Process Chain Monitoring

Hi there,
ok i've found out that I can use rspc and rspcm to monitor my process chain.
but i don't really see any information on whether or when my process chain was triggered or not. all i see is information about when i did last changes and when i activated the chain, etc.
does that mean, it just was not triggered yet?
then i must have something wrong...

When you say it didnt trigger, is it waiting for a event..to run the process chain..
If it is the case, then you can go to SM37 and give in your selections for that event ..and look for any jobs ran or not.
Other way right click on your process chain and click on  Dispaly all jobs..this shows all jobs if it ran..and also scheduled jobs if any..
I guess in your case check if it is ever scheduled..
Regards

  • How to perform process chain monitoring

    Hi All,
    can u send me the steps how to perform process chain monitoring and what to do if we get any error in any process in the process chain. if possible if any one have the screen shots how to do kindly send me that link.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Naveen

    Transactions used to monitor the Process chains
    RSPCM
    SE38 >/SSA/BWT or ST13>BW-TOOLS
    --> clic on execute --> select the process chains radio button --> execute
    --> click on process chains -->if you want to monitor the specific process chain enter the process chain id or if you want to monitor the process chains that are running in a particular date and time interval simply enter the values and click on execute...
    it will display the process chains status and time of the runs etc...

  • BI Process chain monitoring from SOLMAN

    Hi,
    We have configured CEN in our landscape and successfuly managed to get data from satellite systems and getting alerts according to our requirement.
    But for BI Process chain Monitor we are getting alerts of yellow MTE with text "Entire chain now has status 'A'", which is flooding our mailbox. We cant find any way to stop this and to receive mails only for failed process chains i.e. for red MTE.
    Can you please help us in this?
    Thank you,
    Lena

    Hello Marco,
    the problem is that the Process Chain monitor is not yet available with ST-A/PI 01L*. Unfortunately the empty hull that you see during the setup was shipped without the proper content. The Process Chain monitor will be properly shipped with the next ST-PI and ST-A/PI combination in Q2/2010.
    Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
    If you want to have this monitor earlier on it could be implemented via Customer Exit in case that you have some MaxAttention or Safeguarding engagement.

  • To Automate Process Chain Monitoring

    Hi All,
    Currently we have process chain which extracts data from Informatica system and loads to BW DSO's.
    After successfull execution of process chain daily, we download data from PSA, and display only company code, reference key and data packet.
    We make a Pivot table in excel sheet to display only company code, refreence key and data packet.
    When I plan to automate it, I have a problem. I have all data with PSA table (company code, reference key & data packet).
    But I need to display data daily after execution of process chain. So the date is not getting captured with PSA table.
    Can you please help me on the same.
    Thanks.

    I think for displaying the 3 fields on a daily basis, you need to select the request based on date and then filter out the fileds using a select query in your code.

  • Process Chain Red 'X', Exec Infopckg Yellow, Infopckg monitor/data correct

    Dear and respectable colleagues of the forum,
    I am experiencing a problem in a process chain when executing infopackages. The process chain has 6 "Execute infopackage" processes. Sometimes (1 of 4 attempts average) my process chain ended with red color with 'X' status in the Process Chain Display Log View.
    Reviewing within the chain Log, there is one of the "Execute infopackage" processes that appears in yellow color (it loads from direct update ODS to an infocube). However, revising the Logs for its corresponding Infopackage execution I found that it says that "Data successfully updated". Moreover, If I review the data loaded it seems to have been loaded correctly.
    Then, Why does the "Execute infopackage" process in PC finishes with yellow color if the Infopackage execution itself finishes correclty?
    To complete the whole scenario: I execute this process chain every night from an Abap program; the program has a Loop that traverses a table, and executes the process chain as many times as the quantity of rows in that table (table has 10 rows meaning offices). As you can understand, the chain is executed 10 times, and the error occurs in any of the 6 "Execute infopackage" processes indistinctly.
    I review ST22 and SM37 for all users for the datetime when the error occured butnothing bizarre was reported. It is left to review SM21.
    The following is the detail of messages.
    Logs for Execute Infopackage

    Dear s v desh,
    I am on SAP BW 3.5, I already checked the cube and it is green - all right.
    The message in the infopackage excution node in the process chain says (non-error):
      "Data successfully updated"
    The error message in process chain monitor (log) says:
    ......"Overall status: Error occurred: or: Missing messages
    ............Process Chains : Errors occurred"
    I just realized that there is no messages at all in the infopackage monitor (log).
    I have received a clue, someone asked me to review note 1396417, and I will.

