Compress aggregates via a process chain

I am rolling up aggregates and not compressing the aggregate.  I would like to do this in a process chain for anything older than 10 days.  Can anyone advise on how I can do this
Thanks

i guess you cant delete that request which is already compressed, system doent allow you to delete those request  and regarding problematic request you can do selective deletion if required

*If an info-cube is compressed then keeping aggregates uncompressed wont help you as request id will be lost.
also you can try out collapse-> Select radio button Calculate Request ids ->Only compress those requests that are older than certain days also please note one thing request ,it will compress the below requests*
hope it helps

  • Bex Broadcasting via ABAP / Process Chain

    Hi,
    is it possible to start a Broadcasting Setting (Excel-Workbook on an InfoSet) via an process chain or ABAP programm through an process chain. The data change in InfoProvider process only applies to DSOs, Cube etc. but not InfoSets.
    thx in advance!

    Hi,
    I have not tried this, but i think it would work.
    1. Create a new event in SM64.
    2. In the Chain at the step where you want to trigger brodcast include an ABAP Program which would trigger the event which you created in SM64.
    3. In SM36 create a Job with name "TP_BROADCASTING_*" where * will be the name which you can define for your job.
    4. In Step add the ABAP Program "RSRD_BROADCAST_FOR_TIMEPOINT" and schedule the Job to start by event created by you in SM36.
    5. In the Broadcaster set the Dispatch to start with this option.
    Or the other way you can do is If your Infoset is containg an ODS and an Infoobject. you can place the step " data change in InfoProvider" after the ODS and also after the Infoobject but include ODS in the variant.

  • How to deactivate aggregates in a process chain

    Hi all,
    Can anybody help me to find a way to deactivate aggregates in a process chain?
    Right now I have a problem with some aggregates that occure a runtime error within the change run. But it works when I deactvate them before the change run and actvate them after it again. It's an easy way to do until I will have a solution for this problem. But I don't want to deactivate them always manually because my change run is during the night. So I'm looking for a way to schedule it.
    Bye,
       Anja

    Hi Anja,
    insert a ABAP-Process and use Standard-Report
    SAP_AGGREGATES_DEACTIVATE. You can check with Transaction
    SE38.
    As Variant for the Report use the Infocubename.
    You can use the Report SAP_AGGREGATES_ACTIVATE_FILL
    to activate and fill the aggegates.

  • Best Practices for Loading Master Data via a Process Chain

    Currently, we load attributes, text, and hierarchies before loading the transactional data.  We have one meta chain.  To load the master data it is taking more than 2 hours.  Most of the master data is full loads.  We've noticed that a lot of the master data, especially text, has not changed or changed very little since we implemented 18 months ago.  Is there a precedence or best practice to follow such as do we remove these processes from the chain?  If so, how often should it be run?  We would really like to reduce the amount of the master data loading time.  Is there any documentation that I can refer to?  What are other organizations doing to reduce the amount of time to load master data?
    Thanks!
    Debby

    Hi Debby,
    I assume you're loading Master Data from a BI system? The forum here are related to SAP NetWeaver MDM, so maybe you should ask this question in a BI forum?
    Nevertheless, if your data isn't changed this much, maybe you could use a delta mechanism for extraction? This would send only the changed records and not all the unchanged all the time. But this depends on your master data and of course on your extractors.
    Cheers

  • Process Type ABAP does not work properly via process chain

    Dear SDNers
    I am running a process chain and it contains process type ABAP program. ABAP program was running correctly till now via this process chain. ABAP program process type generally takes approximately 2 hours to run. But now, this process type for ABAP program just run for less than 1 minute and finishes successfully. The issue is that ABAP program does not run at all.
    I ran the ABAP program in background and it took approximately 2 hours to run. ABAP Program is local means in our BW system and does not involve Remote Function call. We have BI7.0 system
    Has some one came across this type of issue?
    Best Regards
    Pradip

    Has the aleremote user or which ever user you have defined for background scheduling changed permissions recently?
    What happens if you create an adhoc chain and include this ABAP variant, does it run then?
    What does the log say in SM37 when run via process chain?
    Cheers

  • How to delete masterdata via process-chain

    Hi Specialists,
    I need to delete masterdata which is not used in any cube/osd on a daily base.
    But I cannot find a possibility to do that via the process-chain. There seems only to
    be the option to delete the content of cubes and ods-object, but not of info-objects.
    Could you please gimme some hint?!
    Best regards,
      Marco

    Use function module RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA  in a ABAP program.. then schedule it in process chain..

  • Compression through process chain

    Hi Gurus,
    I have 76 cubes in my producation system.
    I want compress all cubes through process chain in every weekend.
    adding all cubes in one process chain...
    pls suggest me ,
    thanks,alex

    When using the 'Compression of the InfoCube' Process Variant, you don't have the capability of given a date range or year/month of requests to compress. It only has the capability of n days old.
    So, you'd have to create two Process Variants, one with marker and one without, for each month of requests to be compressed. Since you haven't compressed for two years, the values to put in the 'Collapse only those requests that were loaded XXX days ago' would be:
    730
    700
    670
    640
    610
    580
    550
    So in total, you're going to end up with something like 50 Process Variants (25 with marker and 25 without marker). You'd want then to execute in inverse order (730 first, then 710, then 670, and so on) so that it does only 30 days worth of work.
    Then once you have completed compressing the InfoCubes, you can then remove all of these Process Variants and only have one with marker and one without and set to how many days old you wish (SAP recommended to us not to compress requests that are less than 21 days old in the case there's an issue with a request - once you compress a request you can't identify and delete data by request).

