How to stop process chain if it yellow for long time

hello all,
I see that my process chain is running for long time and is yellow for more than last 24 hours now. I can see where the chain is stuck(not going ahead).
What do we normally do in such scenarios?
Also one more question I have is about delete PSA request process variant. Can i use the same variant in two different process chains, is yes than do I have to include the name of the PSA tables that are in both the process chains. When the variant runs in 1st chain does it delete the PSA tables from the second chain as well..(i hope i made this clear)
Thanks in advance

Once you have done with your init load manually. Then in case it was just the start of the process in ur Process Chain then first remove the chain from schedule and then go to the start process of the process chain and save the setting for immediate, uncheck the periodic box and save and then come out of the screen and then execute and activate the chain.
Note:
1. Before changing the setting in the start process make a note of the start time and also its periodic value.
2. Once the chain is completed then change the setting in the start process back to previous start time and periodic value.
3. Dont forget to save and activate the chain.

Hi Rajesh
GO to <b>RSPCM</b> check the sataus still its in yellow or green.If it is in yellow then
double clicjk on this it will takes to you in to the chain individually .Then check the
process ..
Or go to <b>RSPC</b> check wher exactly the chain is kicking.Then check the monitor
status of that particular process .This monitor u can achieve By double clicking on
the process-->it will show u a popup in that click on monitor.and then depends on t
the issue u can work and repeat .

how I can stop the process chain ??
If the job is running for a long time ,
1)GOTO RSMO and SM37 and check the long running job over there.
2)There you can see the status of the job.
3)If the job is still running you can kill that job
4)delete the failed request from data target.

How to stop process chain job in middle

Hi,
I have designed process chain ,to trigger following sequence of jobs
Step 1 Switching from Transactional cube to Basic cube and Vice versa.
Step 2 Loading data from Transactional cube to basic cube.
Step 3 Buffering the Scorecards.
My question is From Step1.
where i am using one ABAP program as process type( ABAP program functinality is it will switch Transactional cube to Basic cube if there is any yellow request in Transactional cube,If there is no yellow request in the Transactional cube,it should stop from step 1 it self, but I wrote a code to throw error to stop the job, in that case in sm 37 I am able to see cancelled job of this process I don't want to see cancelled job in SM 37 since this prcess chain has been sheduled for every 1 hour, is there any way to stop this job to not to proceed successive process. please give me some input from ur side
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
Shiva

Hi Shiva,
This is what we have done here:
1. Change the ABAP process type from "Process ends non-specifically" to "Process ends successful or incorrect" from Settings => Maintain Process Type.
2. Copy SE37 function "RSPC_ABAP_FINISH" to a Z-function. Add state as the input parameter and pass that to l_s_log-state and i_state (In Function Call).
3. Now in your program if you want to execute further step call this Z-function with status "F" else with "R" and give your ABAP Variant Name as the other input.
Let me know if you need more help.

RB

How to schedule Process Chain with Full Update for the past closed month

Hello,
I have an HR-BN benefits transactional data extractor - http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/08/b01d3cf8aa101ce10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
One of the selection fields for that extractor is calendar year/month 0CALMONTH and it is a full update extractor.
SAP recommends running this extractor once a month after the month has been closed.
If I were to include this update/extract into my process chain, would it be possible to automate the process in a way where the process chain is scheduled to execute once a month (I know how to do that), but that also only pulls values for the past/closed CALMONTH (as if it had a variable value of which would be automatically set to the last closed month when pchain is run)? As I mentioned 0CALMONTH is one of the selection criterias in the infopackage for that extractor.
let me know how I might be able to do that.
P.S. we are on BI 7.0/2004s
Thank you

For Calmonth selection in infopackage you can use the SAP-Exit OLAP Variable 0CMLMON (Last Month)
select Type "7" ("OLAP Variable")
and in Details of Type screen, Select OLAP Variable "0CMLMON" Which is SAP-Exit variable for Calmonth, that returns the last month from the current system-date.
If variable 0CMLMON is not active, you need to activate it from Business content.

How can we process the CRM Order again for second time in debugging mode

Hi,
Can anybody please tell me how can we process the CRM ORDER for second time. that I want to process in debugging mode.
Thanks,
bsv

Hi bsv,
Are you trying to reprocess a BDOC for debugging purpose?
If the BDOC is not with a final status, you will be able to reprocess it using the reprocess button in the smw01 search result list.
And you may put /h on the popup when you click on the 'reprocess' button.
If it is allowed to make some changes in the CRM ORDER for testin purpose, it would be easier to perform debugging.
A more 'careless' way is to deactivate the outbound or inbound queue in transaction smqs or smqr, then in smq1 or smq2 to locate the interested queue, and click on button 'debug LUW'.

hi,
Q: How to kill a long running job in SAP.
Answer
You can 'kill' your own long running jobs by doing the following.
Open a new SAP session.
In the new session, from the SAP R/3 screen, follow the menu path: Tools>>Administration
(new screen) Monitoring >>System monitoring>>User overview
Fastpath: /nsm04
Result: the "Overview of Users" screen appears. This is a list of the jobs currently running.
Find your username in the list and click on it
Click on the Sessions button .
Result: the Overview of Sessions screen appears.
Click on the End session button .
hi, ask your BASIS people for killing the job..

