DTP failure which was in process chain after transport

Hi,
I created a DTP in Development Server and it get transported to QA successfully.
I also created a Prcocess Chain that execute that DTP. When I tried to transport this Process Chain to QA, transport was sucess but when i check in QA process chain was not in active mode. its showing the error that DTP is not in active A version.
Error:Process variant DTP_LOAD DTP_4AEIYC0UV528F7W1JL587E7HR does not exist in version A
I checked the DTP in QA and I noticed that the DTP has been converted to a different technical name which is not the same as the one I transported from Development.
Example: DTP DTP_LOAD DTP_4AEIYC0UV528F7W1JL587E7HR in Dev is converted to DTP_4AN4TVDRYNSMT95UGI48JVC6J in QA.
Please advise how I can transport the Process Chain that call this DTP from dev to QA

Hi Sri,
You need to collect your DTP along with the Process chain in the same request. When you migrate DTPs from DEV to QA , a new DTP ID are generated in QA system and your DTP in the Process chain points to DEV's DTP and that is why you get this error. You can also find more information when you turn on the " Detail View On" from the menu. This will display technical name of all the objects in your process chain.
so recollect your DTPs and the process chains objects in the same transport request and migrated to QA ,this will Fix you issue.
Hope it helps,
Cheers,
Balaji

Issues in Process chain after Transporting to Q

Hi All
I have couple of issues with my process chain (in Q). We have recently upgraded from BW3.5 to BI7.0. After upgrade i have a change made to one of my Process chain. i have transported it successfully to Q system. I have collected all the related objects associated with the change in the transport. But when try to see the changes changes in the process chain in Q system i have the following issues.
1. i do not see my changes in display mode. But i am able to see all the changes if i go to change mode (this looks weird and i dont know why)
2. i am unable to schdule the process chain in Q system as i was able to do earlier. Now it is asking for Transport when i try to schedule the process chain. this was not the case earlier.
3. In the transport i also collected a newly created infopackage and added it to the Process chain. But i do not see any link between the infopackage and the process chain (it was supposed to have a link as it had in DEV), i mean when i go to infopackage it used to give me a mesage saying the infopackage is already available in Process chain which i got in DEV.
All the above cases were working per normal in DEV systems tested and were collected as required in the transports and moved to Q
Please let me know ASAP if any of you have encountered similar problems before and have solutions. i saw couple of related threads (some suggested to directly activate the process chain in Q system by opening the Q systems as an alternate) but could not find a solution
Any sort of help will be really appreciated
Thanks

1. Display mode shows only the active version of Process chain. When you go into change mode, it displays the inactive version (if any available). Make sure you activate the process chain in the change mode. Then the chain you see in display and change mode will be in sync.
2. When you try to schedule, the Process chain will be activated as well. If your Q system is prompting for transport then probably the system is open for changes. If you want to modify process chains in Q and P systems, make appropriate Object Changeability settings in Transport connection in Q and P systems and make sure the system is closed for changes (SCC4).
3. Use Transport connection to collect the objects required for Process chain. After transport, check the transport log and make sure all the objects are imported successfully.

Process Chain after EVENT - More than once

Hi all, I would like to run a process chain after an event; everything works fine with the following model...
PC1 >>
     >> some processes
     >> EVENT TRIGGER
PC2 >>
     (after EVENT) runs ok after event ONLY if I SCHEDULE it
After succesfully run, I've tried to run again immediatly PC1 again and it runs ok, even triggers mentioned EVENT, but PC2 never runs again until I manually SCHEDULE it.
The answer is: how should I SCHEDULE the process chain PC2 so I'll "never" need again to SCHEDULE it when I want it to run after event triggered on PC1?
Hope you can help me.
Thanks a lot!
Bernardo