  • Run/Schedule HANA Procedure via Process Chain or Similar - BW on HANA

    Hello Experts,
    We have BW 7.4 on HANA database(rev 74). We are working on mixed scenario approach.
    We have few of the stored procedure in HANA. We want to schedule it.
    Is there any way to schedule it via BW process chain or any similar thing?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Rakesh

    Hi Rakesh,
    there is already a nice blog post which describes one way to integrate your stored procedures in a process chain: How to schedule SAP HANA procedures by using SAP BW Process Chains
    As Lars said. If you do not need the process chain integration you can use the XS Jobs: Scheduling XS Jobs - SAP HANA Developer Guide for SAP HANA Studio - SAP Library

  • How to delete master data via process chain

    Hi All,
    I have to delete master data before loading it again via a process chain.
    In the process chain I chose the process " complete deletion of the data target content" but here I did not find infoobject as the data target option to delete the data.
    Please suggest how to solve this.
    Thanks,
    Harini

    Hi Harini,
    P_CHABNM - It is for the reference characteristic.
    I think if you dont have a ref characteristic then give the info-object name.
    This is what I fetched fom help.
    Reference characteristic
    The reference characteristic has the technical properties of a characteristic such as data type and length, as well as the master data (attributes, texts and hierarchies). The characteristic itself also has buinesses semantics.  Several characteristics can refer to the same reference  characteristic. Such characteristics automatically have the same technical properties and master data.
    Example:
    The characteristics sender cost center and receiver cost center use the reference characteristiccost center and with it the same values and the same texts.

  • How to create process variant in process chain

    What is a process variant? i try to add Infocube compression to the fi process chain. To accomplish this task, i have to create process variant. please tell me the step by step process how to create process variant and successfully add the compression to the process chain. Can i do it directly in production? Thanks to SDN community that i can count on.

    Hi Rafi,
    <b>Process variants</b>
    The process variant is the name of the process Within the process chain context, it displays the configuration of a process of a particular type set at the time of definition. A variant is only consistently defined together with the process type. A process can have various variants. With the load process for example, the name of the InfoPackage is the name of the process variant.
    The user defines the process variant at the time when the process is scheduled. With some process types, the variants are determined internally and are stored as GUIDs.

       You can create process chains directly in Production. Most of the times system allows(depends on system settings). But this is not a proper way of working. Create in Development and transport it to Production.

  • Deleting Data/ Process Chains

    Hi All,
            I want to delete data from a number of cubes, and also after deleting I want to make sure that no data is to be loaded into these cubes via any process chains that are already present and loading. My Question is by looking at a cube how can I find out if a process chain is doing so?

    I found them,. If I do not see process chains does that mean that particular cube is not in process chains?

  • InfoPackage Hangs when called from Process Chain

    We recently implemented the 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL DataSource and have scheduled the execution of a Delta InfoPackage in our nightly Process Chains.
    After working correctly for 2 weeks the InfoPackage has hung the last 3 nights. It is being called and when I view the process chain log it is in the yellow (in process) status. When I look in SM37 in R/3 the extractor has not been called.
    All of our master data and transactional data from other areas runs prior to this extractor and works perfectly via the process chain and if I force the InfoPackage to red and re-execute manually for 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL I have no problems.
    How/where should I troubleshoot this?

    Hi Jonathan,
    Goto your process chain-> Select the delta infopackage -> right click and select wait time and enter the time in seconds. You could set it to 600 secs(10 minutes).
    This would be a permanent solution to your problem as you need not go to BD87 each time for your data load.

  • Problem in Process chain due to Aggregate Roll-up

    Hi,
    I have a Infocube with Aggregates built on it.  I have loaded data in the Infocube from 2000 to 2008, Rolled up & Compressed the aggregates for this.
    I have also loaded the 2009 data in the same Infocube using Prior Month & Current Month Infopackage for which i am only Rolling up the aggregate and no Compression of aggregates is done.  The Current & Prior month load runs through Process chain on a daily basis at 4 times per day.  The Process chain is built in such a way that it deletes the overlapping requests when it is loading for the second/third/fourth time on a day.
    The problem here is, when the overlapping requests are deleted, the Process Chain is also taking the Aggregates compressed requests (2000 to 2008 Data), de-compressing it, De-activating the aggregates, Activating the Aggregates again, Re-filling & compressing the aggregates again.  This nearly takes 1 hour of time for the Process Chain to run which should take not more than 3 minutes.
    So, what could be done to tackle this problem?  Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Murali

    Hi all,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Arun: The problem with the solution you gave is "Untill i roll-up the aggregates for the Current & Prior Month Infopackage the Ready for Reporting symbol is not appearing for the particular request".
    Thanks,

  • BI IP Executing planning sequence via process chain not possible

    Hi,
    we use BI IP and have defined a process chain (RSPC) with value type process planning sequence. When we execute it, we get error message
    "Inconsistent input parameter (parameter: <unknown>, value <unknown>)"
    When we execute this planning sequence via the modeller or via SE38 RSPLS_PLSEQ_EXECUTE everything works fine. I thougt the cause could be the user of the job itself (job is executed with different user, and variant of planning sequence is user-dependent!), but I changed the user in the job itself as well without results.
    any thoughts?

    Hi,
    I executed with my user and have a SAP_ALL authorization. Perhaps it could be because we use authorisation with the old method (4.0) (-> I'm not sure on this). I also think it has to do with authorization. I'll check this out with our authorization consultant.
