HFM Process Control and Process Flow History

Hi,
When I review the Process Flow History for top parent members of the consolidation, the POV shows <Scenario> <Year> <Period> <Entity> <Entity Currency>. For all other applications and entities, the <Entity Currency> member shows but I've built a new application and the <Entity Currency> shows as "EUR Total" (EUR is one of the currencies) except that EUR is not the default currency of application or the entity's value. Could anyone explain to me why it would show that way or where it could be coming from?
I'm using HFM v11.1.1.3.
Thanks in advance.

did you add new metadata?

About process control and fork (in workflow)

what is process control and fork (in workflow)?

Hello Kumar,
Process control is to control the workflow process like you can complete the workflow, make a step obsolete, cancel the workflow, etc.
Fork is something that will give you more than one branch. The fork step gets completed only when the mentioned number of branches are completed. For example you have a requirement for approval and there are 3 approvers and the requirement is such that atleast 2 approvers should approve the request then you will go for a fork of 3 branch with minimum 2 for completion.

Are GRC Access Control, Process Control and Risk Management separate?

Are these 3 different modules that you have to purchase separately or are they included in one suite?

Hi Anne,
If you are refering to GRC Access Controls 5.3, Process Control 3.0 and Risk Management 3.0 - All 3 are separate.
A new version of GRC 10.0 has been launched which is currently in ramp up. This has all the above 3 in one suite.

Process control and clustering

the document says process control is recommended within a domain. my question how does this work if the domain is clustered. The doc says process control is RMI based. Does that mean it will auto load balance using RMI clustering ? or it will always use only the local server ?

Process control is to control the workflow process like you can complete the workflow, make a step obsolete, cancel the workflow, etc.

Process Controlled Workflow - Process Schemas

Hi
I am configuring Process Controlled Workflow in SRM 7.0 for shopping carts. As per one of the guidance documents, I activated the BC Sets for the shopping cart in order to pull in all the component parts. As none of the three standard Process Schemas created meet my requirements I am going to create my own Schema. Please could someone explain to me how I can ensure my schema will get activated, and not say - /SAPSRM/C_SC_600_001_SP04?
Many Thanks
Claire

Hi,
You can create custom schema definition. If you need only 1 schema, you can use constant type BRF expression.
1. Create BRF event and Expression in transaction BRF
    BRF Event (ZEVALUATION1)
    BRF Expression (ZEXP1) = Constant Schema name (ZSCHEMA1)
2. Link the event and expression
3. Customize Define Process Level
    Process Schema Evaluation = BRF Event (ZEVALUATION1)
                                                 - linked to BRF Expression (ZEXP1) = Constant Schema name (ZSCHEMA1)
    Process Schema Definition (ZSCHEMA1)
      - based on your requirements

Process chain AND process

Hi,
I have a process chain that has two parallel processes of loading DSO and Infocube data. There are two infopackages on one side and two on the other side. The two processes are connected with and AND process at the end and after that there is a datastore activation process.
When I executed the process chain, the infopackages on both sides started loading data. The two infopackages on the left side finished first while the second infopackage on the right side had not finished yet when the AND process errored. I get the following message:
This AND process is not waiting for event RSPROCESS , parameter
47VKUORHMXQKR2AN73AVAR0C9
After the AND process I have a Datastore generation process and I want it to continue only when all infopackages have been loaded.
Why does the process stop at AND even though all infopackages have not finished yet?
thanks
Michalis

There was no error message in ST22 or SM37. There was very little info to go on. I just deleted the requests and run the process chain again and there's no error. However the process chain does fail at a later step.
Update Datastore Object Data (Further update)
I don't know what that further update is for. It was automatically selected in my Process chain when I selected the infopackage for the DSO.
There's a MESSAGE_TYPE_X error.

Process costs and process template

Hi,
Somebody may help me to clarify these problems:
1. Which exact costs are included in the so-called "Process costs" in PS component?
2. Is process template used to allocate only the overheads collected by costing sheet?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Aluri,
i think ur chain is loading parallelly then after successfully completing both in parallel with "AND" option then after it was loading sequential.
not worry if AND fails, AND option if for after successfull completion of parallel loads, it starts the next process, check r u getting REPEAT option?? then start the REPEAT, hope the chain runs successfull for remaining process.
check in table RSPCPROCESSLOG, RSPCLOGS table
execute the program /ssa/bwt
and logs tab in RSA1, analyze the process.
Hope the following links will give u a clear idea about process chains and clear ur doubts.

