one post.
3) Refreshed the OLTP hierarchies in Infopack. selections.
I have attached a screenshot of a sample Data source which says Modified, though the transfer rules are active. Also, the process chain sample.
Please let me know, if someone has faced this issue. Whatelse did I miss? Any clue.
Thanks,
Vikranth.

Hi Raman,
I couldn't retransport, but i removed it from schedule and re-activated it. But, i think the issue lies with one of the Info objects 0PROFIT_CTR.
Because, when i tried to check the hierarchy structure; there are duplicate entries for one code. Can we delete one of them? Is it preferable.
I tried using OSS and used a program RSR_REPAIR_INFOAREAHIER but this showed no errors.
Any clue?
Thanks,
VIkranth

Save Hierarchy step in process chain

Hi All,
I have a process chain which include the following steps.
Z* program([for loading multiple hierarchies |http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/e0d5c74a-8a39-2d10-2d8b-9e1971cb053a]) --> Save hierarchy --> Change run
In the above scenario, I cannot include a step for the hierarchy save/activate because the hierarchy is not being loaded in this chain through an infopackage.
And I learned from the [site|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/3d/320e3d89195c59e10000000a114084/content.htm], that 'Save hierarchy' has to be included after loading the hierarchial data.
So, is there any procedure for including any step in process chain for activating the hierarchial master data..?
If I want write a Z* program for activating hierarchial data, which programs/ function modules are used to activate hierarchial master data..?
Thanks in advance.

Process chain failure at save hiearchy step

Hi Experts,
I am facing one issue with the process chain, it has failed at Saved Hiearchy step, i have tried repeating the step twice but still it didnt work out, since i am new to BW please suggest me pointers regarding the solution as i am unable to solve to myself.
Any Help/Guidance Regarding this will be Appreciated.
Thanks.
SB

hi,
kindly check whether you hiearchy is in M or A state in RSH1, generally it happens when the hiearchy when it is modifed(M) state then tit fails at save hierachy step...
kindly activate it their and then try either repeating the step/retrigger the chain

Failure of infopackage step in process chain - Error in source system.

Hello Experts,
We are experiencing this during the execution of process chain.
All the step for data loads within BW(DSO to DSO, DSO to cube) are failing with error -
- Error in source system
- Error during data selection
Please note that we are 3.5 data flow and thus, data load within BW is through emulated data source and the infopackage. Steps running such infopackages for emulated data source are failing in process chain with error above.
Surprisingly, when I run the infopackage manually out of process chain it runs successful without any error. But when I run through process chain it fails.
Any clue or suggestion? We have already tried doing re-initialization for infopackage.
Appreciate your inputs.
Regards,
PK.

Hi,
When we run data loads thru process chain it will run in background. as per the available background application servers your request will be processed.
as my your during your load time server will be on high load.
please check your system busy schedule and schedule your process chains.
Check Tx - SM50, if you have less application servers, then ask basis to create few more to application servers to process the request at busiest time.
check about increasing parallel processing and default data transfer settings.
go to info package---> menu scheduler--> data settings for default data transfer.
Thanks

Error on step in process chain

Hello All,
I have just scheduled a process chain immediately and it is running. One step (A full update) has gone red with error "Object requested is currently locked by user DCKIBUUK" - DCKIBUUK is my username. 11 out of 26 Data Packages have processesed OK. Data Package number 12 is where the error occured. Please advise on what to do.
Thank you and kind regards,
Keith

The first thing is to unlock the node of the process chain which has been locked by you. So you need to come out of the infopackage in question.
Now, right-click on the node that failed and use the "Repeat" option. If the repeat does not exist , you have 2 options :
1. manually run the remaining steps
2. Manually make the system believe that the failed node went in successfully by forcing the status of the step to "G".
Hope this helps .

Hierarchy Activation dumps when itu0092s executed from Process Chain. u0096 BI 7.0

Issue:
CostElement Hierarchy sign reversal is updated manually using ABAP Program to update sign reversal, which updates H and J tables and activates the Hierarchy using func module RSHIER_HIER_CHECK_AND_ACTIVATE. It works fine when ABAP is executed manually as well as when Process Chain is executed in BW 3.5.
However, the same Process Chain in BI 7.0 it abends during Hierarchy Activation.

Vijay,
Due to the age of this post I am assuming did you find a fix to the problem?
I actually would like more information about your abap program as we are trying to create a similar program.

Error in First step of Process Chain

Hi everybody,
i have created a process chain with a start process (direct scheduling) to InfoPackage to load into InfoCube-so delete indexes and generate indexes were automatically inserted becoz of default chain option.
i have checked the chain-- the message was chain is ok but when i activated the chain it gave a error message job-delete index cannot be scheduled return code-8. In addition to this, i checked the status of indexes and DB statastics at cube level and it's showing green light. Further to that, when i checked sytem log, it is displaying
"> illegal values in step one....the Job_submit was not defined
properly..???"
Any inputs to this topic highly appriciated.
Thanks and Regards,
~Sapins

Make sure you have the following steps in order in your process chain.
1.Start Process Variant.
2.Delete Indexes step.
3.Load data.
4.Create Indexes.
5.Roll up (if required)
6.Compression(if required)
7.Completion job.
8.PSA deletion(if required)
I process chain should allways start with a start Process variant step.
Thanks,
Uma Srinivasa Rao

No repeat option available for the process step in process chain

If the process chain failed at the ODS activation level, generally the repeat option will be available for activation and to continue the next step. But in some cases the repeat option will not be available for the process step.
Is there any process to get the repeat option in the process chain?

