Business Process Monitoring: Activate Business Processes

Hi!
I am on SAP Solution Manager 7.0 and have the following SAP landscape:
SAP XI/PI, SAP ERP 2005.
I would like to monitor the IDOCs sending from SAP ERP to SAP XI in Business Process Monitoring.
I successfully acitvated the Business Process Monitoring.
My problem:
I cannot choose/see any business processes in the area Business Process Monitoring Setup --> Business Processes.
I already defined the Solution Support Organization with 2 members and choossed all the monitoring roles.
Qurstion
How to make visible any business processes in this area?
Thank you very much!
regards
Thom

Hello Thom,
perhaps you should also have a look into the Setup Guide for Interface Monitoring under https://service.sap.com/bpm --> Media Library --> Technical Information.

  • Business Activity Monitoring for BPEL Processes

    Hello,
    IEP is capable of monitoring real time events, Real time business event collection and processing.
    In that case, can we use IEP to monitor BPEL process activities with activity data.
    One very big part, the ability to provide functionality for third parties (clients like Me) to register some sort of observer to capture live BPEL process activity, is missing.
    I'm trying to cover that big hole in my project. That's the reason I'm posting about BPEL process management capabilities and events.
    But I got no concrete answers for that. Not every business use can be provided by any generic system.
    I looked at CAM (which comes with Alaska build). But I couldn't get much info about entire picture.
    Other BPEL engines, the one I have used, has the functionality to do activity monitoring and process management. (IBM Process server, Apache ODE)
    Could any IEP, BPEL component developers answer any sort of solution to my use case?
    Thank you
    Raja

    I agree that this would be very useful. If anyone can provide additional insight it would be much appreciated.

  • Process Monitoring match 4 Processes, but only one needed

    Hello,
    i have a problem with the Process Monitoring Module in SMC 3.5. I will monitor one process with the name pmd, but 4 processes match on these chracters. How can i tell SMC that the Process Monitoring shows only the process who exactly Match the entered value ?
    Example:
    Wish to mointor process pmd:
    pmd
    ovtopmd
    etc. ..
    Process count 4,
    Have anyone a idea to solve this problem ?

    Hi,
    I will monitor one process with the name
    pmd, but 4 processes match on these chracters. How
    can i tell SMC that the Process Monitoring shows only
    the process who exactly Match the entered value ?Have you tried the extra optional user and/or argument filtering?
    If all 4 of your processes run as the same user, with the same arguments (or none at all) then you could also symlink a different file name to the binary you want so it appears in your ps output as something unique. That only works if you have control over what launches that process to begin with (so you can change it to call that new name as well).
    If you still can't make that process unique you could also write a small script to monitor it and dump back the interesting bits to stdout to be read by ScriptRunner (http://www.halcyoninc.com/products/ScriptRunner/index.php)

  • Setup Business Process monitoring does nothing

    Hi BPM Experts,
    i am new to BPM and trying to launch the setup of Business processing from Solman_workcenter. I have provided all appropriate roles and have configured the system in SMSY. I have completed the Creation of the solution and documented the business process via transaction dswp. now when i click on "Setup Business Process Monitoring" it asks me to select the active solution, i select the solution i had created and then i expect it to launch another session but it does nothing" did i miss something.
    regards
    Yogi

    Hi Yogi,
    After choosing a Solution you have created it should display a new SAP window showing "Change "Setup BPM -  "". If you are not getting it you can do it in 2 ways.
    1) Go to transaction DSWP select the solution that you have created, towards left choose "Operations Setup-> Solution Monitoring-> Business Process Monitoring-> Setup Business Process Monitoring" and then you can setup your BPM.
    2) If you want to do it via Solman_workcenter transaction then 1st open dswp select the solution towards left choose "Operations Setup-> Solution Monitoring-> Business Process Monitoring-> Setup Business Process Monitoring" and come out of that screen without setting up the BPM then open solman_workcenter transaction select "setup BPM" and then choose the solution that you have created and click on Ok. It will take you to the same screen as in Step 1.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks  & Best Regards,

  • Process monitor alert to include process id and or user

    I set up a SCOM 2012 process monitor from the process monitoring template, that now quite nicely alerts me when an instance of a process consumes too much CPU or too much Memory from the host. The problem I have now, is that I have 15 Remote Desktop
    Service hosts that my customers log on, to run this process, and an average of 45 users per RDSH. While it's nice to know which server has the process running too high, what I really need to know is the user and/or PID of the offending process. I easily have
    this process running 45 times per RDSH throughout the day. If I knew the PID or the user, I could much more easily find my process, and with user, I could even shadow my user via my service broker to see what's going on. As it is now, I have to myself RDP
    to the server, pull up task manager, sort by offended instance (memory or CPU), to find the task. Then, find the user/pid associate, go back to the service broker and shadow the session to determine the cause.
    I there a fairly simple way to get the PID or user information from the process to show up I the alert? I would think it pretty basic to expect that if I monitor a process, I want to the at least the PID of that process in the alert...and preferably
    the user. Other suggestions to accomplish this? I want to be able to hand these alerts (via notification) off to my support folks, so they have enough information to resolve the issue, without jumping from RDSH to RDSH.
    Thanks in advance!

