Init and delta uploads using process chain

Hi,
    I have a scenario where for the first upload i use init upload for that i have an infopackage now for the subsequent uploads i.e delta upload i get the option for the same only once i have run the init upload.
       so the doubt is can i use a process chain defined to carry out the whole task?????
Regards

Hi Virat,
AS init is a one time activity, so what you can do is.
1> set the init in infopack and run the process chain.
2> remove the infopack and then include a new infopack with delta option or change the existing infopack to delta option.
3> schedule the infopack.
whatever you are expecting is not possible.
Hope I answered your question.
THanks and Regards,
Suneel

  • How to Update Infoobject Masterdata using Process Chain

    Hello,
    I am trying to update the Master Data in Infoobjects (text and Attr) by using Process chain.
    The steps used are
    1. Delete data from PSA
    2. Execute Infopackage
    3. Execute DTP for Attr
    4. Run Attr Change
    5. Execute DTP for TEXT
    While updating Text, I am receiving error for duplicate entry.
    I am trying understand the correct process to update Infoobject Master Data in BI7 (SCM5/5.1). Please adivse.
    Thanks,
    Sanju

    HI Narendra,
    In process chain functions, you can use  the process type with the name Trigger Event Data Change (for BEx Broadcaster)
    The above process type must be used to determine which InfoProviders should be checked for data changes. You can specify multiple InfoProviders within this process type either directly (by simply entering the names of the InfoProviders) or indirectly by specifying the name of the variant based on one of the following process types:
    • Execute InfoPackage (LOADING)
    • Activate DataStore Object Data
    • Update DataStore Object Data (Further Updating)
    • Read PSA and Update Data Target
    Hope this helps

  • How to load delta to 2 target ODS 's from a single ODS using process chains

    Hi BW Gurus
    I am having a current ODS based on 2LIS_02_SCL, deltas also are working fine for it.
    our  requirement was based to have 2 target ODS on this existing ODS by using export generate datasource.
    I have to build a process chain that should enable us to load delta in our target ODS.
    Earlier manually for DEV purposes ,i was using the Update data into data targets from the source ODS, this was enabling us to load deltas. But to automate this process we will require a process chain.
    Finally , is there any process type in process chain for " Export generate Datasource".
    please suggest a good methodology for this scenario.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Ashfaq,
       Loading from ODS to CUBE is same as loading from datasource to ODS only.
    1. Create export datasource.
    2. Create update rules from ODS(export datasouce) to CUBE.
    3. Create infopackages(if you dont want to use generated once).
    4. include infopackage in process chain to load fromODS to CUBE.
        Intialize first manually and change settings in process chain infopackage to "Delta".
    5. You can append/enhance existing process chain(loading from datasource to ODS).
    Hope it Helps

  • How to create process chains,and how to use process like and or xor

    Hi,
    How to create process chains,and how to use process like and or xor.
    can any one please give me a example in each.
    Thanks,
    cheta.

    Hi Cheta,
    Here is step by step procedure to create process chains
    Process chain is nothing but executing a process ..(or) loading the data any process we can do in background.. that means.. automatically we can execute our process based on Time or any event..
    Creating Process Chains
    Prerequisites
    If you want to include a load process in the process chain, you need to have already created an InfoPackage.
    You cannot load flat file data from a client workstation in the background. For this reason, you have stored your data on an application server.
    Creating Process Chains
    You have the option of creating a process chain in the process chain maintenance screen directly or by using a maintenance dialog for a process:
    Creating a Process Chain Directly in the Process Chain Maintenance Screen
    You are in the BW Administrator Workbench.
    1. Click on the Process Chain Maintenance icon in the AWB toolbar.
    The Process Chain Selection dialog window appears.
    2. Choose Create.
    3. Enter the technical name and a description of the chain, and confirm your entry.
    The Add Start Process dialog window appears.
    4. Create a variant for a start process.
    1. a. On the Maintain Start Process screen, choose whether you want to schedule the chain directly or whether you want to start it using a metachain.
    2. b. If you choose to schedule the chain directly, enter the start date value for the chain under Change Selections and save your entries.
    The Maintain Start Process screen appears again.
    3. c. Save your entries, return to the previous screen and confirm your entries in the Add Start Process dialog window.
    You are taken to the Plan View of the process chain maintenance screen.
    In the left-hand area of the screen, a navigation area is displayed. In the right-hand area of the screen, the process chain is displayed.
    5. Use the drag-and-drop function to add the relevant processes into your process chain.
    You use the Process Types function to select the processes. This sorts the process types according to different categories. You can also call up InfoPackages and processes for the data target from the separate InfoSources and Data Targets navigation trees.
    Hope this helps

  • Full upload after INIT and Delta

    Hi Experts,
    a quick question - If there is INIT and Delta infopackage running  and I do another infopackage with full update option, will there be any issue in Delta?
    when do I need to run repair? only when there is possibility of duplicate loading?
    Thanks - SM

    Thanks Srini/Vikram for your respone.
    when there is deltas already running for the datasource , you can't request for Full but you can request using 'Repair full' which will acts and extract data as full load and it won't disturb present delta's
    >>. Thanks Srini. thats bottom line... after delta, you need to run repair full not full. and repair full will also pull data from setup table (history). I was thinking repair full is for taking care of duplicate, but dups we need to remove manually.
    where is repair full option in IP?
    where I can see all INIT conditions for a infopackage? for example INIT was done 3-4 times.. year 2001-2002, 2002-2003 etc, so all these INIT crit should be stored somewhere?