Hello,
Both process chains are separated. At the model I described, at the end of PC1 event is succesfully triggered. After event is triggered at PC1, PC2 triggers correctly due it is scheduled as "after event".
Everything works fine, then, if I trigger PC1 again it runs correctly; event is triggered succesfully but PC2 (that is scheduled as "after event") doesn't runs; this is because I haven't SCHEDULED it again (after the first succesfully run).
What I want is not schedule PC2 after a succesfully run. Is there any way to reach that purpose?
Thanks again!
Bernardo

Execute Process chain after infopackage run for a PC file

Hello all.
The scenario I need to solve is the following.
I have several files to be load to ODS from P users PC. I will do this with an info package. But after this load there are some more process that have to be run whoch are created in a process chain.
I would like to automate the execution of the precess chain right after the load from PC file is done.
Any sugestions?
Thanks and regards,

Hello Javier Alvarado,
If you use process chains, the automatically integrated processes are ignored and have to
be implemented using the process chain. If you schedule a specific process in a chain,
you support the automatic insertion of additional, relevant standard processes with the
consideration of such automatic actions.
For example, if you have selected the processing types Only PSA and Subsequently in
Data Targets in the InfoPackage from the tabstrip Processing, and you are using this
InfoPackage in a process chain, then the further processing into the data target does not
automatically happen. Instead, it only happens if the process Update PSA is scheduled in
the respective process chain after the loading process. Thus, the process chain
maintenance supports the automation in this case. In this way, you generate a process
variant for updating from the PSA in the chain when inserting the loading process with the
process types Only PSA and Subsequently in Data Targets automatically into a chain.
Well i am talking about 30B Version

Mohan.

Transport process chain by transport connection step by step

Hello expert:
how to transport process chain by transport connection step by step?
Many thanks,

Go to RSA1 -> Transport Connection.
Make sure Only Necessary objects is selected under Grouping.
Expand Process Chain -> Click on Select Objects -> Search for the process chain you want to transport.
Select it and click transfer.
When finished collecting - Click on the Red Truck. Create a transport request when prompted to create a request.
Then go to SE10 or SE09 -> Find your request and right click and select release on your transport request as well as the task under it.
After it is released you can check the log by clicking on the log button and see if your transport moved successfully to target system.
Good Luck.

Unable to find DTP from Process chain after SPS14

Hi BI-experts,
After applying SPS14 to our development and our test systems we are experiencing problems with our process chains. The latest problem is that after transporting one process chain (with dtp's) from dev to test the process chain states that the dtp does not exist in active version on test system. In the test system the process chain points to the wrong dtp technical name. The technical name it points to in test system is the techincal name of the DTP in development system. The dtp gets assigned a different name when transported to test, hence the reference to dtp is wrong in test.
I have tried the following:
- Reactivate the dtp on test- No success
- Deleting the dtp from test and transporting it and PC again - No
success
- Reactivating the PC and DTP on dev and transporting it again - No
sucess
Please help.

If anyone else experience this problem I can inform you that implementing note 1147587 solved it.

Save a csv file on local host, executing a DTP Open hub in a Process chain?

Hi All,
my client has asked me to try if there is a way to save in the local host c:\ a .CSV file generated from an Open HUB executed by a DTP in a Process chain.
when i execute my DTP it work correctly and it save the .csv file on my c:\ directory.
my client doesn't want to give th users authtorization on RSA1 and want to try if there is a way to put the DTP in a process chain
and when executing the process chain every user can have the file on his own local c:\ directory.
i tried this solution but it doesn't work i get an error on executin the process chain:
Runtime Errors         OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED
Except.                     CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL', was not
     caught in
    procedure "FILE_DELETE" "(METHOD)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    You attempted to use a 'NULL' object reference (points to 'nothing')
    access a component (variable: "CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>HANDLE").
    An object reference must point to an object (an instance of a class)
    before it can be used to access components.
    Either the reference was never set or it was set to 'NULL' using the
    CLEAR statement.
can you give some advices please?
Thanks for All
Bilal

Hi Bilal,
Unfortunately, DTPs belonging to Open Hubs wich are targeted to a local workstation file, can't be executed through a process chain.
The only way of including such DTP in a process chain is changing the Open Hub so that it writes the output file in the application server. Then, you can retrieve the file -through FTP or any other means- from the application server to the local workstation.
Hope this helps.

