Custom Process Types not working in SAP BPC 10.0

Hi Experts,
We have migrated from SAP BPC 7.5 NW to SAP BPC 10.0 NW.
We have three Custom Process Types created in BPC 7.5NW using the super class CL_UJD_SIMPLE_ACTOR as super class.
It has been made Obsolete and Final class in BPC 10.0NW and the Custom Process types are not running as expected.
Can you please suggest if there is any alternative for using the existing custom process types? Or do we have any alternative for creating custom process types?
*Note: We have tried replacing the superclass with CL_UJD_ACTOR instead of CL_UJD_SIMPLE_ACTOR but of no use.
Regards,
Balraj.

Hi Inl,
The statement looks fine, just confirm:
Your CATEGORY dimension is named CATEGORY? Is it really has property COMPARISOIN?
Can you show the screenshot of UJKT run of script?
What is your core BPC SP?

BI custom process type (ABAP OO Class): how to create a variant screen?

I created a custom process type in Netweaver 2004s (business intelligence) which in essence is nothing but an Abap class that implements certain interfaces. What I am now struggling with is how to write the code for the "new variant" input screen.
My understanding is that the logic has to be implemented in the method IF_RSPC_MAINTAIN~MAINTAIN, but I am lacking detailed information.
Can someone give me an example with a variant screen that displays two radio buttons?
Thank you,
D.

It is a custom class that implements the following interfaces:
IF_RSPC_GET_VARIANT
IF_RSPC_MAINTAIN
IF_RSPC_EXECUTE
The interface I am struggling with is the first one (get variant). Any more insight on how this should be used would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

How to capture the process type for a particular application

In my application CRMD_BUS2000120 there are 3 process types namely incidents, zcomplaints and zrepair order. But all the 3 display the same description as New: Incidents . Since this is attached with the application name. How can i change the description according to the process type i select. If I select incidents the description should be Incident , if i select zcomplaints it should be zcomplaints. Can anyone guide me how to do this.
Thanks in Advance,
Anu

Hi Fred,
If you open any activities or opportunities, you can see the description if you select new button and click on the process type. It will be display Activities and below that New: Activity. Instead of always displaying the same description I want to override the description according to the process type. For me the application is not activity but Incident. Hope I am clear with the question.
Thanks,
Anu

Charateristic variable with Processing type "replacement path"

Hi all
I am using BI 7.0;
I have a characteristic ZPL_CNT in one dimensions of a Cube;
now i want to use the value of the ZPL_CNT as column in Query.
So i created a formula and a formula variable with replacement path of processing type:
setting:
i created a new formula "Calculated MBZ"
the formula variables is "ZMBZ" and inserted the variables into "Calculated MBZ"
Reference characteristic: ZPL_CNT
Processing type : Replacement path
Replace variable with: Attribute value
Attribute: characteristic Reference (constant 1)
But i find the value in Query incorrect
Can anyone help me solve this problem?
Thanks!

Hi Dragon,
Can you not drag and drop this characteristic directly in the columns...have I misunderstood something?
I think when you use replacement path in the formula variable , the fromula variable tries to find the reference characteristic value at each record level in the report and then replaces it with attribute value as defined and may be in your case as the characteristice is not defined in the row , it has problems to identify which value of the characteristic it has to replace.

Email Alert for Process Chain for ABAP Process Type

Hi BW Experts,
                         I created a process chain based on ABAP Process Type ( for Broadcasting rsrd_broadcast_starter). I want to add alert message for each ABAP process if it is failed. But I cant see any option showing Successfull or Error or Always when I select create message option on the process type. How ever I can see for other process chain which is loading data (Process Type is Info Package ) from SAP into BW.
                         Please some one tell me why it is not showing alert message for ABAP Process Type.
Thanks
Ganesh Reddy.
Edited by: Ganesh Reddy on Jul 13, 2009 10:16 PM

I dont have the exact answer for your question, But as a work around i can suggest you that.
If these ABAP programs are included in a chain and this local chain is a part of meta chain then you can create a message on the local chain.By right clicking on the local chain >Create Message>Success
                                                                                --->Failure
>Always
Hope this resolves the problem tempervorly.I will get back to you once i have
Or the permanent solution is
Its big and also easy method to perform, by this you will be able to get all the options for a ABAP Program also.If you have any questions please let me know.