  • Including a new Process Monitor Report

    Hi all
    I was wondering if by adding a new kind of report on the workbench under Process Monitor Reports (default reports are : Process Monitor, Process Monitor with Locks, Process Monitor All Categories, Process Status Period Range, Process Monitor Sorted by Location Hierarchy) I could modify the information showed by this "new report"
    For example currently if I generate the Process Monitor with Locks it will show every single location I have within my application, however I need this "new report" to show only some of those locations filtered by an attribute, I supposs the correct way to do this is to locate and modify the script being called by the adapter to publish this report. The problem is I can't find this so called script.
    Am I wrong and this publishing process is being done through an already compile library, a .dll ?? If this is the case is there anyway to override this call ??
    I hope I made my problem clear enough
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Login to FDQM (FDM) work bench client and click reports tab.
    Copy the report you want to modify and paste (I prefer to do this way, so we will not create any issues in the existing reports)
    change the report description.
    Right click on the report now. Clcik report definition properties, Click SQL tab on the top.
    Now add vpartcatpercartesian.partname like 'E%'. so you will get only locations starting with E in your report.

  • Business Process Monitoring with SAPCCMSR Agents

    Hi
    I have installed a SAPCCMSR Agent in a non-sap system to monitor log files.
    This is the configuration about a particularly log file:
    LOGFILE_TEMPLATE
    DIRECTORY="E:\LOG"
    FILENAME="senddata*.txt"
    PATTERN_0="error"
    VALUE_0=RED
    MONITOR_NEWEST_FILES=1
    In this folder every day, log are created (with name senddata-DD-MM-YYYY) and I would like to monitor only the last log produced to search for error.
    When the agent run, it creates a monitor in rz20 with the name of the current log(for example senddata-08-09-2014).
    Tomorrow when a new log will created, the monitor will change its name (for example in senddata-09-09-2014).
    I also want use business process monitoring to create a monitor and assign the mte in rz20.
    When I choose from a list which monitor assign, it give me the name of the ccms monitor that have the name valid for today(senddata-08-09-2014).
    The problem is that tomorrow this MTE will change its name and will invalidate my monitor in bpm.
    I tried to insert manually the value in bpm monitor like ...../senddata*/.... to see if dinamically, it will acquire the monitor with the name in rz20.
    But this doesn't work.
    Anyone have an idea on how monitor this?
    Thanks very much & Best regards
    Marco

    Hi Mark,
    When the agent run, it creates a monitor in rz20 with the name of the current log(for example senddata-08-09-2014).
    "senddata-08-09-2014 " - Is this the name of your log file created on OS level everyday ?
    If yes, then why not after every log switch after end of day, a file with name sendata replaces its old content with the contents of current logs ?
    This "replacing" is scheduled to run every 5 mins from OS level(cron script) and it picks the name of the file using current date method ?
    In this was you will have your monitor with same name.

  • Using ARIS process models as the foundation for Business Process Monitoring

    Hello,
    Do anyone know if you can use IDS Scheer ARIS process models and the integration between IDS Scheer ARIS and SAP Solution Manager as the starting point for end-to-end Business Process Monitoring (BPM) so that you get the process description/model automatically in Solution Manager BPM and just need to configure the monitoring (more or less that you monitor against the modelled process in ARIS)?
    Is there an API for SAP Solution Manager BPM so that non-SAP solutions/systems can be part of the end-to-end process monitoring?
    If not, how do you usually integrate non-SAP solutions that are part of an end-to-end process that you want to monitor into SAP Solution Manager BPM, or do you not use Solution Manager BPM for this?
    What is the roadmap for SAP around SAP Solution Manager BPM when it comes to non-SAP systems/applications/solutions and the new SAP NetWeaver BPM functionality?
    Regards,
    Markus Johansson