  • Report on process chains using SEM-BPS

    We are looking to develop a tool to:
    1. Monitor data loads at the process chain level
    2. Within in the same tool, enter error resolution /
       action steps for all failed loads
    3. Report out % of successful or failed loads, using the data captured by the tool.
    We have studied the BW Tables rspcchain, rspcchainattr, rspclogchain, rspcprocesslog, rspclogs, rseventchain and
    rspcchaint.
    We are considering the following options:
    1. Develop an ABAP report and allowing the process chain monitor to manually enter the error resolutions (Perhaps in a Z-Table)
    2. Create an InfoCube in BW using the above tables and then write a query, but we can not allow the user to enter error resolutions in the query.
    3. Create a transactional infocube in SEM-BPS using the above tables and use the input functionality of tansactional infocube to facilitate the error resolution report entry.
    Can anyone suggest any alternate solution, or has anyone encountered similar requirement on project?
    One more doubt to check: is there any way to create an infoobject with CHAR type to enter data with 1000 or more characters? Or is there any other alternative solution to it? The doubt is to take care of the text entry for the error resolution.
    Milind Vad

    Just some thoughts:
    Have you considered using document service in BW or even KM (Portal) technology rather than CHAR 1000+ fields? This would give you more flexibility also on the type of document.
    For loading there are monitors available (based on tables like RSMONMESS). If you are interested in loads only (and not other process types), maybe using information from the BW load monitor could be beneficial (like RSMONMESS) rather than the process chain stuff.
    Maybe it's even worth having an InfoObjekt with a resolution code that links to a document describing the resolution with a key and whenever there is a new solution available create a new key with a new document. That would be most beneficial for reporting (like how many times has this problem / resolution occurred and the like).

  • Process Chain Status Red, DTP status yellow, DTP is green from inside

    Hello All,
    I have a problem where the  Process Chain  status is red, but the process(DTP) status is yellow.
    When I right click on the yellow process there is no error message and the DTP is green in Process Monitor.
    But the chain did not complete and the rest of the process steps are grey.
    After 20 minutes the Process Chain ran again(automatically after new data arrived) and this time without errors and it went green.
    My question is, how to proceed with the red Process chain and complete the further process and make it green.
    Regards
    Alex

    hi,
    There are scenarios where you need to change status of a process chain or a particular step in process chain.
    You might need to change the status in the cases where we need mark these steps successful so that dependent steps get processed. There are other scenarios where one needs to change the status of a single step in the process chain or status of whole process chain.
    Step by step instructions on change process chain status
    1. Right click on the failed step in the process chain monitor and go to displaying messages
    2. Go to u2018Chainu2019 tab and note down variant, instance and start date
    3. Go to SE16 and the table RSPCPROCESSLOG and enter variant, instance and start dates from step 2 and note down log_id, type, variant, instance.
    4. Go to SE37 transaction and execute the function module RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH and enter the values from step 3 and enter the new status u2018Gu2019 in status field and execute the FM
    5. This sets the status of the process chain (PC)
    After you set the status using the FM, go to the monitor screen of the process chain, you will notice the changed status. Now dependent steps in the process chain will start running
    Thanks

  • Authorizations setting for running the process chain

    Hai
    Iam planning to run the process chain for loading the data into ODS. But i dont have authorization for it.
    so what are the authorizations i need to run the process chain in my system. And how can i set all those authorizations to my user-id.  I have all authorization rights .
    Pls let me knw
    kumar

