Execute process chain before reading is disabled even if BW objects active

Hi,
This is also posted on BoB [http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?p=763342#763342].
I have followed the step described in [http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/ReadingSAPBW].
- I have my RFC defined and the RFC server is up and running in Data Servi ces Management Console
- I have a datastore with an Open Hub Tables defined
- I have a dataflow with the Hub Table as a source.
Unfortunately, the option Execute process chain before reading is disabled even though all the BW objects are active, as specifically mentioned in [http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/ReadingfromanOpenHub+Destination].
Is there any other reasons why would this option be unavailable?
Thanks
Isabelle
Edited by: Isabelle Thore on Oct 13, 2010 5:11 AM

the option will be disable if there is no process chain for the Open Hub, select the Open Hub Destination in the datastore right click and open properties, in the properties windows select attributes, do you see a Attribute named ProcessChain0, if yes do you see a value for this parameter ?
in there is a process chain for the Open Hub, try reimporting the Open Hub Destination again and see this attribute is set

Program to execute Process Chains in APO

I'm trying to find a program in APO that can execute Process Chains. Is there any standard program in APO that enables to execute Process Chain? or does a custom program need to be created?

Hello Jaroslav,
A process chain can run on it's own without an external ABAP program triggering it. Here are some examples:
1) You can set your process chain to be triggered by SAP event. Create the event in SM62 and then use that in your chain. Then trigger the event using SM64 and your chain should run after that.
2) You can just schedule your chain to run on a specific date or in some periods.
If you really want to trigger your process chain using an ABAP program or planning book macro or whatever custom functionality, then you can use function module RSPC_API_CHAIN_START.
Hope this helps.

Is there any way to execute process chain from the portal?

Hello,
Is there any way to execute process chain from the portal? I dont want to link process chain with any of report. I want to have a button in some of portal folders. User presses the button and it executes the process chain.
I was thinking about to create a fake planning cube, aggregation level and planning function. I call FM within the Fox planning function that runs the process chain. But it should be done within the report.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi.
I want to have a button in some of portal folders
You mean that you want to use some link in EP ?

ABAP program to add in the process chain before the attribute change run

Hi
I need a ABAP program to add in the process chain before the attribute change run(process) to avoid the locks, can any one send me the program
Regards,
Satish

I am not sure of any standard program .... but you can write your own... should be a small one..
you can check if the table RSDMDENQ has entry for your InfoObject... if yes, then its locked.. if not.. its not locked

How to execute process chains using planning function

hi, i need to execute process chains from web. i know the steps to that needs to be followed for accomplishing the task.
1) RSPC_CHAIN_START ( function module) into which process chain has to be passed
2) create a planning function to invoke the said function module
3) create a function button on web and assign the planning function.
Now the thing is how to create the planning function in BPS. plz provide me a solution with steps. And how to pass the process chain into the function module and handle it.
Thnaks

Hi Anand
RSPC_CHAIN_START is the standard function module to run a process chain which i want use. Now, how to use the said FM in planning function to achive my task. Do i need to maintain any parameter in planning function inorder to execute the FM. If you know the solution plz explain in detail.
I am very new to BPS..bare me plz
Thank you

Process Chain status not becomeing green even if all loads are successful

Hi,
The porcess chain status is not becoming green even if all loads are successful. How can I make it GREEN.
One more doubt I have.
Suppose I have 6 processes in my process chain and the 3rd process failed. If I run the function module RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH will start loading from the beginging or from the failed process.
I wish to load from the failed process onwards..what should I do ??
Kindly give the details.
Bill

Using that FM.. u will be providing the Instance and Variant of the failed process.. and hence the reload will start from the failed process but not the entire chain...
In general the process status shud finish then or based on the link combination the change from one process to other will happen...
try to maintain a wait time between the process atleast 2 to 4 secs..
thanks
hope this helps..

Execute process chain step based on value in a custom table

HI,
I have a requirement where i need to execute a process chain step based in the value of a field in a custom table.
e.g. If ztable-zflag = 'X' then execute next step else stop.
I am trying to use the decision between multiple alternatives process type, but i guess we can only use formulas in it.
Also, i created a custom method and called it through the badi RSAR_CONNECTOR, but the same isnt working as expected.
Would appreciate inputs from the experts.

Hi,
Thank you for your response.
I followed exactly what is written in the document. But when I execute the process chain with the Decision between Multiple Alternatives process type, it fails with an exception message.
Below is what I have done:
Below is the code that I entered in the method (Please note that ZPC_CONTROL is the table from which I need to check the value. This table contains 2 fields: Process Chain Name and Flag. My requirement is that when a particular process chain has the flag checked, then the process chain should move ahead):
Below is the GET method:
Finally, here is the formula that I have written in the Decision Between Multiple Alternatives process type:
And the event is Option 2 (which I assume will move the process chain forward if the flag is checked for the process chain ‘TEMP_TEST’)
Please note that the flag for process chain ‘TEMP_TEST’ is checked in the table ZPC_CONTROL.
Below is the error in the process chain:
Please let me know where am I going wrong here. Appreciate your help.

