Background Scheduling - Deadline Monitoring

Hi Experts,
I have created new maintenance plan , its around 250 for Mechanical and 250 for Electrical
Maintenance plan having strategy like every two month , every three month , every six month etc..
Scheduling period is 3 year
Now scheduling will be done through IP10 one time , but after first call object scheduling will get hold.
I want to make it background scheduling - Deadline Monitoring
Now the requirement is , For Example :
Maintenance plan X have PM plan date is 21.07.2014
Maintenance plan Y have PM plan date is 24.07.2014
Maintenance plan Z have PM plan date is 29.07.2014
As per above example each equipment will have different plan date , background scheduling can be done through IP30 but by the date is concern how can make it possible ?
Please advise each maintenance plan has to be run as per their plan date.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Hi Mr.Jogeshwara,
Nice Document , Its really useful
But my query is each equipment have different plan date , as explained in above example
If Maintenance plan have Cycle Unit 60 day and Plan X date is on 21.07.2014 then 21.07.2014+60day , same as if maintenance plan Y date is 25.07.2014 then 25.07.2014 +60day
Like that
background scheduling needs to be done as per cycle unit
If i will do background scheduling together of both the above maintenance plan X and Y then scheduling will be run exactly after 60 day and order will be generated in advance for Maintenance plan Y.
Hope you understand my query.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Difference between Periodic scheduling & deadline Monitoring.

Hi Gurus,
i want to know the difference between Periodic scheduling & deadline Monitoring.
its gud if u explained with short example.
Thanks in Advance..
regards,
Amol.

Hello,
If you enter the start date or initial counter reading in the scheduling parameters, then you can start the automatic deadline monitoring directly for the maintenance plan (see Scheduling a Maintenance Plan automatically).
If you do not enter the start date or initial counter reading in the scheduling parameters, then you must start the scheduling for the maintenance plan manually before you can start the automatic deadline monitoring (see First-Time Scheduling).
For More Details about Schedulin you can refer below Link [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/3c/abb350413911d1893d0000e8323c4f/content.htm]

Error in Schedule Background Job for Deadline Monitoring of swu3

While Auto Customization swu3 i am getting error message 'Output device "" not known' in 'Schedule Background Job for Deadline Monitoring'
Please advice what could be cause of it

the earlier problem of background job was solved by changing the output device assigned to user wf-batch .
regarding the transport request :
when i was trying to execute the step : "Schedule bakgrd for missed deadlines " MANUEL it was giving me an option of SAVE AND SCHEDULE . which was creating the transport request . but when i executed it automatically it worked fine without asking a request to me ... i don't know why )-: ... probablly we can specify a different interval then the standard of three minutes and which will be transported (it's just a guess) . i have executed it automatically ...
well thanks all for u r help

Execute Background Work Item using Deadline Monitoring

Hi All,
I want to execute a Background Task using Requested Start. The status of Work Item is Waiting. But it is not executing after Deadline reaches and in graphic log it displays no agent. As per my knowledge Background work item is executed by Workflow system itself.

Hi Bikash
check if the deadline monitoring job is running or not. SM37-> Check for job SWWDHEX
if not then schedule it from SWU3.
This is the job which actually picks up the waiting items (waiting for deadlines).

Requested End Deadline monitoring for Background Activity Step

Hi All,
Workflow for MSS Position change has been implemented in the system.
When a request was created thru Portal the Workflow was triggered but it got stuck.
I found that in a background activity step there is a requested end deadline monitoring which was reached.
Since it is a background activity there is no agent assigned, then what could be the reason that the deadline was reached ?
Can anyone tell me when is the Requested End deadline triggered ?
Regards,
Radhika.

Hello,
Yes, if it's workitem creation time + 1 minute then it means the deadline (any deadline - Latest End, Requested End, Requested Start etc, they're all the same, they just have different names) gets triggered.
What happens next depends on how that deadline has been defined - it may just send a message to someone and do nothing else (ie it leaves the background process running). Or it may be a modeled deadline set up to end the process. Have a look in the Requested End tab to see what it does.