    Hi,
    Authorizations for Process Chains
    Use
    You use authorization checks in process chain maintenance to lock the process chain, and the processes of the chain, against actions by unauthorized users.
    ·        You control whether a user is allowed to perform specific activities.
    ·        You control whether a user is allowed to schedule the processes in a chain.
    The authorization check for the processes in a chain runs when the system performs the check. This takes place upon scheduling or during synchronous execution. The check is performed in display mode. The check is performed for each user that schedules the chain; it is not performed for the user who executes the chain. The user who executes the chain is usually the BI background user. The BI background user automatically has the required authorizations for executing all BI process types. In attribute maintenance for the process chain, you can determine the user who is to execute the process chain.
    See also: Display/Maintenance of Process Chain Attributes ®  Execution User.
    Features
    For the administration processes that are bundled in a process chain, you require authorization for authorization object S_RS_ADMWB.
    To work with process chains, you require authorization for authorization object S_RS_PC. You use this authorization object to determine whether process chains can be displayed, changed or executed, and whether logs can be deleted. You can use the name of the process chain as the basis for the restriction, or restrict authorizations to chains using the application components to which they are assigned.
    Display/Maintain Process Chain Attributes
    Use
    You can display technical attributes, display or create documentation for a process chain, and determine the response of process chains during execution.
    Features
    You can display or maintain the following attributes for a process chain:
    Process Chain ® Attribute ® ...
    Information
    Description
    ( Rename)
    You can change the name of the process chain.
    Display Components
    Display components are the evaluation criterion in the process chain maintenance. Assigning the process chains to display components makes it easier to access the chain you want.
    To create a new display component, choose Assign Display Components in the input help window and assign a technical name and description for the display component in the Display Grouping dialog box that appears.
    Documents
    You can create and display documents for a process chain.
    For more information, see Documents.
    Last Changed By
    Displays the technical attributes of the process chain:
    ·        When it was last changed and who by
    ·        When it was last activated and who by
    ·        Object directory entry
    Evaluation of Process Status
    If you set this indicator, all the incorrect processes in this chain and in the overall status of the run are evaluated as successful; if you have scheduled a successor process upon error or always.
    The indicator is relevant when using metachains: Errors in the processes of the subchains can be evaluated as “unimportant” for the metachain run. The subchain is evaluated as successful, despite errors in such processes of the subchain. If, in the metachain, the successor of the subchain is scheduled upon success, the metachain run continues despite errors in “unimportant” processes of the subchain.
    Mailing and alerting are not affected by this indicator and are still triggered for incorrect processes if they have an upon error successor.
    Polling Indicator
    With this indicator you can control the response of the main process for distributed processes. Distributed processes, such as the load process, are characterized as having different work processes involved in specific tasks.
    With the polling indicator you determine whether the main process needs to be kept until the actual process has ended.
    By selecting the indicator:
    -         A high level of process security is guaranteed, and
    -         External scheduling tools can be provided with the status of the distributed processes.
    However, the system uses more resources; and a background process is required.
    Monitoring
    With the indicator in the dialog box Remove Chain from Automatic Monitoring?, you can specify that a process chain be removed from the automatic monitoring using CCMS.
    By default CCMS switches on the automatic process chain monitoring.
    For more information about the CCMS context Process Chains, see the section BW Monitor in CCMS.
    Alerting
    You can send alerts using alert management when errors occur in a process chain.
    For more information, see Send Alerts for Process Chains.
    Background Server
    You can specify here on which server or server group all of the jobs of a chain are scheduled. If you do not make an entry, the background management distributes the jobs between the available servers.
    Processing Client
    If you use process chains in a client-dependent application, you can determine here in which client the chain is to be used. You can only display, edit, schedule or execute the chain in this client.
    If you do not maintain this attribute, you can display, edit, schedule or execute the process chain in all clients.
    Process variants of type General Services that are contained in a process chain with this attribute set will only be displayed in the specified client.
    This attribute is transported. You can change it by specifying an import client during import. You must create a destination to the client set here in the target system for the import post processing (transaction RSTPRFC)  The chain is activated after import and scheduled, if necessary, in this client.
    Execution User
    In the standard setting a BI background user executes the process chain (BWREMOTE).
    You can change the default setting so that you can see the user that executes the process chain and therefore the processes, in the Job Overview. You can select the current dialog user who schedules the process chain job, or specify a different user.
    The setting is transported.
    The BI background user has all the necessary authorizations to execute all BI process types. Other users must assign themselves these authorizations so that authorization errors do not occur during processing.
    Job Priority
    You use this attribute to set the job priority for all of the jobs in a process chain.