Process.getInputStream() and process.waitfor() block in web application

Hi folks,
i am really stuck with a problem which drives me mad.....
What i want:
I want to call the microsoft tool "handle" (see http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/ProcessesAndThreads/Handle.mspx) from within my web-application.
Handle is used to assure that no other process accesses a file i want to read in.
A simple test-main does the job perfectly:
public class TestIt {
   public static void main(String[] args){
      String pathToFileHandleTool = "C:\\tmp\\Handle\\handle.exe";
      String pathToFile = "C:\\tmp\\foo.txt";
      String expectedFileHandleSuccessOutput = "(.*)No matching handles found(.*)";
      System.out.println("pathToFileHandleTool:" + pathToFileHandleTool);
      System.out.println("pathToFile: " + pathToFile);
      System.out.println("expectedFileHandleSuccessOutput: " + expectedFileHandleSuccessOutput);
      ProcessBuilder builder = null;
      // check for os
      if(System.getProperty("os.name").matches("(.*)Windows(.*)")) {
         System.out.println("we are on windows..");
      } else {
         System.out.println("we are on linux..");
      builder = new ProcessBuilder( pathToFileHandleTool, pathToFile);
      Process process = null;
      String commandOutput = "";
      String line = null;
      BufferedReader bufferedReader = null;
      try {
         process = builder.start();
         // read command output
         bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()));
          while((line = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null) {
             commandOutput += line;
          System.out.println("commandoutput: " + commandOutput);
         // wait till process has finished
         process.waitFor();
      } catch (IOException e) {
         System.out.println(e.getMessage());
         e.printStackTrace();
      } catch (InterruptedException e) {
         System.out.println(e.getMessage());
         e.printStackTrace();      }
      // check output to assure that no process uses file
      if(commandOutput.matches(expectedFileHandleSuccessOutput))
         System.out.println("no other processes accesses file!");
      else
         System.out.println("one or more other processes access file!");
} So, as you see, a simple handle call looks like
handle foo.txtand the output - if no other process accesses the file - is:
Handle v3.2Copyright (C) 1997-2006 Mark RussinovichSysinternals - www.sysinternals.com
No matching handles found.
no other processes accesses file!(Wether the file exists or not doesnt matter to the program)
If some processes access the file the output looks like this:
commandoutput: Handle v3.2Copyright (C) 1997-2006 Mark RussinovichSysinternals - www.sysinternals.com
WinSCP3.exe        pid: 1108    1AC: C:\tmp\openSUSE-10.2-GM-i386-CD3.iso.filepart
one or more other processes access file!So far, so good.........but now ->
The problem:
If i know use the __exact__ same code (even the paths etc. hardcoded for debugging purposes) within my Servlet-Webapplication, it hangs here:
while((line = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null) {if i comment that part out the application hangs at:
process.waitFor();I am absolutely clueless what to do about this....
Has anybody an idea what causes this behaviour and how i can circumvent it?
Is this a windows problem?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.....
System information:
- OS: Windows 2000 Server
- Java 1.5
- Tomcat 5.5
More information / What i tried:
- No exception / error is thrown, the application simply hangs. Adding
builder.redirectErrorStream(true);had no effect on my logs.
- Tried other readers as well, no effect.
- replaced
while((line = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null)with
int iChar = 0;
              while((iChar = bufferedReader.read()) != -1) {No difference, now the application hangs at read() instead of readline()
- tried to call handle via
runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p = runtime.exec("C:\\tmp\\Handle\\handle C:\\tmp\\foo.txt");and
Process process = runtime.exec( "cmd", "/c","C:\\tmp\\Handle\\handle.exe C:\\tmp\\foo.txt");No difference.
- i thought that maybe for security reasons tomcat wont execute external programs, but a "nslookup www.google.de" within the application is executed
- The file permissions on handle.exe seem to be correct. The user under which tomcat runs is NT-AUTORIT-T/SYSTEM. If i take a look at handle.exe permission i notice that user "SYSTEM" has full access to the file
- I dont start tomcat with the "-security" option
- Confusingly enough, the same code works under linux with "lsof", so this does not seem to be a tomcat problem at all
Thx for any help!

