How to go further in Process chain

Hi Gurus,
while running process chain some error occured and i solved that by modifying the record from PSA..
Then Instead of Going for repeat for next process mistakenly I double clicked on that and run the infopackage, it runs successfully but it showing still running condition in process chian...Can any one tell me how to go further...
Its very urgent
thanks In advance
Siddhu

Hi sidharta,
do you have the option to repeat a step in your chain?
If not then you must finish the chain manually. you can try to end that process by right mouse-click. Maybe then you can repeat the next step. If it was a delta upload be sure that it is green in the monitor otherwise you get some problems at the next load.
hope it helps

How can u know the process chain total time, individual time?

Hi guru's
How can u know the process chain total time, individual time?
and what options will available in sm37?
Thanks
prabha reddy

Hi Prabha
Iam not very sure about total time and individual times.
But you can go to tcode rspcm for monitoring the daily process chains. it gives you details like 1. status 2.start date & time 3. Log ID of each process chain.
or you can go to log view of particular individual chain to know how long it has run.
SM37: tcode for simple job selection.
here you check the status of job.
you can select for certain conditions like
1. scheduled
2. released
3. ready
4.active
5. cancelled

Explain: how to include Infospoke in Process Chain where destination is DB

Explain: how to include Infospoke in Process Chain where destination is local machine database [NOT Flatfile]

Hi vijay,
First you create an Infospoke with destination as a DB table in your local BI or BW Machine. Now add this infospoke by going through below steps.
1. Call up the process chain maintenance. Choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Process Chain Maintenance from the Administrator Workbench toolbar. The Process Chain Maintenance Planning View screen appears.
2. In the left-hand screen area of the required This graphic is explained in the accompanying text display component, navigate to the process chain in which you want to insert your InfoSpoke. Double-click to select it. The system displays the process chain plan view in the right-hand side of the screen.
If no suitable process chain is available, you need to create a new process chain. You can find additional information under Creating a Process Chain.
3. To insert a process for extraction by means of an InfoSpoke, choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Process Types in the left-hand area of the screen. The system now displays the process categories available.
4.In the process category Loading Process and Post Processing, choose the application process type This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Data Export into External Systems.
5.Insert the Data Export into External Systems application type with Drag&Drop into the process chain. The dialog box for inserting a process variant appears.
6.In the Process Variant field, enter the name of the InfoSpoke that you want to include in the process chain, or select it by means of the input help.
Once You have added the infospoke you have to write a program which will fetch the database table that you filled and transfer the data fetched to other legacy system with the help of XI System
For more information on how to infospoke on 3rd party pls find the link below

How to check the parent process chain of a meta chain

Hello Friends,
Recently I joined a new project, which is of environment BW 3.0. I am trying to find the dependent process chain's parent, but could'nt able to find them. I went through all the process chains manually to check whther the dependent process chain is mentioned in them, but could'nt find any......
Can any of you help me to know how to find the parent process chain of a meta chain ?
I really appreciate your time, will be awarding points to any answers.......
Thanks,

Hello Radhan,
thanks for your quick reply. I searched the table based on your advice, but i could'nt get the parent process chain's name. Can you throw some more ideas please..........
Thanks,

How can we set a process chain to trigger the nodes w/o manual intervention

SDNers,
We have a Master PC which has the loading & activation of some Hierarchies.Wats happening is some of the hier activations are failing (we got track of the root cause as well) and the nodes below are not getting triggered automatically, eventhough they have been designed to get triggered irrespective of success or failure of this hierarchy activation. The chain prompts for the u2018Status change & trigger the following eventsu2019 opo-up and only when it was said u2018yesu2019, the subsequent node gets triggered in the chain. If this manual intervention was not there, the Chain gets struck at the activation node, whic is running in yellow status for long, though a short dump - error has already been thrown.
My query is how can we set a process chain not to anticipate the manual intervention of chnaging the status & trigger events pop-up

Hi ravi,
i'm not sure abt the query but what i got thru ur qustion is u have to automtaically go to the next load/step even the proceess chain fails in the step......
for that we have the same master meta chains with link of so many local chains...for this even if there are some interventions/fails in between the process chains it never gets stopped....
it goes to the next step and we'll work, analyse and finish the failed load manually....the next day it'll be
fine...
b4 to this make sure that there is no dependency for the previous loads....
And now the solution i found for this is in the process chain design itself.......
while giving the links itself we'll be getting the options as status RED,GREEN and RED(or)GREEN.....now if u got for the third option the event goes to the next step even it is unsuceesful....
rgds,

How can we delete a process chain?

By Mistake I have converted an infopackage group into process chain in Quality system. How can we delete a process chain?
Thanks,

Hi Bhanu,
I've doubt that what is the difference between cancel with core and cancel without core with respect to process chain.
Could you please advice how do we start a process chain daily without using the schedular window for transaction data.
Thanks in advance...

How to create event based process chains

Hi All,
I would like to know about event based process chains. In connection to this, could you please answer the following queries,
1. How to create events
2. How to link created event to the process chain in the same BI or BW system and as well as from
    externel BI system.
3. How link one process chain with other process chain (i.e, After completion of one process chain, it
    should trigger other dependent process chain)
Thanks and Regards,
Kotesh.