How to run ABAP Function Module in Background FOR LONG TIME?

I am not that experienced with ABAP. I am on SAP BI 7.0. I WANT TO RUN A FUNCTION MODULE
RSDRT_INFOCUBE_DATA_COPY.
I used SE37 and then executed the module, I supplied the parameters on the form which opped-up and then program started running. . Program was however interrupted after 10 minutes by ABAP. How can I run it in background without interruption?
THANKS A LOT.

Change parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time.
Default value for this is 600 seconds (10minutes).Change it to a time which you think you need for copying infocube data.
May be 5 hours.
PS:You can not run Function Module in background directly,but you can create a Z* program and call that FM from within that program and then run the program in background.
Hope this answers your query. Best of Luck!
Thanks and Regards

How to enable a printer which was offline for long time?

Hi,
One of our printers has not been used for a long time and was set to be permanently offline. Due to the need of printing, the printer was enabled. It is powered on (and can also be disabled and enabled) but is unable to print.
Is there anything in SAP to check to see why it is failing to print?
I have tried to check the status of this printer with other printer which is working fine. There is no difference in between their settings.
The spool requests are waiting to be printed. I would like to check the ip addresses of the printers. Is it possible to find them through SAP. My O/S is Unix.
Please help me to find the IP addresses of printers attached through SAP and I will try to check them first.
Thanks
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
Check SPAD -> output devices
Check thats the printer is properly setup and it been handled by and active spool server, check that the printer ip-address is correct and the right method is in place.
You can find the ip address of the printer by doing a ping <name of the printer> in a command prompt.

How to find process chain using background job in sm37

How to find process chain using background job in sm37

Better is to select the job.
Select (Define) Step (s) or F6.
Select the line and Menu Goto>Variant.
The variant contains the name of the CHAIN and its VARIANT.
Success
We faced an old job and via job monitoring we were informed about a cancelled job every 'interval'.
We noticed that the related chain was deleted but still the job was scheduled each interval again and was cancelled because an event was missing
We could not find the scheduled job via SM37.
Via view V_OP, view over tbtco abd tbtcp, we find the related entry.
We delete these entries via function BP_JOB_DELETE....

How to change process chain in SAP APO, in RSCP tcode.

HI SAP APO Experts
I am from SAP ABAP background, I need to change a 'AND' operator in process chain in RSCP tranaaction in SAP APO.
I dont have any idea how to change process chain.
Could you please help me how to change process chain in SAP APO in RSCP tcode.
Appreciate your help or comments.
Sandeep..

Hi Sandeep,
The t-code RSCP does not exist in SAP APO. The correct t-code is RSPC.
Step 1:- In RSPC t-code, select the process chain which you need to change.
Step 2:- Double click on it.
Step 3:- It will display the various programmes attached to the process chain. Go to change mode by clicking on the change indicator (Control + F9)
Step 4:- Select the programme area where you need to do the correction or change. Double click on it.
Step 5:- It will take you to the programme and its selection contents. Make the relevant changes. You can directly carry out the change in se38 also if there is variant kind of changes for that particular programme.
Step 6:- Once the changes are done, save the changes and press F3 button which will take you to the home page of the process chain
Step 7:- Save again so that the change in the programme alongwith the process chain will get saved.

Stopping Process Chain schedule for just one day...

Hi,
Our source systems and BI are getting a patch upgrade during this weekend and I need to stop all the Process Chains schedule for Friday night/ Saturday morning. Is there a simple way I can stop all the Process Chains from executing just for tomorrow instead of manually removing each PC from schedule and again putting them back on schedule on Saturday?
Thanks,
Sri.

Hi
You can reschedule them instead of de-schedule and schedule back.
1)open your process chain in rspc1
2) goto planning mode
3) right click on start --> display schedule job
4) select the job --> in menu bar --> click on first one from left --> change
here change the dates as per your requirement and save the job.
If you have any event based chains which are going to start after time based chains gets complete, no need to de-schedule as we are not going get trigger from time based chains.
I don't think so we have any program to de-schedule all the chains at a time.

Venkatesh

How to create Process chain for Aggregate for Master data

Hello friends,
I created Aggregates on Navigational Attributes.
Now they are working fine, but i need to know that how shall i create the Roll up for Aggregates on Navigational Attributes.
The point is the master data changes frequently a lot of time for e.g. for 0customer etc.....
So if any one can send me the step by step documents so as to know how to roll up the Aggregates for Navigation attributes or for aggregates created on Master data....
How to create process chains for the same ?????????
Because if master data changes, then rolling up the aggregates straight forward will not help.
So we need to write a process chain so that it deactivates the aggregate and reactivate again and fill up again..........
If i mis interpreted something please rectify it.......
Please advise

Hello,
the changerun that you have to schedule in order to activate the master data will adjust the aggregates automatically. There is no need to deactivate them after master data loads.
Best regards,
Ralf