Hi,
thx for the links, unfortanutely nothing worked........
What i tried:
1. Reading input and errorstream separately via a thread class called streamgobbler(from the link):
          String pathToFileHandleTool = "C:\\tmp\\Handle\\handle.exe";
          String pathToFile = "C:\\tmp\\foo.txt";
          String expectedFileHandleSuccessOutput = "(.*)No matching handles found(.*)";

          logger.debug("expectedFileHandleSuccessOutput: " + expectedFileHandleSuccessOutput);
          ProcessBuilder builder = new ProcessBuilder( pathToFileHandleTool, pathToFile);
          String commandOutput = "";
          try {
               logger.debug("trying to start builder....");
               Process process = builder.start();
               logger.debug("builder started!");
               logger.debug("trying to initialize error stream gobbler....");
               StreamGobbler errorGobbler = new StreamGobbler(process.getErrorStream(), "ERROR");
               logger.debug("error stream gobbler initialized!");
               logger.debug("trying to initialize output stream gobbler....");
               StreamGobbler outputGobbler = new StreamGobbler(process.getInputStream(), "OUTPUT");
               logger.debug("output stream gobbler initialized!");
               logger.debug("trying to start error stream gobbler....");
               errorGobbler.start();
               logger.debug("error stream gobbler started!");
               logger.debug("trying to start output stream gobbler....");
               outputGobbler.start();
               logger.debug("output stream gobbler started!");
               // wait till process has finished
               logger.debug("waiting for process to exit....");
               int exitVal = process.waitFor();
               logger.debug("process terminated!");
               logger.debug("exit value: " + exitVal);
          } catch (IOException e) {
               logger.debug(e.getMessage());
               logger.debug(e);
          } catch (InterruptedException e) {
               logger.debug(e.getMessage());
               logger.debug(e);
     class StreamGobbler extends Thread {
          InputStream is;
         String type;
         StreamGobbler(InputStream is, String type) {
             this.is = is;
             this.type = type;

                 String line=null;
                 logger.debug("trying to call readline() .....");
                 while ( (line = br.readline()) != null)
                     logger.debug(type + ">" + line);
             } catch (IOException ioe) {
                     ioe.printStackTrace();
     }Again, the application hangs at the "readline()":

                 int iChar = 0;
                 while ( (iChar = br.read()) != -1)
                     logger.debug(type + ">" + iChar);
             } catch (IOException ioe) {
                     ioe.printStackTrace();
     }Same result, application hangs at read()......
Then i tried a dirty workaround, but even that didnt suceed:
I wrote a simple batch-file:
C:\tmp\Handle\handle.exe C:\tmp\foo.txt > C:\tmp\handle_output.txtand tried to start it within my application with a simple:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\\tmp\\call_handle.bat");No process, no reading any streams, no whatever.....
Result:
A file C:\tmp\handle_output.txt exists but it is empty..........
Any more ideas?

Process Chains AND process error

Hello all,
I have process chain for weekly master data loading. In one step after loading master data we have AND process and there after Attribute Change Run process.
When I ran process chain the Master Data load process is successful ( upto that it is green in log view ) . After this process AND process is showing RED.
The display message is as follows:
This AND process is not waiting for event RSPROCESS , parameter
423HLT8HZUIQTNDHWZJFNPBRC
Please let me know if any one has SOLUTION to this. Thanks in advance.
Yours

HI SRM,
That means, The proess after AND is watining for one process, the same
process which ur process waiting is already using by some other process.
That means for one process two process chains are calling at a time.
So this process chain failed due to the process is running by other process
chain.
Now, after 10 or 30 min run again your process chain. if it runs successfully
then maintain the time gap between the two process chain which are using
the same process.
Hope the answers is suitable for u.
Thanks
Rajesh