1). Doubt regarding first question.
For example, i would like to create time based event (it should be trigger daily at specified time),
where we have to maintain scheduling options while creating event.
When i checked SM62 there i found only two options a). Event name and b). Description.
Could please send any doucument link if you have.
Ans : You can use function modules like "BP_EVENT_RAISE" in a program and schedule the program to trigger.
2). For externel BIW system also same procedure we need to follow or any difference.
Ans : Externally you need to trigger the same event.
3). i found dependent process chain also had scheduling options as direct scheduling insted of start using meta chain or API. As you said dependent process chain should be mata chain. it seems dependent process chain may be Meta chain or Direct scheduilg.
Ans : Its your choice how you want to schedule it.You can either make that dependent chain a metachain or schedule it separately.
I found at the end of first process chain they kept one process like Raise event and second process chain connected with the help of raise event process event name. If you have any idea about this process could explain a bit more.
Ans : May be they are raising the event in the main chain and triggering the dependent chain using this event.
But Metachain is preferred for such thing.Though it does similar thing.
Hope this helps.

How to design data load process chain?

Hello,
I am designing data load process chains for the first time and would like to get some general information on best practicies in that area.
My situation is as follows:
I have 3 source systems (R3 and two for which I use flat files).
How do you suggest, should I define one big chain for all my loading process (I have about 20 InfoSources) or define a few shorter e.g.
1. Master data R3
2. Master data flat file system 1
3. Master data flat file system 2
4. Transaction data R3
5. Transaction data file sys 1
... and execute one after another succesful end?
Could you also suggest me any links or manuals on that topic?
Thank you
Andrzej

Andrzej,
My advise is to make separate chains for master & transaction data (always load in this order!) and afterwards make a 'master chain' where you insert these 2 chains one after the other (so: Start process -> Master data chain -> Transaction data chain).
Regarding the separate chains; paralellize as much as possible (if functionally allowed). Normally, the number of parallel ('vertical') chains equals the nr of CPU's available (check with basis-person).
Hope this provides you with enough info to start off with!
Regards,
Marco

How to handle hierarchies in process chain

Hi All,
I am designing the process chain for a master GL account number . It has attribute hierarchy and text.
I am successfully able to create the process chain for the attribute and text . But when i add the infopackage for the hierachy I am confused as I have two hierachy infopackages as the client is using two hierachies for the GL accounts.
How should i incorporate these two infopackages which are refereing to two different hierarchies of R3.
I will appreciate your replies.
Regards
Rahul Bindroo

Hi all,
But when I try to put the infopackage with first hierarchy in the process chain I dont get the save hiearchy and attribute change run automatically while as for attributes i get the attribute change run automatically.
If I have to add the load process 'Save hierachy ' i do the following steps:--
Drag and drop save hiearchy--->if i use F4 no list appears/if i create the variant i get a screen with the object type field -
What should I select there.......?>**
Am I following right steps or I am missing something.

How to stop a triggered process chain

Hi,
Does anyone know how to stop a process chain? It was accidentally triggered twice and we need to stop it. Thanks.

Hi,
There r 2 ways to kill the job.
One is using transation RSMO locate the job and display the status tab double click on the yellow light that is shown on the line total, a pop will come 'set overall status ' is displayed select the desired status that is red and save it. Then return to the monitor page and select the header tab double ckick on the data target right click and then goto 'manage',there should be request sitting there probably with yellow lights , highlight the line with the faulty request click the delete button then click refresh button.
Second is goto SM37 and click on the active selection and enter the jobname and then click excute the particulr job should appear highlight the jobname then click on the stop iconthat appears on the taskbar( 3 rd from left)
hope it is clear.

How to create messages in process chains?

Dear Gurus,
I want to use the alert system in the process chains. like when one process fails i have to receive the message on my mail or as an SMS on my mobile.
I tried the same thing with one of my process chain. When i right click one of my process in my process chain i will get the create message option. But my problem is i dont know how to use that option. If u have any solutions or any material please try to send me to the following ID <b>[email protected]</b>
Thanks in advance
Mohan Kumar

Hi,
You can also send messages to an application process of the chain, depending on the success or failure of the process.
1.       From the context menu of a process, create an additional process variant of the Send Message type.
2.       If you maintain a message, first specify whether you want the message to be sent when the process has been completed successfully or unsuccessfully. Then choose Next.
3.       You arrive at a window, in which you can select an existing process variant or create a new one.
4.       If you create a new process variant, edit the document that is going to be sent, and maintain a list of recipients.
5.       Save your process variant and go back a step.
The message process variant is now assigned to your application process. When the message is sent, the status information and the process log can also be sent.

How to schedule infospokes in process chains..

Hi All,
I have a few infospokes to be scheduled in a process chain. In each infospoke, I have upto 10 jobs that are to be scheduled one after the other. At the end of these jobs I have to run a FTP script. I am new at creating the process chains. So can anybody help me out in letting me know:
1. How to create a start process where I can select a given job by using its name
2. How to run a FTP script as a follow up step on completion of a previous step.
Thanks in advance
John

Hi John
it a big task to explain all so I will try to give you the high level picture.
1. process chain is easy to implement and learn.
   usually it is triggered either by a batch job or a
   batch job that fires an event.
2. to call an OS (like Win or Unix) from the PC you can
   trigger an event from the end of the PC to call a
   ABAP program that will initiate an OS call.
   you use trx: SM69   - External Operating Sys Commands
   to set this call up.
3. to implement an FTP you can do via a batch file with
   OS commands or by using free utilities (there are many of them).
I hope it helps.