What is the difference between Process Type TRIGGER AND CHAIN

What is the difference between these two process types. When I am looking process types, I want to provide information only about process chains and not individual steps of process chain. Looks like one can do using either.
Along the same line, I am looking at data from RSPCPROCESSLOG, no where this table has a column process chain id. So How od I find information about a process chain.
Thanks a lot,

A "Chain Process" can be a a step in a Process Chain as well. For Example: So you could have the following Process Chain:
Process Chain Example
Step 1. TRIGGER (Execute Daily at 4am)
Step 2. DTP_LOAD Execute DSO Load
Step 3. DTP_LOAD Execute InfoCube Load
Step 4. CHAIN Execute Master Data Process Chain
I believe the "Master Chain" is called a "MetaChain" since it controls the start of another Process Chain.
Hope that helps...

Table for Process type with BP Number of sold to party

Hi Friends,
Please share me Table name where i'll get the Process Type (Transaction Type) and Sold to Party Number or BP Guid of the transaction.
I want to create Target group for BP's who are involve in Particular Transaction.
For infoset creation i have already tried Table CRMD_ORDERADM_H and CRMD_ORDER_INDEX but not able to join exact conditions.
Regards,
DD's

HI frieds,
Thanks for u r support i have created Infosets using table CRMD_ORDERADM_H, CRMD_LINK & CRMD_PARTNER and, made joining link between them (Actually both Guids in CRMD_LINK and CRMD_PARTNER are not maching)
Next step is i have created Datasource using my infoest and created Attribute list for same.
After all this excercise i tried to Create target group for BP's who are involved in particular transaction(Process type) but in target group count come to ZERO !!!!!!!!! why this happening ???
Please understand my final expected output which is in bold

Inbound delivery creation in WM - mapping to process type 1011 in EWM

Hi All,
I am new to EWM and have to configure handling units for picking and putaway in EWM.
I am creating an inbound delivery w.r.t Purchase order in WM and passing it to EWM. During the warehouse order creation I am packing the materials in a packing material. however, the warehouse process type is 1010 and I want it to relflect 1011.
So I wanted to know how to configure the system either on the WM or the EWM side so that when the inbound delivery is received on the EWM side it maps it to process 1011.
Arup

Hi,
To put across my question more clearly here is where I am right now. I pass the delivery to the EWM side. There I pack the materials. There is a HU association with the packing material.
When I go to the screen with the follow on functions- warehouse task. Then when I choose the handling unit tab and click on the exectute button associated with the Whouse Req then there should be a Line item displaying the handling unit that was created in the previous step.
However this is not happening and when I click on the execute button the line item does not show up.
So I was wondering if there is some configuration that needs to be done to get the HU displayed?