    BW STATISTICS  
    If you are asking abt the flags that you see in RSA1 -> Tools -> BW Stats...you can check BW Stats for each and every infoprovider. Whenever you create an infopprovider you should always decide whether you want to turn on the BW Stats for this infoprovider. This is a manual step and can be done in each and every box individually or can be transported across the systems. Coming to your question...BW Stats are of two kinds...
    1) OLAP -
    If you check this flag for an infoprovider...all the statistical data for the queries built on this infoprovider gets updated into the corresponding infocubes (0BWTC_C02 and 0BWTC_C03). An example would be like number of users that ran the report in a given time, the average run time of the query and so on. This data is of immense value in deciding the steps for performance tuning techniques like aggregates!
    2) WHM (Warehouse Management) -
    If you turn this flag on for an infoprovider, all the statistical data like how often the cubes are loaded, when are the requests deleted from the infocubes, data abt condensing of cubes and so on is loaded into the corresponding cubes like 0BWTC_C04, 0BWTC_C05, 0BWTC_C09 and 0BWTC_C11.
    You have to activate the infopackages to load into these cubes and schedule them through process chain to run once in a while so that your statistical data is uptodate.
    Production support for maintaining the process chains primarily involves monitoring activities of all the chains that are running in the background...
    Errors in monitoring of process chains can be categorized into 4 different sections...
    Master data - Full Update
    Master data - Delta Update
    Transaction data - Full Update
    Transaction data - Delta Update.. in terms of loading of data which can be due to server shut down or system maintenance... errors due to incorrect entries in the OLTP system in which case you'll have to fix the errors in the PSA and manually load the data...
    Otherwise it can have errors on Attribute change run being locked by some other job... Aggregate Roll up failing because of attribute change run being run at the same time... Problem with hierarchies and save hierarchies...
    There can be problems with the data store activation if the ODS object contains any incorrect request sitting inside it... then, you need to delete the incorrect request and reload the data again...
    In case of Transaction Delta failure, you'll have to request for a repeat either manually in the infopackage or using the repeat option if available on right clicking the load event...
    For Master Data Delta failures, you need to do an Re-init by deleteing the previous initalization condition in the "initalization option for source systems" in the menu scheduler or reschedule the enitre chain... because, master data generally do not support repeat of last delta ...
    Majority of the issues will be based on these things only..

  • Process chain time stamp

    hi, I'm just starting to use SAP and was setup to do process chain monitoring.

  • Process Chains - Production Support

    Hi Gurus,
    I have doubt regarding process chains in production support system. Is the consultant who is working on production support on process chains monitoring, how many process chains are assigned to him( maximum). Is all the process chains are related to application specific, i mean like all the process chain related to SD, FICO, MM, and so on or from any application.
    Thanks in Advance..........
    Regards
    Ramakrishna Kamurthy

    Hi Ramakrishna,
    Process Chains can be triggered as Batch Jobs ... After completing the batch Job the consultant checks for any failure in process chain or whether the batch job run successfully or not.
    More over Process chains are categorised and  triggered based on how much time they are consuming to Load the Data.. normally first Master Data Chains will be triggered and then Transactional Data Chains
    So there will not be any count that a Consultant assigned with how many chains in production support, as its totally depends on the Batch Jobs triggered ....
    Hope this helps,
    Sudhakar.

  • Issues with a program,that exetutes SEM BPS sequence, into a Process Chain

    We have a process chain with a step which launches a program. That program executes a SEM BPS sequence. To set that request into green we have a step with other program which changes the planning cube to batch.
    Our two problems are:
    1) We cannot check in the process chain monitor if sequence finished all right because the step always finishes ok even if the sequence falls.
    2) Our SEM BPS sequence takes a long time and the process chain continues its execution without SEM BPS sequence is ended.
    Thanks a lot!
    Mario

    I am not sure if there is a solution to this in BW 3.x or SEM BPS. But if you can model the same planning sequence in BI-IP, then you can excute it in a process chain using a process chain variant.

       InfoSource : 0MAT_SALES
       Data type : Texts
       Source system: PRD-600
    In the tab Details I have:
    -the Overall status in red, error occures or missing messages
    -the requests, extractions,transfers,processing-everything is Ok-green
    -the Process Chains-errors occurred-red
    In the transaction RSPC the infopackage for load data OMAT_SALES is red,the next infopackage in the chain is green.
    What can I do to fix this problem  for Process Chain in RSPC and also in Monitoring (tab Details)?
    I will apreciate any answer,
    Thanks,
    Claudia

    The next connected infopackage must be connected with Always link that's why its processed even after the failure node. Go and cross check what errors you got for the failed process, and reload it manually.
