Error in Step Copy Plan version in Process Chain

Hi all,
We have  step in Process Chain called 'Copy Plan version'.This stet is getting failed quite frequently. I just repeat it and the error is getting solved. I just wanted to know that is there any permanent solution for that. We cant afford to getting it failed that frequently.
I dont have any idea about this step. Can you please provide me information about this step and a possible remedy aw well.
The error messaage is :
Selection accesses data that is currently locked; user     
Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE.
Please suggest.
Regards
sunny

This is due to "Selection accesses data that is currently locked; user" , there is another process from another process chain which locked the object at the same time frame , so due to that this step is failing
you can increase waittime 30mins(example)before this Step Copy Plan version executes in the process chain.
OR, change the schedule time for this process chain

  • Any ideas on this plan for a process chain?

    Hi,
    I have 6 ODSes. I load these on a daily basis with 6 different flat files. ODS1, ODS2 and ODS3 needs to be loaded first before ODS4, ODS5, ODS6.
    Once all six ODSes are loaded, they are then aggregated based on some two key fields to and loaded into a cube. Npw I want to automate the process.
    Can you please check if my plan for the process chain is right:
    1. Start Process:   
    direct Scheduling
    Change Selections:
    Start date & Time
    Period Jobs: check
    Periodic Values: Daily
    Restrictions: Always execute job
    2. Indexes:(this flows into the first 3 ODSes)
    Delete indexes
    3. Load Data:
    Load Data ODS1 
    Load Data ODS2
    Load Data ODS3
    4. Activate ODS1
    5. Activate ODS2
    6. Activate ODS3
    (? What do I setup here so that the following will be loaded only if ODS1, ODS2 and ODS3 are successful)
    7.Load Data
    Load Data ODS4
    Load Data ODS5
    Load Data ODS6
    8.Delete Indexes
    9. Load Data
    Load data from ODS1, ODS2, ODS3, ODS4, ODS5, ODS6 to the CUBE
    10.Activate Cube (?Needs to activate cube? Is there a process type like that of activate ODS)
    11. Create Index  (Hm, will the Delete and create indexes in this plan take apply to both ODS and Cube)
    Thanks, I will lovr to get hint from you. How do I factor in PSA? i.e. To always go to PSA then to ODS and Cube?

    Hi,
      1.Start the process.(as per your requirement)
      2. Load the data to ODS in parallel (ODS1 , ODS2 & ODS 3)
      3. Activate the three ODS , with separate ODS activation process type.
      4.Put an AND condition
      5. load data to ODS4 ,5 and 6
      6. Activate ods4 ,5, & 6.
      7. delete index for cube
      8. load different data from ods to cube
    9. create index.
                    start
    load ODS1  -- Load oDS2 -- Load ods 3
    Activate ODS1 - Activate oDS2 - Activate ODS3
                     AND (process)
    Load oDS4      load ods5    load ODS 6
    Activate oDS4  Activate ODS5  Activate ODS 6
                     AND
              Delete the index
               Load data from different ODS to cube
                Create Index
       there is no concept of activating the cube .. it is only applicable to ods.

    Suraj Sir,
    I am Slowly Learning from People you who knows the Subject very well, I tried to tell you what I did in My system,
    in My Planning methods I have these Following,
    Enter planning data
    Display planning data
    Copy
    Using Copy Function in Planning method I "create parameter set" , I see Settings, Value Fields, I gave 1 to 12 periods for 2009 and version as "0" in Reference Data,and saved it, I do see this new Planning method under Copy ,
    Later in The main Planning Level with the 2009 Planning package , I did change parameter Version "1 " and executed  (I don't see new Planning method Under Enter Planning Data), the usual "Quantity". But Shows nothing Just Blank Columns with Field names .
    I tried in Test mode and Update mode, with "0" version and "1" version in the  Main Planning Package (I do have values in version "0", Planning package for 2009 which I want to Copy to version "1" --->2009)
    I think you forgot to insert HELP link in your reply

  • IP: Error in packaged planning sequence in process chain

    Hi all,
    We run a planning sequence from within a process chain. As the data transferred are quite a lot, we have packaged with setting "automatically" and with 30 packages to be built. Now the function returned (it ran already successfully before!) an error message stating:
    Master cannot read return value from subprocess 2
    and another error:
    An error occurred with the maintenance of the query directory.
    Do you have any idea what this could be?
    Many thanks in advance,
    Andreas

    Hi Rakesh,
             It's a BASIS problem. After transport during process chain activation, the background user tries to logon with the password and if it fails the chain will not be activated. The contents will be transported though. You can manually activate the chain. You can request the Basis guys to fix this.