  • Data load Error using Process chain

    Hi,
    In NW2004s when I schedule delta loads for 2LIS_11_VAITM using process chains, when there is zero delta, the manage screens of the infocubes show green light with zero records correctly whereas the process chain log display shows red. The details of the process monitor show zero records. Is this right? I assume that even if there is zero delta, the log must show green and all the subsequent processes like activation of ODS, deleting of PSA, construction of indexes must be carried out. Please confirm. Is this a bug?
    Thanks.

    Hi Victor,
    Can you please advice how you solved issue as we are having similar issue where it works fine when loaded manually but throws communication error when process chain runs, following is error message..

  • Loading Data Using Process Chains

    Hi All,
    we are having 3 layers for loading data using DB connect i.e 1st and 2nd layers we are having DSO's and the 3rd layer is cube.we are following the following updates for the 3 layers
    1st layer- full
    2nd layer - delta
    3rd -delta
    is there any possibilites of getting duplicates in the cube and if so how to solve this one using process chains
    regards,

    Hi,
    Your dataflow looks ok.
    Hopefully you are using "Std DSO", there is no chances of getting duplicate records.
    But in case...
    If you are using "WO DSO" with check box "Do not check Uniqueness of records"
    In this situation you will get the duplicate... as "WO DSO" with this property will simply keep on adding adding the records.
    Thanks

  • Middleware: BDoc to IDoc conversion - init and delta

    Hi,
    First of all let me just say, that I know nothing about CRM (I'm an XI guy), but need to investigate on a matter, so please take that into accound when reading this post and responding to it.
    Scenario:
    Business Partners, Business Transaction Messages (orders and activities) need to be replicated to an external system. This is achieved by converting BDocs for the respective messages into IDocs via CRM Middleware and then sending IDoc to XI which in turn posts data to external database. This process should function both INIT and DELTA.
    So far so good.
    The problem is when having created for instance a new direct order and saved it. The BDoc is generated and converted to IDoc (CRMXIF_ORDER_SAVE02). In the fields OBJECT_TASK in the IDoc I get the expected 'I' for INSERT. This is what I expect.
    Now, if I make a change to the order and saves it again the generated IDoc still contains just an 'I' for INSERT in the before mentioned fields. This is not to be expected - should be an 'U' for UPDATE, but this does not happen.
    Anybody have any ideas why this happens and what is wrong?
    Best Regards,
    Daniel

    Hi,
    Thanks for your answer. I'm on CRM 5.0. The note you mentioned seems not to be related to my problem. My question is regarding "download" of data from CRM to XI through CRM middleware. When trying to do this the "change pointers" (fields OBJECT_TASK and/or TASK) are not set correctly in the IDoc's generated by middleware (everything is writtens INSERTs), which means I cannot from XI determine by the data received if I'm to perform an update/insert/delete into the database.
    Best regards,
    Daniel

  • How to load hierarchies using process chains

    Hi ,
    Can any one please explain the steps for loading hierarchies using process chain.whenever i drag the hierarchy infopcakage Save variant is also coming by default,so do we need to have different SAve variant for different hierarchy infopackages or can we have one save variant for all the hierarchy variables.
    Thanks,
    Vaka

    Hello Veka,
    How r u ?
    Yes ! SAVE Variant & Attribute Change Run will add up while loading the Hierarchy InfoPackage.
    Provide the InfoObject Name for which u r loading the Hierarchy in the SAVE variant and SAVE it. The same will be transferred to the Attribute Change Run also.
    If u r creating the Chain with more InfoPackages then have the Save Variant & Attribute Change Run at the last.

  • Need suggestions in doing my Init and Deltas

    Hello Experts,
    I am using the standard SALES OVERVIEW cube to store the sales data. I have introduced the custom built ODS to store the order level data in my flows. I am about to test my flows but I am afraid if the custom built ODS in the flows will create any problem while doing deltas as the standard Datasources are designed to update the cube directly.
    One more thing is, If I do the init and deltas now for my testing, is it possible to delete all the data from ODS and the cibe and do the init again and start the deltas? Will the custom ODS be a problem in such scenarios? I am assigning the 0RECORDMODE to 0STORNO in the transfer rules.
    Rgds,
    Nene.

    Hi
    You can test init and delta loads in both the ODS and Cube
    You can later on delete all the requests in the ODS and cube if you want to
    init again
    Assign points if useful

  • Need help in triggering the Data stream load  using process chain

    Hi Guru's
    is it possible to trigger a data stream load using process chain?
    Any help is highly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Indiran

    Hi Indiran and welcome aboard!
    Don't think this is possible. SAP BW & SAP SEM-BCS are rather independent systems. Though, BCS lives on top of BI-BW stack, it even may have master data different from those in BW.
    Process chains, AFAIK, is completely the BW's feature. Certainly, you may use PCc on BW side, loading ODS/DSO and cubes involved in BCS data model.
    The main con here is the lost transparency -- you don't control everything from the consolidation monitor.
    The pro side is also rather obvious for me. Since, very often there is a huge difference between data quality at the data source and in the BCS totals cube, I need to make a lot of data transformation. Not only some data calculations or cleaning, but also transformation of data model: key figure model -> account model. It's much more easier to do in BW, for me.
    I even call the ODS/cubes/routines involved in such transformation as intermediate layer, the layer between data source and SEM-BCS.
    And this layer lives rather independently from BCS.
    Hope this helps.