Extended notification and deadline monitoring

We are using extended notification to deliver new and changed workitem by email. Now we want to update some workflow approval tasks to add deadline notification. In SWU3 workflow customizing, we had setup "Schedule Background Job for Deadline Monitoring" to run job RSWFSLSDLEX (previous version is SWWDHEX).
My question: if there is some outstanding workflow task meet the deadline, will the notification email sent out by job RSWFSLSDLEX or extended notification report SWN_SELSEN? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Donald

Hi,
The deadline monitoring job only creates additional workitems if a deadline is met, the sending of an email job retrieves workitems and sends them as email.
Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

Modelled Deadline Monitoring - Solution for the same

Hi All,
I have a requirement where i need to use modelled deadline monitoring. My requirement is that when a work item is sent to a specific group. If that group does not respond to the work item in 3 days i need to send an escalation mail to that group and their superiors. After that i need to send the escalation mail every day till the work item is not executed.. How do i acheive the same using modelled deadline monitoring and do i need to make a user decision for ths task or is it possible to do the same without that.
Awaiting your reply shortly.
Regards,
Lailu Philip.

Hi Philip,
I have an idea. But I dont know how much its is good. After 3 days, mail has to be send to the approver. Then make a one background method, In method write a code to append the workitem number into a custom table.
Now create one zprogram, and read the workitem ID from the custom table. Then find the work item status using table SWWIHEAD. Then write a condition, if the status is ready then send a mail to the user using the FM 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1. This whole logic will be in your zprogram.
Then schedule one job and assign this program to that job. So it will run once per day and find the work items with status ready and it will send the mail to the correcsponding User.
Finally you can delete the corresponding entry at the Ztable from your workflow.
I think It will work.
Thanks.

Background Scheduling Problem

Hi everyone,
I am getting problem in the BEx reporting.After loading the new data in the respective data targets, it is not reflecting in the BEx Analyzer. I have created the process chain, and loading is done in the background scheduling. I can see the updated request time and date in Monitor. It is showing that data is updated successfuly in the data targets.
But when I execute the report after 2hrs, It will reflect in the query and it will show the latest updated records.
If anybody knows the reason why it takes time to reflect in query, please give me some outputs.
Thanks,
Pandey

Hi Manoranjan,
If your data target is ODS, you can find the updated records for reporting only after activation. If it is InfoCube there could be some processs defined after dataload like create index,Stats and rollup if aggregate are present. may be this could be the reason...
Hope this helps..

Workflow Deadline Monitoring for SC in SRM 7.0

I have activated the deadline monitoring for WF_APPR_LATEST_START event for 1 hour. But didnt see any notification to the requestor and the approver. So need help here.
Below is the setting that i have done to activate deadline.
1. In Define event > BUS2121 > WF_APPR_LATEST_START:SC
2. Define Event Schema > BUS2121 > Event scema : SC > WF_APPR_LATEST_START:Message (low priority):APPROVAL_DEADL_NOTIFIC_NEW:1.
Thanks In Advance.

Masa thanks for replying..
They are in place.
I checked the Workitems Log for administrator ... and could see the workitem 'Trigger Event: 'WF_LATEST_START'' fired exactly after one hour the SC was created as set in the config... but no notification is sent to Outlook.
Background Job RSWWDHEX is also running every 5min ... But didnt see any notification.

Deadline monitoring is not working

HI,
i had requirement to change the text displayed in the decision step type. I copied that task using pftc and changed the description and i replaced the new task number with old one. the deadline monitoring is not working for the new task .
Please anybody have idea about why deadline is not working for the new task ?
advance thanks
regards
paveee

Hi Praveen,
Deadline is failing only for this workflow? Or is it failing completely in the whole system. Just create a small dummy WF with a standard decision step (or some acitvity) with deadline monitoring activated and see if it fails there also.
<b>If deadline monitoring is failing in all workflows</b>
Can you just check whether the scheduled report RSWWDHEX are executing properly. You can check it in SM37 for user WF-BATCH. Also check in ST22 if there are any dumps for report RSWWDHEX (for user WF-BATCH).
<b>If deadline monitoring is not failing in other workflows</b>
In your activity where you have put your cutom task goto the "Outcomes" tab an check if the outcome for your deadline monitoring is "Active" (This may not change but just have a check)
Also can you let us know what are the steps that you are using in your modelled outcome? Just suspecting if the first step in your modelled outcome is going to error (which is not displayed in log).
Thanks,
Prasath N