    Thanks
    Kishore

    create a new planning package with characteristic Version = 2
    (if you have defined verison 1 also on the planning level, you should create a new planning level)
    then create a planning method under Copy with version 0 as source...

  • 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?
    regards

    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.

  • Error in Transport of ABAP Program in Process Chain

    Hi All,
    I am trying to transport a process chain that contains ABAP programs.
    I have transported the programs along with the other process chain variants
    There is an error that occurs when I transport - "Errors occurred during post-handling RS_AFTER_IMPORT for EVEN L" 
    The Process chain in the target system is fine except that I am not able to see the ABAP programs in the process chain.
    I am not able to locate the error.
    Your help will be appreciated
    Thanks,
    Shruti

    If a Process Variant (in this case; 'ABAP Program with success/failed' ) does not exist in the succeeding systems, it is very likely that this Process Variant has been created as a customized variant by a user. Unless the user transports this variant to further systems, this variant cannot be used in the process chain.
    Therefore it is better to use general Process Variants (those delivered by SAP) in the process chains. The General Variant here can be 'ABAP Program'.

  • Step by Step method to create a process chain in SAP BI

    HI There,
    I'm new to SAP BI, can anyone pleas explain me why we need to use Process Chains in a simpler way?
    Also it would be great if someone can give me step by step description for creating process chain. I've seen couple of PDF files but they confusing me more then clearing my doubts. Appreciate your time and thanks in advance.

    Edited by: Pravender on May 4, 2011 3:57 PM

    Hi Vandana,
    1.Go to RSPC tcode ->(F5) create ->It will ask for process chain name ->then it will ask for start variant
    2.If you have no start variant pre created then create new one (at right side there will be a paper symbol for that ).Every process chain has one and only one start variant that is to set scheduling option etc .When you will create a new one you will go to a screen where you have scheduling option .
    3.a) Direct scheduling ->to start execution immediately 
       b) start using meta chain or API ->chains which run at specific time (day ,month etc or after some specific event ). save your settings and go back .click check symbol for final creation of start variant.
    4.Now at left screen you  have chain symbol (process types) .when you will click on that you will have all the process lists .
    5.You can select process as per your requirement and connect different processes together.Each process is a different event (ex : load DTP ,Infopackage ,ABAP program ,AND ,Interrupt ).You cna do detailed study for that .
    6.After adding all processes activate (ctrl+F3) and execute .
    7.After that you can check logs (shift+F1) .you can see todays log ,yesterday and today etc .For details of every process execution right click on process and see display variant .
    Hope this will be helpful for basic startup.you can further read thoroughly on each process .

    Jaya

  • Graphical version of Process Chain Maintenance

    Hi Expert,
    My BW is running on 730 SAPKW73003, BI CONT 735 SAPK-73503INBICONT
    when i run RSPC, it is showing RSA1 menu with extra process chain menu on the right.
    Where is the old version of graphical representation of RSPC? Anyway i could get it back?
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    MJ

    Hi MJ,
    This is new feature (standard) in BW 7.3 version. even if u try to get into RSPC, It will redirect you to RSA1.
    RSPC is like embedded in RSA1 and u can use full screen (Shift+F11) to view any particular process chain ( to avoid all other standard options of RSA1.)
    even RSPC1 will take you to same place(RSA1)

    Thanks,

    Hello,
    I am a new user. Using SAP BW 7. When I select planning view I would like to see a chain X in gray. How can I? I noticed that the natural number in grayed chains is 3 instead of 0: perhaps this is the procedure? I have to change the natural number?

  • Error related to scheduling of dependencies in process chain

    Hi gurus,
    2 process chain is dependent on the 1 process chain,unfortunately i was scheduled the 2 pc before the end of 1 pc.
    after a while i was realiased that 1 pc was still running,immediately i killed the job related to 2 pc(that job is  DELETE INDEXES )
    finally i was rescheduled the 2 process chain after the completion of 1 process chain.
    1 & 2 are finished successfully.
    thx
    mahi  &naren
    because of this ,is there any problem to database (production server )

    Mahesh,
       every body will cancel jobs. It won't problem. may be you are thinking in that process is DELETE INDEXES point of view, this won't be problem. create the indexes again. after the load check DB02 for missing indexes.
    check the data consistency for the load(no duplicate recrods).
    All the best.