LR3 "Extra Processing in Develop" Performance Problem

I have been investigating a specific LR3 performance problem. It may explain a small subset of the problems people have reported in the "Why is LR3 So Slow?" thread. I'm starting this thread to focus on this particular problem. I hope others will confirm/refute/refine my findings.
The Problem
In Develop, when I make an adjustment, normally the following happens: The CPU usage (as shown in Activity Monitor's bar graph) jumps to between 50 and 75% for all four cores, the updated image appears, and the CPU usage settles back down. This all happens in less than half a second. Note: this is with the image at the Fit size. However, sometimes I instead get the following after an adjustment: the CPU usage jumps to 50 to 75% for all four cores and the updated image appears as usual, however, instead of settling back down, the CPU usage jumps up to 90 to 100% for all cores and stays there for 3 to 5 seconds before settling down. Thus it appears that LR is doing some kind of "extra processing" since a lot of computation is happening AFTER the updated image has already appeared. I will refer to this problem as "EP". Obviously, when you are getting EP, editing in Develop becomes very balky.
Dependency on ratio between image size and displayed size
It appears that EP only happens when the displayed size of the image (in Fit zoom level and perhaps also Fill zoom level) is above a certain percentage of the actual image size (as currently cropped). Evidence: When editing full 21MP 5D2 images, I don't experience EP. If I crop the 5D2 image fairly significantly, then I can get EP. When editing 10MP images from my Canon S90, I usually get EP for landscape orientation pictures but not for portrait orientation pictures (since in Fit mode, landscape images display at a higher zoom level than portrait images). If I am getting EP, I can eliminate it by sufficiently reducing the size that LR is displaying the image by resizing the LR window smaller, opening additional panels (I normally edit with only the right panel open), displaying the toolbar, etc. It appears that EP is enabled when the displayed image is about 50% or larger w.r.t. the actual image (as currently cropped). For example, EP becomes enabled when a 3648 pixel wide S90 image is displayed at least 17 and 7/8 inches wide on my 100 ppi monitor (i.e. about 1787 pixels).
Dependency on HOW an adjustment is invoked
Even when the displayed image size is large enough w.r.t. the actual image size to enable EP, whether you get it on a given adjustment depends on how you invoke it:
- If you CLICK (i.e. press the mouse button down and quickly release it) on the track of one of the sliders (a technique I use often to make big jumps), EP will happen.
- If you press the mouse button down on a slider handle, drag it to a new position, and quickly release the mouse button), EP will happen
- If you press the mouse button down on a slider handle, drag it to a new position, but continue to hold the mouse button down until the displayed image is updated, EP does NOT happen (either before or after you then release the mouse button).
- If you highlight the numeric field at the end of a slider and use the arrow keys (possibly along with Shift) to increment or decrement the value, EP does NOT happen.
- EP will happen if you resize the LR window such that the displayed image size is above the threshold. (In fact, I determined the threshold by making a series of window width increases until I saw EP indicated by the CPU bar graphs.)
- EP can happen with local adjustment brush applications, but as with the sliders, it depends on HOW you perform the brush stroke. Single click and drags with immediate mouse release cause EP, drags with delayed mouse button release don't.
- Clicking an earlier History state causes EP
- More exploration could be done. For example, I haven't looked at Graduated Filter and Spot Removal adjustments.
My theory of what's happening
With LR2, my understanding is that in Develop mode when the displayed image is below 1:1 zoom level, after an adjustment is invoked, LR calculates the new version of the image to display using a fast, simplified algorithm that doesn't include the more computationally intensive adjustments like Sharpening and Noise Reduction (and perhaps works on a lower rez version of the image with multiple sensels binned together?). It appears that in conditions described above, LR3 calculates the initial, fast image update and then goes on to do the full update of the image, including the computationally intensive adjustments. Evidence: setting Sharpening Amount and Luminance and Color Noise Reduction to zero eliminates EP (or reduces the amount of time it takes to be barely noticeable). I'm not sure whether the displayed image is updated with the results of the extra processing. I think the answer is Yes since when I tried an adjustment of changing Sharpening Amount from 0 to 90, the initial update of the displayed image showed sharpening but after the EP, the displayed image was updated again to show somewhat different sharpening. Perhaps Adobe felt that it would be useful to see the more accurate version of the image when it is at or above 50% zoom. Maybe the UI is supposed to cancel the EP if you start to make another adjustment before it has completed but the canceling doesn't happen unless you invoke the adjustment in one of the ways described above that doesn't cause EP.
Misc
- EP doesn't seem to happen for Process 2003
- As others have mentioned, I'm surprised that LR (both version 2 and 3) in 64bit mode doesn't use more available RAM. I don't think I've seen LR go above 4GB of virtual memory or above 3GB "Real Memory" (as reported by Activity Monitor) even though I have several GB free.
- It should be obvious from the above that if you experience EP, there are workarounds: reduce the size of the displayed image (e.g. by window resizing), invoke adjustments in ways that don't cause EP, turn off Sharpening and Noise Reduction until the end of editing an image.
System specs
First generation Intel Mac Pro with two dual-core CPUs at 2.66 Ghz
OS 10.5.8
21GB RAM
ACR cache on volume striped across 3 internal SATA drives
LR catalog and RAWs on an internal SATA drive
30" HP LP3065 monitor (2560 pixels wide)
NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT

I'm impressed by your thorough analysis.
Clearly, the programmers haven't figured out the best way to do intelligent caching and/or parallel rendering at a reduced size yet.
In my experience reducing the settings in the "Details" panel doesn't help.
What really bugs me is that the lag (or increasing lack of interactiveness) depends on the number of adjustments one has made.
This shouldn't be the case. If a cache is produced then every further adjustment should only cost the effort for that latest adjustment and not include adjustments before it. There are things that stand in the way of straightforward edit applications:
If you work below 1:1 preview, adjustments have to be shown in a reduced form. If you don't have a way to faithfully mimic the adjustments on the reduced size, you have to do them on the original image and then scale down. That's expensive.
To the best of my knowledge LR uses a fixed image pipeline. Hence, independently of the order in which you apply edits, they are always performed in the same fixed order. Say all spot removal operations are done first. If you have a lot of adjustment brush edits and then add a spot removal operation, it means that all the adjustment brush operations have to be replayed each time you do a little adjustment on your spot removal edit.
I believe what you are seeing is mostly related to 1.
I also believe that the way LR currently handles a moderate number of edits is unacceptable and incompatible with the notion that it is usable in a commercial setting for more than trivial edits. I suspect there is something else going on. If everyone saw the deterioration in performance after a number of edits that I see, I don't think LR would be as accepted as it is. Having said that, I've read that the problem of repeated applications of the adjustment brush slowing LR down has existed for a long time. I truly hope that this doesn't mean we'll have to live for it for the foreseeable future.
There are two ways I can see how 2. should be addressed:
combine the effects of a set of operations into one bitmap operation. Instead of replaying all adjustment brush strokes one after the other (speedwise it feels like this is happening), compute a single bitmap operation that combines all effects.
give up the idea that there is an image pipeline with a fixed execution order.
Some might argue that the second point is at odds with the whole idea of parametric editing, but I dispute that. Either edit operations are commutable in which case the order is immaterial, or they are not. If they are not, the user applies the edits in a way as he/she sees fit and will thus compensate for any effect of a changed ordering.
N.B., currently the doctrine of "fixed ordering of edit applications" results in the effect that even if you convert an image into B&W all your adjustment brush edits that applied colour tints will still show through. Reasoning: The user should be able to locally tint a B&W image. I agree with the latter but this could be achieved by only applying those tinting brush strokes that were created after the B&W conversion. All the ones that happened before should only be used to obtain the correct luminance values for the B&W conversion but obviously they shouldn't cause tinted areas.
The above example demonstrates to me that users naturally expect operations to occurr in the order they have been introduced, not in a fixed predefined order. If that principle were followed, I see no reason why the speed of a single edit should depend on the number of edits that were done to the image before.
I hope the programmers can (and the management wants to) address the performance issues. While I find LR usable for pretty modest edits, in no way the performance on my system approaches that would I would expect from an industrial strenght application.
P.S.: Your message reminded me of the following: When I experience serious lag with LR showing the strokes I make with an adjustment brush, it helps to pause a moment after the first click before one starts moving. This allows LR to catch up and then one can see the effect of the application pretty much interactively. Otherwise, there is terrible lag and the feedback where you have brushed an effect comes way too late.

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?

How to Send an Email to Outlook using process type in RSPC?

Hi,
How to Send an Email to Outlook using process type in RSPC?
We created lot of process variants, actually we want to send an mail to users if the DP Background job was succesfully finished.
Actually i tried with create message its not happening...
Plz let me know .. its urgent ...
Regards,
Satish

