How to delete masterdata via process-chain

Hi Specialists,
I need to delete masterdata which is not used in any cube/osd on a daily base.
But I cannot find a possibility to do that via the process-chain. There seems only to
be the option to delete the content of cubes and ods-object, but not of info-objects.
Could you please gimme some hint?!
Best regards,
Marco

Use function module RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA in a ABAP program.. then schedule it in process chain..

Giving points is another way to say thanks )

Delete Infocube via process chain V RSA1

When deleting the contents of an Infocube through RSA1 you get a choice of deleting Dimensions or Dimensions and Facts. When you are creating a process chain and you use the object Del;ete contents, what does it use as default Delete dims, or delete dims and facts?

Hi Dominic,
In the process chain, goto the deletion process step.
Right mouse click and select Display Variant.
Here you can see a check box and "Also Delete All Dimention Table Contents".
Based on whether this check box is ticked or un-ticked, you can make out what it does.
I hope this answers your question.

Delete Initialization using Process Chain

Hi Experts,
How to delete initialization using process chain? Additional question, why does our DTP couldn't get any data from PSA? We just transfer our DTP to other process chain and left its associated infopackage from the original process chain but when we check our extraction, our DTP always gets zero (0) records. What do we need to put in our DTP settings? and infopackage and DTP should always be in the same process chain??
Thanks,
nips

Hi UserPV,
Thanks for your inputs!
Anyway, our InfoPackage in the other Process chain executed succesfully and has an extracted data. Now, our DTP can't get any data from the PSA where the extracted data of InfoPackage resides first. Is there any other way around to separate DTP and its associated infopackage in different process chains? Or those objects should be in the same process chain?
Another questions, how can we delete an initialization using a process chain? and is there a function module that can we use to remove the initialization request so that we could re-initialize a process?
Thanks,
nips

Delete older data via process chain

Business needs only data for the past 45 days at any given time and the data loads are daily basis via process chain.
so I would like to have a step in Process chain to delete any data older than 30 days from today's date , on a daily basis.
How can I do that in the Process chain?

Hi,
You can use a process type called Delete overlapping request from Infocube in process chain. To delete requests older than 30 days select Deletion selections and write ABAP routine under Request selection through routine using following template.
Routines for determining the old requests to be deleted after successfully loading a new request.
form compute_<InfoCube-Name>
tables l_t_request_to_delete structure rsreqdelstruc
using l_request like rsreqdone-rnr
changing p_subrc like sy-subrc.
*Insert Source Code to decide if requests should be deleted.
*All Requests in table l_t_request_to_delete will be deleted
*from Infocube <InfoCube-Name>.
*Add new requests if you want to delete more (from this cube).
*Remove requests you did not want to be deleted.
$$ begin of routine - insert your code only below this line-
     loop at l_t_request_to_delete.
     endloop.
     clear p_subrc.
$$ end of routine - insert your code only before this line-
ENDFORM.
hope it helps...

Raju

Deleting Master Data via Process Chain

I am in the midst of creating a process chain and am able to create process for deleting ODS Contents, but am not able to do the same for Master Data. Is this possible?

Firstly, why do you want to delete master data.
You cannot delete master if the same is used across other transaction and master ( attr )data.
You may use :
Prg - > RSDMD_DEL_BACKGROUND
FM - >RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_ DATA.
To my knwldge you cannot delete MD using process chains.
You can delete data in PSA periodically..is that you are looking for ?

Delete Selection using Process Chain

Hello all,
Does any one know how to create a selected deletion using a Process Chain for DSO and Cube objects?
Thanks
Paulo

Hi,
You can use transaction delete_facts to generate program for selective deletion and use the program in your PC to automate it.
You can also try program RSDRD_DELETE_FACTS as well for cubes.

Loading master data via process chain

hi experts,
I have to load data in infoObject via process chain, my infopackage has update mode as full update. Now my question is do I have to delete the previously added data from infoObject and then run this full update infopackage in process chain or system will only fetch the newly added records from source.
regards,
ray

You can not delete the data from master data once the transcational data is posted against the master data value. Attribute value can be deleted, but you can not delete the value of the main characteristics from master data table.
Moreover, you dont need to delete the data when loading master data. Master data always overwritten with the new reocrds.
As described, first load the full load and then on daily basis you can load the delta.
DO NOT FOGET TO SCHEDULE ATTRIBUTE CHANGE RUN to activate the newly loaded data into master data.
Make sure that your master data is not enhanced, otherwise any change in the enhanced field will not generate delta record. If this is the case, then load in full mode everyday.

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?

Explain: how to include Infospoke in Process Chain where destination is DB

Explain: how to include Infospoke in Process Chain where destination is local machine database [NOT Flatfile]

Hi vijay,
First you create an Infospoke with destination as a DB table in your local BI or BW Machine. Now add this infospoke by going through below steps.
1. Call up the process chain maintenance. Choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Process Chain Maintenance from the Administrator Workbench toolbar. The Process Chain Maintenance Planning View screen appears.
2. In the left-hand screen area of the required This graphic is explained in the accompanying text display component, navigate to the process chain in which you want to insert your InfoSpoke. Double-click to select it. The system displays the process chain plan view in the right-hand side of the screen.
If no suitable process chain is available, you need to create a new process chain. You can find additional information under Creating a Process Chain.
3. To insert a process for extraction by means of an InfoSpoke, choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Process Types in the left-hand area of the screen. The system now displays the process categories available.
4.In the process category Loading Process and Post Processing, choose the application process type This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Data Export into External Systems.
5.Insert the Data Export into External Systems application type with Drag&Drop into the process chain. The dialog box for inserting a process variant appears.
6.In the Process Variant field, enter the name of the InfoSpoke that you want to include in the process chain, or select it by means of the input help.
Once You have added the infospoke you have to write a program which will fetch the database table that you filled and transfer the data fetched to other legacy system with the help of XI System
