Document on process chains plz

Question

Hello gurus
can anyone help with detail doucument on process chains, like how to create, enhance and   maintenance of process chains.
thanks in advance
points rewarded for the right answer

Answer 1

Process chains :
Metachain
---JR
Steps for Metachain :
1. Start ( In this variant set ur schedule times for this metachain )
2.Local Process Chain 1 ( Say its a master data process chain - Get into the start variant of this chain ( Sub chain - like any other chain ) and check the second radio button " Start using metachain or API " )
3.Local Process Chain 2 ( Say its a transaction data process chain do the same as in step 2 )
Steps for Process Chains in BI 7.0 for a Cube.
1. Start
2. Execute Infopackage
3. Delete Indexes for Cube
4.Execute DTP
5. Create Indexes for Cube
For DSO
1. Start
2. Execute Infopackage
3. Execute DTP
5. Activate DSO
For an IO
1. Start
2.Execute infopackage
3.Execute DTP
4.Attribute Change Run
Data to Cube thru a DSO
1. Start
2. Execute Infopackage ( loads till psa )
3.Execute DTP ( to load DSO frm PSA )
4.Activate DSO
5.Delete Indexes for Cube
6.Execute DTP ( to load Cube frm DSO )
7.Create Indexes for Cube
3.X
Master loading ( Attr, Text, Hierarchies )
Steps :
1.Start
2. Execute Infopackage ( say if you are loading 2 IO's just have them all parallel )
3.You might want to load in seq - Attributes - Texts - Hierarchies
4.And ( Connecting all Infopackages )
5.Attribute Change Run ( add all relevant IO's ).
Start
Infopackge1A(Attr)|Infopackge2A(Attr)
Infopackge1B(Txts)|Infopackge2B(Txts)
/_____________________|
Infopackge1C(Txts)______|
\_____________________|
\___________________|
__\___________________|
___\__________________|
______ And Processer_ ( Connect Infopackge1C & Infopackge2B )
__________|__________
Attribute Change Run ( Add Infobject 1 & Infoobject 2 to this variant )
1. Start
2. Delete Indexes for Cube
3. Execute Infopackage
4.Create Indexes for Cube
For DSO
1. Start
2. Execute Infopackage
3. Activate DSO
For an IO

3.Attribute Change Run
Data to Cube thru a DSO
1. Start
2. Execute Infopackage
3.Activate DSO
4.Delete Indexes for Cube
5.Execute Infopackage
6.Create Indexes for Cube