    Hello Markus,
    I just paste my answer form the other forum entry Re: Business process management strategy in SAP?
    in a nutshell BPM Netweaver is focussing on so called edge-processes (usually
    SOA-based and often workflow related). These edge-processes a thought to enhance exisitng core business processes and should provide the fast competitive edge versus competitors. Examples would be also xApps. For this Netweaver provides process modelling tools, where you can get exectuable code through the integration between CE and PI. The monitoring part for these processes is mainly targeting business end-users and business manager.
    Business Process Monitoring with Solution Manager focusses on core business processes which are realized with the "conventional", "old" SAP Architecture, e.g. Order-to-Cash or Procure-to-Pay. You get a combination of technical monitors (average response times of transactions, background job runtimes, monitors for IDOC or qRFC processing) and application related monitors (you get more than 200 pre-configured application monitors out-of-the-box like number of overdue customer orders or outbound deliveries or number of deliveries with goods issue posted but no invoice). The target group here is the support organization of the customer, from Basis-Support over application support on IT side to process owner on business department side.
    Overview presentations can be found under
    https://service.sap.com/bpm --> Media Library --> Customer Information -->
    "Business Process Monitoring - Part 1 & 2".
    Or look under https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/nw-processmonitoring
    In the end BPM Netweaver and BPMon SolMan are complementary for different purposes and different target groups.

  • Queries on Business Process Monitoring (BPM) & Interface Monitoring

    Dear all,
    I have got a few queries on the subject and would greatly appreciate any valuable inputs.
    Before I proceed, want to clarify that I have downloaded all overtly available  documents (PDFs, SIMs) from the following URLs:
    http://service.sap.com/rkt-solman
    http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager  Media Library
    http://service.sap.com/bpm Media Library
    I may not have read them all though since I come from a Functional angle.
    Kindly reply to whatever query you can please. Not all of them are sequential.
    Queries:
    (1) How are Interfaces with External Systems (beyond the firewall of the enterprise) monitored ?
    (2) Is it really worth listing all such External Systems as Logical Components in their own right ? I guess this makes sense if at a Process Step level, one wants to list a 'specific' Logical Component involved instead of 'generic' term like External System. However, it would benefit only if Interface Monitoring is feasible; isn't it ?
    (3) There are Interfaces which are built between SAP and External System and serve various Business Processes under various Business Scenarios. In such circumstances,  it is not easy to list which Process 'owns' the Interface. Therefore, under a normal Implementation Project structure (SOLAR02), choosing a particular Process Step, getting into 'Development' Tab and listing the Interface Program name may not be feasible, since there is no particular place where it belongs.
    Is it therefore a good idea to create namesake Scenario for capturing all interfaces and list a library of all interfaces and store documents right there ? If so, will these namesake processes be of any use in BPM at a later date ?
    (4) If my primary objective is to accomplish Interface Monitoring and not Business Process Monitoring per se, is it a good idea to create a new Solution Landscape, and manually create Business Processes that are suited to list Interfaces than to assign Template or Implementation Project to the Solution Landscape, and inherit those Processes ?
    (5) What is it that a SAP Competence (Support) Centre will find as a 'major' gain in activating BPM to monitor Interfaces alone - is there something that SolMan's BPM based Interface Monitoring gives more than what PI level reporting may provide them with ?
    (6) In Interfaces with Non-SAP Systems (some of them are old/ proprietary legacy systems with Credit Card companies; some of them are like 'Active Directory' servers), is it possible to define Metrics for BPM that such systems will contribute to SolMan, for reporting purposes ? Or, is it too much to hope for
    Thanks again, for your patience and advance thanks for your kind responses.

    Hi,
    Welcome to BPM
    You have asked too many questions in a single Post, Please read rules of engagement before posting
    You can monitor the following without any trouble.
    ●      ALE/EDI
    ●      qRFC
    1) Its obvious, if your firewall blocks all your request to external enterprise, it is not possible to monitor.
    3) These interfaces are not the one related to development tab in SOLAR02, you have to map them from BPM.
    4) Yes, you don't have to depend on any project for your processes, you can add it in your Solution Landscape.
    5) Post a Separate Thread!!!
    6) Post a Separate Thread!!!
    Hope this gives a better idea.