Executed process chain in 10.0NW

Hi all,
Is there a way of seeing how the variables of a process inside a process chain are filled when executed? I MS version, when adding "Debug(ON)", the executed package is leaved in webfolder with all the variables filled. It is very useful for debugging porpuses
do you know abaout other strategy for debugging process chains in NW?
Thanks in advance

Hi Vadim,
I am just trying to adapt the standard copy process chain to my client requeriments. But my question was more about if there is a way for debugging process chains like in MS version with "Debug(ON)" sentence. And if not, at least how to check how the variables in a process chain is filled during execution.
Thank you.

Job priorities in executing process chains

Hello,
I am trying to execute a process chain and when I try to schedule it (F8), it gives 3 priority options: Job higher priority A, Job higher priority B and Standard priority C. What is the difference between them?
Thanks,
Sanjeev

Hello,
Its the Classification of background jobs according to priority and job category.
A: Jobs with high priority whose execution is absolutely necessary for further processing. Jobs of the class A are always processed before jobs of other classes.
B: Jobs that should be run in regular intervals, for example, job
transferring performance statistics. Jobs of the class B are processed before jobs of the class C.
C: Jobs that neither fit into class A nor in class B and that do not require a higher priority. Class C is the standard class.
Thanks

How to delete Init flag in a process chain, before processing the init

Hi,
At the end of the week i need to re-execute the init request from ODS1 to ODS2.
Therefore, i have to delete the init flag first and the requests in the CUBE1, everything automatically in the process chain.
The schedule must be as follow :
1. Delete init flag on ODS1
2. Delete all request from ODS1 in the CUBE1
3. Load an regular INIT request from ODS1 to CUBE1.
Notes :
I cannont clear all the CUBE1 content, as i have other datasource than ODS1.
CUBE1 is the only one data-target of ODS1.
Any suggestion, as there is no process in the process chain to "Delete Init Flag".
Best regards,
Ludovic

Error while Executing Process chains

Hi All,
Initially i have created infopack with full load and Executed it manually, later i have changed same infopack to Delta load and kept in Process chains, when i execute the Process chains, the start Process have get triggred, but my Process stops at load data.when i have check the log file it is showing the Below Message:
"Message_Type_x" " "
"CL_RSSM_LOADING===============CP" or "CL_RSSM_LOADING===============CM005"
In Sm37 it is showing
BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER is Finished
BI_PROCESS_LOADING is Cancled
Please help meto find out what might be the cause of this Error.
Note: The infopackage will get data from Generic data Source.
when i run the Process chains, the request is not going to R/3 Side.
Thanks and regards,
santosh.

Hi Santosh,
Go through this below note.
Note 852443 - Dump in include LRSSMU36/RSSM_OLTPSOURCE_SELECTIONS.
If Init is successfull then you can manually try the delta and check it.
Hope this helps

Execute process chain in BI out of an planning function

Hello all,
is there a way to execute a process chain in BI out of a planning function, e.g. FOX?
We are using BI 7.0. Any help would be fantastic.
Best regards,
Stefan from Munich/Germany

Hi Stefanos,
you could use a planning function to call a function which starts the process chain. The planning function could be a customer planning function type. Make shure that you tick the without blocks tickbox. Otherwise it may be possible that the execution of the process chain is done several times.

Transaction to execute Process Chain

Hi experts;
I want to create a transaction to execute a process chain.
Is this possible?
I create one new transaction in SE93 and assign the transaction RSPC but it gives a list of all the process chain that exists.
Can any one help me?
Thanks in advance
Ricardo

Hi;
Im sorry the late reply but the Project stop for a couple of months. It now restarted like this topic. The replies that I got were useful to have one idea of what should be (so point were assign).
Due to my limited know how in Abap I choose the first option.
However I have some questions:
First) When I execute the process chain there are 2 jobs: BI_PROCESS_ATTRIBCHAN and BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER. They both uses the same program (RSPROCESS) but the variants are different (&0000000003463 for the first and &0000000003464 for the second). So witch should I use?
Second) In SE93 Im not sure witch option should I use it.
If I choose Program and selection screen I can assign the program, the screen (300) but the system doesnt recognize the start variant (the two I mentioned above).
If I choose Transaction with variant I can assign the transaction (RSPC) but the system doesnt recognize the start variant (the two I mentioned above) again.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance?
Ricardo

well,
there are 3 meta chain, which runs at 3 different time ( fixed , like 1st run at 8:00 am, 2nd on 6 pm and 3rd on midnite ) and all three meta chains are the same, these meta chain has this pc, which i m working on. and thats y i need to put discision , bcoz for all 3 times there are 3 diff. DTP has to execute.
so, in my descision i am giving half an hour time interval ( 8:00 am to 9:00 am) , (6pm to 7pm ) and ( midnite to 1 am)
so, depending upon the time , when the meta chain gets executed , from my PC the only on DTP gets executes. and other 2 gets fails. same way at 6 pm when once again meta chain gets executed and when it comes to my PC my 2nd descision gets setisfies and execute 2nd DTP with option 2. here option 1 and 3 dont work...and so on
also , i have mention following formula in my descision
option 1 --> Local Time >= '14:10:00' AND Local Time <= '14:55:00'
option 2---> Local Time >= '18:05:00' AND Local Time <= '18:20:00'
option 3 ---> Local Time >= '20:00:00' AND Local Time <= '20:30:00'
see, these gives you some more information..
thanks