How to stop a process chain after the current running process

Hi experts,
I try to stop a running process chain, but only at the end of the current process load.
I try to unscheduled process chain : the job of the current process is killed and the process stop
I try to execute the programm rspc_process_finsh : same result.
Actually, I aim at waiting of the current process completion and stop the chain.
Thanks and regards,
Bobby

Hi all,
Thanks for answer.
If I resume the situation :
- Click on Unschedule process chain stop the current process. We have to change the status of the process in Yellow to Red.
- Go to sm37 to kill the job change the statut in red.
So there is no way to stop the running of a process chain only after the good or bad end of the last runnning process ?
Example :
My chain is running. The process which is running is a DTP loading process. There are 50 packages to load. I decide to click on Unschedule process chain when the package 18 is running.
If I do that, the loading of package 19 will not start right ?
So is there a way to wait that the 50 packages are loaded before that the system stop the chain ?
Thanks in advance,
Bobby.

Will DTP's take place in process chains

Hi,
Any one tell me that DTP's will take place in process chains,if yes how.In which situations DTP'S,transformations & datasources will come.Please tell me with suitable examples.
THANK YOU,
SEKHAR..

Hi,
Datasource :
The data source is PSA where the data from source system come and sit in the first place. usually the data is not
transformed in any means while coming to PSA. that means we are getting the data replicated from source system in to PSA.
Transformation :
Transformation is the set of rules that connects PSA and Data target (either DSO or CUBE).
This set of rules are designed so as to transform data based on requirement. for example from source we get grade as A,B and C. we need to load cost based on the grade. this can be achived using transformations. we can use a formula or simple abap program to achieve this.
DTP:
DTPs trigger the dataload from source to target. when transformation acts as a bridge between source and target, DTP selects the data that needs to move through the bridge.
DTP helps in selecting data using option full or delta and also using selection conditions.
So DTP is used to select data and acts as trigger to push data from source to target.
In process chains, we use infopackage to fetch data from source to PSA(datasource)
after that we run the dtp to push data from psa to target. So the answer for your question is yes we can use DTP in the Process chain.
Hope this clarifies your doubt..
Thanks and Regards,
Srinath

How to delete old schedule time of process chain after changing

I am try to change the schedule time of process chain on production but after changed the old schedule is still working (i.e. every day on 7 am I want change it to 6 am only) ,one process scheduled two time.
I want only last changed. How to remove the older one?
Thanks

hmm wierd...one more thing check if this process chain get trigger by anyother process chain by some abap program or any.
Check the table rspcchain to know if it has any meta chain or not. IF not follow the below steps :
make your process chain trigger based upon the event. Follow the below step.
1.SM64 ---> Create event -
> come to your process chain -> maintain the start variant -> event base---> give that event name here.Now we will be require to create the job which will trigger this event for this.
2.Let us take the below PC as example;
ZL_TD_HCM_004 -- This PC is running after event u2018START_ZL_TD_HCM_004u2019
3.Go to T Code: SM36 Here we define the Background job which will be available in SM37 after saving it.
4.It will ask for ABAP Program to be entered. Give it as Z_START_BI_EVENT and Select Variant from the list. (Based on Process chain, you can select it)
5.Then select Start Conditions and give the start time of process chain. and select periodicity.
6.Save the newly created job in SM36.It will be now available in SM37.
This should solve your problem now .. have fingure crossed
Thanks,
Deepak

Changes are not getting reflected in Process Chain after changes.