  • Business Process Monitoring: restrict authorization to confirm alerts

    Hello Experts,
    I am working with Solution Manager's Business Process Monitoring and I am now facing these questions regarding roles and authorizations to allow/forbid alert confirmation:
    - What is the authorization mechanism behind alert confirmation in BPM? Is a specific authorization object involved when pressing the button "Confirm selected"?
    - Is it possible to adjust roles (if no standard role is available) in order to have, for example,
    --Role1: give users the authorizations to walk through DSWP transaction, see business processes' alerts and confirm them
    --Role2: give users the authorizations to walk through DSWP transaction, see business processes' alerts but NOT allow them to confirm any alert?
    Our Solution Manager version:
    SAP EHP 1 for SAP Solution Manager 7.0 (SP22)
    ST-PI 2008_1_700 level2
    ST-SER 701_2008_2 level 6
    ST-A/PI 01M_CRM570
    I hope I managed to explain my doubts properly; any help will be very appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for your support,
    best regards
    Paolo

    Hello Paolo,
    it is the first time that I hear that request. Can you explain what your use case is? Why would you allow some users to see and analyze alerts but do not let them confirm the alerts if the problem is solved?
    As the user/date/time is logged if somebody confirms you have the transaparency who confirmed which alert at what point of time.
    I think that currently no such split in authorizations is supported but perhaps you can find something in the securtiy guide.

  • Monitoring proxy abap in business process monitoring

    Hi
    Expert. Iu2019m working with Business Process Monitoring in my Solution Manager 7.0 sp20.
    I would to monitor the communication between SAP ECC and SAP PI.
    SAP ECC and SAP PI communicate by proxy.
    I would know if can I monitor the proxy abap using SAP PI Message Error Monitoring based on Message-Based-Alerting (RWB).
    I have just defined the alert category in abap stack and in RWB. In RWB I have inserted all information in u201CConditionsu201D fields  and in the u201CWhere did the error occur?u201D fields I have chose:
    Integration engine : XI Proxy
    Error Code: *
    Is this the correct procedure to monitor a proxy abap?
    Thanks a lot
    Giou2019

    Hello Giovanni,
    The described procedure looks correct in general. If you have set any restrictions in "Conditions" fields than you will only monitor on these specific message. If not all message will be considered which turn into a error status on the ABAP Proxy.
    For information regarding the PI/XI Message Based Alerting please refer to service.sap.com/bpm -> Media Library -> Technical Information "Setup Guide - Interface Monitoring".

  • Information on Business Process Monitoring

    Hello experts,
    I want to know if there is a way to monitor spool jobs in business process monitoring or other tool? I assume that I can monitor background jobs with BPMon but I don't find where I can monitor the content of the spool generated by the job?
    I read also that job management can monitor jobs, but for the task "monitoring", it refers to BPMon.
    Can you please tell me if I can do it? because I read in some doc that it is possible but no way to find how.
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    BR,
    Mohamed BOUSSAID

    Hello Mohamed,
    the job monitoring does not allow the monitoring of a spool file as it is an unstructured TemSe file. If you have important information to monitor you should write it into the job log and classify it via message class, message type and message number. Such structured information can be easily monitored via BPMon.
    Monitoring the content of a unstrucutred spool file which can easily get several MB is too performance expensive and hence not supported.

  • What is Business Process Monitoring Tool (BPMT)?

    Dear colleagues
    There is also a strange tool named Business Process Monitoring Tool (BPMT), provided as an Add-on installation within SAP Netweaver 701 SP06
    [Note 1453759 - BPMT 701 Business Process Monitoring Tool: Installation|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1453759]
    What is it, and how it is connected with SAP NW BPM?
    Any explanation would be much appreciated

    Hi,
    this tool is to provide a business process monitoring within the ABAP stack. So you're able to get information about "how many processes of process X have not been finished, yet". This is based on several agents listening to the business process implementations (e.g. SAP Business Workflow) and provides those generated events to a monitoring engine.
    As far as I know this component has not been released, yet. I don't know the delivery date (maybe in QII or QIII 2011) --> who know's?
    Cheers

  • Roles for Business Process Monitoring

    Hi Expert,
    I'm working with sap solution manager and Business Process Monitoring.
    It works fine but I need to create particular roles for my users.
    I have created one solution with 2 business scenarios (scenario 1, scenario 2) and 10 Business Processes for each scenario.
    I would know if exist a role in order to allow user 1 to see only BP in  scenario 1 and allow user 2 to see only BP in  scenario 2.
    I saw roles: SAP_OP_DSWP_BPM and SAP_SMWORK_BPM but I didn't find any suitable authorization object to use.
    Thanks for collaboration
    best regards
    gio'

    Hi Giovanni,
    the answer is unfortunately no. There is no authorization object available that limits the visibility of business processes. You could only split by solution, so creating two solutions each containing 10 business processes.
    In general you can find information about roles and authorizations in SAP note 834534. There are several MS Excel files attached to this note.