You can change this in RSPC > Settings > Maintain process types > Loading (or process of your interest) > put the check mark for Repeatable.

Failing at ACR step in process chain?

Hi,
Could any body explain on this topic?
In process chain job mostly the chain was failing at ACR(attribute change run) step. that it is materdata ACR step.i want permanent solution for this step? I want find why this ACR step is failing weekly twice not regularly.
So,plz any body help on this..
Thanks&regards,
Goodyear.

What is happening here is that while the ACR process is trying to run in one chain(the main MD chain) most probably another chain is already getting kicked off before the MD chain and its ACR process is RUNNING while the main MD chain's ACR process is trying to kick off.
-Try to have sufficient spacing between the process chain batch scheduling runs so that 2 ACR processes NEVER clash.
-An ACR process while running,locks the MD tables and so no MD loads on those said infoobjects should kick off while the ACR process is running.
-goto Tools->Attr/Change run.It does contain a short log of the past ACR runs.Maybe u can get details about..at which day/time ACR process taking long time.
-Recommend that u have single ACR process at the end of the MD load chain.U can even have a meta chain having all MD chains as local chains and then put an AND collector from the local chains and map it to a ACR process.Right click on the ACR process and then insert the list of all MD infoobjects that are being loaded in all the local chains.
cheers,
Vishvesh

Decision Step in Process chain

Hello All,
I have a meta chain which run at 00:30 midnight everyday.
It consist of 4 sub process chain.
The last process chain consist of decision step in it.
This last process chain should run only at first friday of every month.
For this reason this decision step is included in it.
It consist of the following formula.
"( ( Local Time > '17:00:00' ) AND ( DATE_WEEKDAY1( Local date + 1 ) = '6' ) AND ( RIGHT( 2, ( Local date + 1 ) ) <= '07' ) ) OR ( ( Local Time <= '17:00:00' ) AND ( DATE_WEEKDAY1( Local date ) = '6' ) AND ( RIGHT( 2, ( Local date ) ) <= '07' ) )"
Till now the process chain had never executed at 1st friday of every month.
The third sub process chain finishes at 3:30 everyday. So due to that the local time of starting the 4th process will be 3:32 and then this decison checks.
The first condition fails as the local time is <17:00:00 and not > 17:00:00.
Hence it will move to the other OR condition.
But friday is weekday '05' and not as '06' hence again the second condition is failing. Hence the process chain is not executed at first friday.
After doing this small change also what further more changes should be done in the formula which will help me to execute that chain only at first friday of every month and for rest day it should not execute.
Points will be assigned for helpful answere.

The decision step is fine and making changes in the formulae would be ideal but another alternative is through restrictions in the start step for the 4th process chain w.r.t the calenday you will choose. You can restrict it to a particular day for the month with marking only 1st Friday for every month as workday

How can I define a function in "decide" step in process chain?

Hi guys,
I have a process chain und want to use the "decide" step in this process chain. It seems possible that a funktion can be created ( "Customer defined" ) in this step. But how can I create it and how can I check the available code?
Thanks for any hint!

It's a helpfel document!
But I steel have a question:
I want to use a self-defeind function. And I also see it is possible to use such function here.
But I am not sure how I can define this function, via BADI?
And how can I use this function here. (Maybe if I can define it, then it shows automatically...)

Failind AND step of process chain

Hi all
I am facing problem with AND step in one process chain.
AND step is failing as soon as chain is triggered.
All the proceses before AND are executing properly with GREEN Status.
"This AND process is not waiting for event RSPROCESS, parameter 4BYB726KFX6RHP8SWWPP1CIR9" is the message displayed... parameter mentioned is a DTP.
Please Help
Thanks

Did you transport the process chain again?
Go to edit mode of the process chain, right click on AND, maintain and press Ok ! try to activate the process chain again and see if that shows any error.

Skip steps in process chain if 0 records received from InfoPackage

Hi Experts,
In one business scenario, we need to change existing process chain such that if InfoPackage/DTP has brought 0 records process chain should skip rest steps or it should get failed.
Do you have any ideas about this.
Regards,

Dear Ganesh,
you can change the traffic light color for empty request in the infoPackage maintenance window. Top menu --> Scheduler --> Traffic light color for empty request.
Using this option and connecting process chain nodes correctly, process chain execution will stop whenever the infoPackage gets 0 records.
For a DTP, you can use ABAP code in the start routine of the corresponding transformation. You should check the contents of SOURCE_PACKAGE internal table and raise exception accordingly.
I hope this information helps you.
Best regards,
Nacho