Hello,
I have modified a Process Chain in Development environment. I have created one new infopackage and included it in the process chain. I have also added two new change run variants in the process chain. I have collected the process chain and infopackage in a transport request and transported it to integration environment.
Transport request has reached successfully in integration but the changes in process chain are not getting reflected. The infopackage has reached to integration after transport.
I need some suggestion on this.
Regards,
Sanjay

Hi Sanjay.......
R u in Display mode..........click on Change mode...........
If you can see the chain in Change mode............then ur process chain is imported in in-active version..........
U can try activating it manually or re-transport the active version..........

Problem in process chain after upgrade

Hi,
We recently upgraded our sysetm to BI7.0 version.When I tried to run a process chain,it failed at the data load step.I tried to see the message but it is throwing an error like "object not persistent".so can somebody let me know what is the error here...
Thanks
Karthick

Hi Karthik
I assume variant(EXOR) has been used in another process chain which is inactive status, if we create Process Chain 'A' with variant (EXOR) and create another Process chain 'B 'with same variant(EXOR) and inactive status, PC 'A' doesn't execute though its in active status, it will work only when both process chains were in active status, please find in which process chain this variant has been used, remove/activate variant(EXOR) and execute your primary process chain, hope this will resolve your issue, please let me know if this doesn't resolve your issue

Invalid DataStore object name error when running process chain after EHP1

Hello,
We recently upgraded our BW Dev platform to NW7.01 EHP1 SP6. I noticed that the layout for "Delete PSA Request" process in the Process Chain has changed after the upgrade. We can no longer specify the actual PSA table to delete eg, /BIC/B0001645. Instead we need to specify the Datasource name and the Source System.
Now after the upgrade when I run one of my process chains, it fails at "Delete PSA Request" step with error message "Invalid DataStore object name /BIC/B0001645: Reason: No valid entry in table RSTS". This datasource is based on the flat file source system and the PSA table for this Datasource is /BIC/B0001653.
Unfortunately the process chain is picking up an older PSA table for this datasource and there is no way for me to specify the current PSA table name after this change in layout with EHP1 upgrade. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue.
Many Thanks,
Al

Hi,
Please implement OSS 1345331.
If this does not help try the below steps:
1. Run the report 'RSAR_PSA_CLEANUP_DIRECTORY/_MS' in check mode for a
       particular PSA table for finding the inconsistencies.
2.   After that please analyze the logs and if there is any problems related to partition, you need to correct them using the report u2013
3. 'SAP_PSA_PARTNO_CORRECT' in repair mode for the
      PSA tables. Run the report again after this
4. 'RSR_PSA_CLEANUP_DIRECTORY/_MS' in check mode to
     double check that the invalid partitions are
     corrected.
     Once this is done you can execute the report
     'RSR_PSA_CLEANUP_DIRECTORY/_MS' in repair mode.

Process chain - After error ABAP - trigger a metachain start does not work.

Hi,
I have a process chain, where after an ABAP runs into red (ERROR MESSAGE triggered), another process type, like start a new meta-chain, or start an infopackage starts.... But is does not work. After i go to logs, it asks me whether i want to trigger the following jobs, if i choose yes, it works. But i need to start it automatically, when the ABAP Routine has an error message (RED) in the chain.
Any idea, because I tried to solve it all the day, but i did not manage to get itwork...
Many Thanks,
L.

Hi,
the problem is not the ABAP Program.
I have the following situation:
A Metachain contains as second step a call of local chain. After the local chain, according to the status of it (green o red), we have other different steps. So we have two different link (red and green) starting from the local process chain step.
Inside the local process chain there is the ABAP program that check several parameters and if something is not as expected fails with status red. if this situation happens, the local process chain becomes red and in SM37 inside the job i see the error that i forced, but the status is not triggered to the first metachain , so the corresponding following steps are not triggered.
This issue happens only if fails the ABAP program because, for example, a Infopackages loading fails every thing works and the corresponding steps in the metachain are executed.
In the ABAP program in order to force the status red we have the following code:
MESSAGE e162(00) WITH 'Status' 'Red'.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Veronica