Doubt in deadline monitoring

Hi,
I have a user decision where deadline monitoring is active. To be specific "Latest Start" is activated. In the "Conditions" tab "Complete Work Item" tab has a condition set. The condition is Dflag = 'X'. This means when this condition "Dflag = X", is true, the status of the workitem is set to Completed. This condition is set in the deadline branch.
Question 1) Does this mean that the workitem will disappear from the inbox once deadline has reached and this condition has been set?
Question 2) If it doesnt disappear, then is it possible to execute the workitem after deadline is reached and this condition has been set?
The reason is when I see the techncal log I am observing the following.
1) Deadline has reached and Dflag has been set to X in the deadline branch.
2) Though the deadline has reached on "01.04.2007 - 11:31:05" the workitem has been processed on "02.04.2007 - 04:10:22 "
3) What should have happened is this workitem should be completed and the branch "Condition for 'Complete Work Item' is true" (bcoz conditions tab is set )should be executed.
Please help.
Thanks
Abhishek

Question 1) Does this mean that the workitem will disappear from the inbox once deadline has reached and this condition has been set?
-> The workitem will not disappear, it will be set to complete in ur case.
Question 2) If it doesnt disappear, then is it possible to execute the workitem after deadline is reached and this condition has been set?
If the condition has been set DFLG=X the workitem is already set to complete and it should go to the next processing step.
So as soon as you have the condition DFLAG=X WI should be set to complete and your path should get executed.
now - The fulfillment of the condition is checked by the background job for condition evaluation which is run periodical - i am not aware of which job does this but checking could be delayed cause of the periodic job.
What happened to the workitem after completion did ur path get executed at a later stage ?

Why we use tcode qa07 deadline monitoring batches

Dear Sir,
i m new in qm module,can u tell what is deadline monitoring baches,what exactly the use of this tcode-QA07
There is initial run days enter what the use of that days.its for transfer there quality stock to unrestricted befor retest date or what.
pl guide me

hi
this is for recurring inspection lot inspecion type 09
for ex : if your company is food grade industry having shelf life for every product. for ex one product having 1 month shelf life.
so if the batch's shelf life exceeded then system would automatically transfer that particulor batch into blocked stock and create inspection lot for that particulor batch. so this setting we have to define in QA07 and that we have schedule this variant so that this should be done back ground in QA05.

Deadline Monitoring for Maintenance Plans

Hi there,
i want to execute the deadline monitoring (IP30) for a maintenance plan in
a function module. Unfortunately I couldn't find a function module for this
purpose.
So I tried to execute RISTRA20 (program connected to IP30) with the
following statement:
SUBMIT ristra20
USING SELECTION-SCREEN '1000'
WITH SELECTION-TABLE rspar_tab
AND RETURN.
Problem with this call is that some dialogue-dynpros are shown - I want the deadline monitoring completely in the background.
Any ideas? Thx in advance..
Regards,
Markus

we have found similar problems in many PM jobs; in some cases there are some Notes pointing to the issue ( and fixing them, too ) ; for this case check Note 984177 and related.

How can u schedule or monitor Bacground jobs from OS level?

Hello,
I was faced one question recently in IBM interview,, How can u schedule or monitor Background Jobs through OS level.anyone pls help me.
regards,
balaram

In my knowledge, for scheduling background jobs in windows we can use scheduler.
In unix flavours, cronjobs or at commands can be used.
Again it depends on which version of OS we use.
hope this helps.

PM plan deadline monitoring

Hi,
I am creating pm plans for a year i.e. 365 pm plans i have maintain.
when i am going through IP 30- deadline monitoring for a month, system creates maintaince orders upto first 21 days only,
from 22 to 30 system shedules call object after day by day.
EX.- I run ip30 on date 1st may for may2011, system creates call object upto 21st may & scdedule next call object on 2nd may i.e for 22 pm plan & for next so on.
my client wants to all call object should call on 1st of may.
kinldly suggest procedures for that.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
sanjay

Hi,
I have tried this by changing call horizon as 100% & interval for call object is 30 days.
I have given input to IP30 as maintenance plan - pm1 to pm30 for next month.
orders are generated only for 1st june to 10 june, means only 10 pm plans has maintenance orders created.
remaining are scheduled on next dates i.e pm plan 11 has call date as 11.06.11.
kindly revert.
Regards
sanjay.
