Back ground processes, dialogue processes and Process chains

Hai all,
I am going through making process chains and I am struck with one thing:
"How many background process chains and dialogue processes you have during run time"
This is the problem. I understood everything else except this.The concept says that I have to know what is the capacity of the system, how many background and dialogue processes it could accomodate, how many are left and how many you can use for your process chain.How do we find out this? and could somebody please explain me or refer to documentation about the Back ground processes, dialogue processes and Process chains.
Thanks.

Hi Visu,
You can see the number of dialog and background processes by using transaction SM51 and then double clicking on the server (we only have one but it may be different for each). Our BASIS folks take care of the number of processes as well. And, for us we have a schedule that changes the number at a certain time of day because you tend to need more dialog during the day but more batch at night.
The transaction to look at and change the settings is RZ03. Then use the menu path Edit->Operation Modes you can select either Configuration or Timetable here. Both give information in different ways. I tend to double click around to see what it might tell me.
I hope this helps a bit,
Diane

BPM - Process Performance Indicators and Process Monitoring

Hi,
In SAP BPM, is there any way to get some reports or dashboard with key PPI (Process Performance Indicators). What we are really interested in is to know how many times a month a process or a specific task of a process has been run, how many time it took to complete the task, was the task completed on time, where are we in the process right now, etc?
We have just started to look into SAP BPM, but my first impression is that it is more a modeling tool along with some taks coordinations. I feel like it's missing the key analytics to really drive innovation in our processes.
Probably that I'm wrong and I've missed something. Please let me know if there is a way to do that, if there are any workarounds or if there are any SAP partners that offer a solution that we could use along with SAP BPM.
Thanks a lot!
Martin

Thanks for your feedback.
We want to implement a SAP BPM scenario in a finance process for the VAT Tax reporting. So basically, our accountant needs to run some SAP transactions along with some manual outside steps. Then the supervisor will perform some checks and finally the tax manager needs to approve it.
There is some interactions with SAP but only for a small part of the process. What we want to achieve is to be able to see the key performance indicator for our process. But at the moment this is not delivered with SAP BPM. I've heard that this may come in the next release end of 2009, but in the meanwhile I'm wondering if other people have been able to implement some customization in Net Weaver or have found other alternatives to be able to monitor their process adequately.
Thanks
Martin

Internal Order process config details and process flow

Hi All,
Please help me,
I need process flow and configuration for assets to buy from vendors and store it and sell to our stores.
how to config Internal order configuration step by step and post to Asset management. (Instead of normal sales for revenue account).
Thanks and regards

Dear Ravi,
1. first create an internal order through KO01. That internal order type should be for investment purpose.
2. Give the relevant detials and go to investment tab and give investment profile.
3 Then in toolbar go to extras and select "asset under construction". An asset under construction would be created and give the details of this asset.
4. Then release the internal order in KO02.
5. Then go to GB60 and post a invoice with this internal order as account assignment object.
6. GO to KO02 and in extras see the order balance. that amount would be reflected in the order.
7. now go to KO88 and execute the internal order through which your internal order will be credited and AUC which you created would be debited.
8. Now go to KO02 and see the order balance it would show 0 as it is moved to AUC.
9. Now to go to settement rule and give the asset to which u want to transfer this amount and take the category as FXA and give the detials.
9. now go to KO02 and change the status of internal order to "TECO complete".
10 Now go to KO88 and execute the order and now the AUC is credited and your asset is debited.
This is the exhaustive steps which i think wil solve your purpose.
But make sure the configuration about the order type and investment profile are properly maintained.
Thanks

Process instruction characteristics and process messages

Hi,
Can anyone tell me why process instruction characteristics is required when only process message characteristics are displayed in PI sheets (input or output).
Regards
Joe

Hi,
Answer is already there in your question.
and that is
(input or output)
Now you creates the one Process Message characteristic let's it is Temperature.But how it's value comes in the PI Sheet (As Ouput or Input manually by user) that is decided by that Process Instruction Characteristic.
Now when you creates the Process Instruction Category (O12C) except type 0 you have choice of creates it by using help of Process Assistant.This Assistant assigns the Process Instruction Characteristic to the process Massage Characteristic automatically when you select the specific radio button or Activate the check box during that PI category creation.
For Example when you creates the PI category Type 2 using Assistant.Here after naming first screen comes to you is to define type of Process data Request.Here when you select the radio Button for Simple process data request then indirectly you assign the process Instruction characteristic PPPI_DATA_REQUEST_TYPE and its Value comes as Simple.
But when you create the PI category type 0 you have to assign this PI Characteristic manually because its Universal Category and there is no assistant which helps you.

Create back ground processes

Hi all,
I want to create back ground processes in BI to trigger my process chain variant.
Please tell me the steps to create this.
Please suggest the step by step doc.
Regards,
Macwan James.

hi,
When you try to schedule and activate a process chain , it will directly create a background job "BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER" which will start the process chain .
So directly it will assign the process chain to background job.
If you want to run PC once job finishes then -->, you will find an option while scheduling the process chain. Right click on Start variant and select "maintain variant" --> Select "Change Selections" --> Click on "After Event/After Job". Give the event name in the provided area in that screen. Now your process chain will execute after an event/job which runs in the background.
Hope it helps

Back ground processing of the LDAP

Hi,
We are on XI3.1, SP2.
We are using LDAP authentication.
We wants to know the back ground processing when a using login to the deski using LDAP authentication.
Any one please help on this.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & regards,
Collin Powell.

When logging with client tools the LDAP logon will be sent from the client, then the username will be authorized by the CMS which will in turn send a number of queries to the LDAP server to verify group membership. The variables include, graphtimeout (set or not) version/patch of BO (this behavior is different in 3.x vs XIR2 and even different in XIR2 SP2 vs SP4.
If you are not using SSL then all the traffic can be packet scanned using a tool like Micr4osoft netmon or wireshark.

What is back ground processing

what is difference between background and fore ground processing of a report. what are the various methods to execute a report in back ground. and when we need schedule a report in back ground how shall we handle selection screen parameters.
thanx in advance.

Hi,
<u><i>Background Processing</i></u>
There are two ways for you to handle,
one manually setting up the job through SM36 which is better and convinient,
secondly through program using FM's JOB_OPEN, SUBMIT, JOB_CLOSE.
Find below steps in doing both:
Procedure 1:
1. Goto Trans -> SM36
2. Define a job with the program and variant if any
3. Click on start condition in application tool bar
4. In the pop-up window, click on Date/Time
5. Below you can see a check box "Periodic Job"
6. Next click on Period Values
7. Select "Other Period"
8. Now give '15' for Minutes
9. Save the job
In SM37 u can check the status of the jobs that u have assigned to background...
Here u mention the job name or the report name to check the status of the job...
After mentioning the job name or program name u just execute it.. ( without any name also u can execute then it gives u all the jobs set by your user name..
the status colud be released,active,finished etc..
Procedure 2 via Program:
Below is a sample code for the same. Note the ZTEMP2 is the program i am scheduling with 15mins frequency.
DATA: P_JOBCNT LIKE TBTCJOB-JOBCOUNT,
      L_RELEASE(1) TYPE c.
   CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'
     EXPORTING
       JOBNAME                = 'ZTEMP2'

* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

       JOBNAME                           = 'ZTEMP2'

    EXCEPTIONS
      CANT_START_IMMEDIATE              = 1
      INVALID_STARTDATE                 = 2