Hello Satish,
If you want to send a friendly message to your users, then you can do this by building an ABAP program that calls function module SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 . You can then insert this ABAP program in your process chain (using the ABAP program process type) or as a second step in your background job. With this technique, you can send an email to SAP users, or to external users (e..g Outlook email addresses)
Here's a sample ABAP code:
data: ls_docdata type SODOCCHGI1,
        lt_objcont type table of solisti1,
        lt_receivers type table of somlreci1,
        ls_objcont type solisti1,
        ls_receivers type somlreci1,
        ls_user type syuname.
* Fill these variables with subject and msg lines that you need.
data: MAIL_SUBJECT     TYPE STRING,
MSG_LINE1     TYPE STRING,
MSG_LINE2     TYPE STRING,
MSG_LINE3     TYPE STRING,
MSG_LINE4     TYPE STRING,
MSG_LINE5     TYPE STRING.
ls_docdata-obj_descr = mail_subject.
ls_objcont-line = msg_line1.
append ls_objcont to lt_objcont.
ls_objcont-line = msg_line2.
append ls_objcont to lt_objcont.
ls_objcont-line = msg_line3.
append ls_objcont to lt_objcont.
ls_objcont-line = msg_line4.
append ls_objcont to lt_objcont.
ls_objcont-line = msg_line5.
append ls_objcont to lt_objcont.
* t_userlist contains the list of users to whom th email will be sent.
loop at t_userlist into ls_user.
    ls_receivers-receiver = ls_user.
"Change the type here if email is for outlook users, See documentation
" of function module in SE37
    ls_receivers-rec_type = 'B'.
    ls_receivers-express = 'X'.
    append ls_receivers to lt_receivers.
endloop.
CALL FUNCTION 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'
    EXPORTING
      document_data                   = ls_docdata
    tables
     OBJECT_CONTENT                   = lt_objcont
     receivers                        = lt_receivers
   EXCEPTIONS
     TOO_MANY_RECEIVERS               = 1
     DOCUMENT_NOT_SENT                = 2
     DOCUMENT_TYPE_NOT_EXIST          = 3
     OPERATION_NO_AUTHORIZATION       = 4
     PARAMETER_ERROR                  = 5
     X_ERROR                          = 6
     ENQUEUE_ERROR                    = 7
     OTHERS                           = 8
You can test out the function module first in SE37 (just put the name of the FM and click execute). Testing it in SE37 will help you get your parameters right.
Hope this helps.

Urgent: ABAP Custom Process Types

Hi Gurus,
I have created a Custom Process Type for ABAP program which returns status (Success or Failure).
I followed the below procedure to create a custom ABAP process type.
In RSPC, I went to Settings -> Maintain process types
I selected the ABAP process type and then selected the EDIT -> COPY AS and then in the process chain configuration screen, I gave a new name to the process type, changed the POSSIBLE EVENTS settings to "2 process ends "successful" or "failure" and saved the settings to confirm changes.
Now I can see the new process type for ABAP program which returns the success or failure for the successors.
Now, my question is, where do i write the logic for ABAP program ? how does the ABAP program returns the success or failure. Do I have to change the code in the method IF_RSPC_EXECUTE~EXECUTE to return success or failure. Please make me clear where I can write the code? For example in my ABAP program, I am searching a table to find a specific value. If the value is not found, then the ABAP process type should return failure, if found should return success. How can I do this?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,

To trigger a process chain from an external program you can use the function:
RSPC_API_CHAIN_START
you need only to know the Chain ID and pass it in import parameter.
Here an example:
select-options v_time for sy-uzeit.
parameter: chain type RSPC_CHAIN.
check sy-uzeit in v_time.
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPC_API_CHAIN_START'
EXPORTING
    i_chain             = chain
I_T_VARIABLES       =
I_SYNCHRONOUS       =
I_SIMULATE          =
I_NOPLAN            =
IMPORTING
E_LOGID             =
EXCEPTIONS
FAILED              = 1
OTHERS              = 2
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
        WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

Process Type - Delete overlapping requests from an Info Cube

I have read many threads on this topic, still have some questions. To give you background, I will be doing delta load (delta process chain). But before delta, I want to do setup initialization (init process chain). I want to use this process type in my init process chain to delete all data in my cube loaded from a specific ods. I cannot use delete all contents process type because many odss feed the same cube.
1.     Do you put this process type after Load Data or before Load Data. I have seen both cases in SDN forums.
2.     Variant of this process type is an info package. Does this info package have to be same as in load data step or it can be different.
3.     I want to delete all data in cube which was loaded from my ods. Term overlapping is confusing to me. Will this process type delete all data or not.
Tanks in advance.

Yes, you can do that. Goto RSPC - under process types Load Process and Post Processing, you will see DELETE OVERLAP REQUESTS FROM INFOCUBE option is there.
Select the proper check boxes like same sourcesystem, same datasource etc...
If it is one time deletion, why not do that manually?
Also check: How to delete most recent request in a Cube by using process chain
Hope it helps..
