How to set delta load in process chain

hello all
The scenario is i created process chain for transaction data and all the infopackages are in initial load now I want to do delta,how to set delta in process chain,bcoz only the new records should load?
kindly anyone let me know.
regards
balaji

Hi Balaji,
In most projects thay dont have the "init" infopackages in the process chain. They have 2 infopackages for a load - One for init and the other for delta. Now that you have created the process chain what I suggested was to change the infopackage settings to delta load and change the description of the infopackage.
The other option would be to create a new infopackages for delta and include them in the chain replacing the "init" ones.
Bye

Delta loading and Process chain BI

Hi experts,
Two Issues.
1)As i am loading FI data into dso through a process chain which includes Start process>Delta infopackage(which gets data upto psa)>Delta dtp-->Datastore activation.
But infopackage is picking up deltas but DTP is picking up all the previous records plus deltas.
100 records -- 1st day throught Intialization of Delta with Data Transfer
2 delta records -- 2nd day
But DTP is picking up 102 Records on the 2nd Day, which means it is also picking the old records as well.
The DSO must have just 102 records but it is having 202 records.
2) A process chain in running daily as scheduled , but I rescheduled with new scheduling options without deactivating the Process chain.
My Question is
Will the Process chain run for the OLD and the New Schedule or
Is it going to run for new schedule or old one?
or
will I face any Problem because I did not deactivate and made changes to the Change.
Please help me in this matter.
Thanks in advance.
Bhadri.

First query:
I believe that u have used FUll update type DTP is instead of the Delta DTP.. Please cross check the Update mode of the DTP once.
To resolve this issue, delete the total content of the DSO as u have Init and delta loads in PSA. And then using the Delta DTP of the Process chain, load the data. It will extract the total cotent what ever is there in PSA, and later the same DTP will act as the Delta type and will pick the data from the New request of the PSA.
Second Query:
Its always suggested to deschedule the process chain before changing the schedule timings. When ever u do this type of scheduling, just check how many number of JObs available in Schedule mode, if u can see more than one, then delete the older one and keep the new one as it is.
But I always suggest you to deschedule the process chain and reschedule PC with the new timings and then activate the same.
Thanks

How to manage the "no data" loading in process chain

Hi,
I want to load some master data in delta mode with a process chain. The treatment works good except in one case.
If I have no data selected during the extraction ( cause the system doesn't find any data matching with the delta field ), the process chain appears in red as if some problems was encountered instead of giving a traffic light green.
How is it possible to manage this case of treatment as a normal treatment ?
Thanks for your help.

Marc,
in RSMO ,
Using Settings -> Evaluation of Requests ->
if no data is available in the system, the request
select Green (is Judged to be successful). this will cause the load to be successful if Zero records are fetched and the Process chain will not fail.
Cheers

Loading through Process Chains 2 Delta Loads and 1 Full Load (ODS to Cube).

Dear All,
I am loading through Process chains with 2 Delta Loads and 1 Full load from ODS to Cube in 3.5. Am in the development process.
My loading process is:
Start - 2 Delta Loads - 1 Full Load - ODS Activation - Delete Index - Further Update - Delete overlapping requests from infocube - Creating Index.
My question is:
When am loading for the first am getting some data and for the next load i should get as Zero as there is no data for the next load but am getting same no of records for the next load. May be it is taking data from full upload, i guess. Please, guide me.
Krishna.

Hi,
The reason you are getting the same no. of records is as you said (Full load), after running the delta you got all the changed records but after those two delta's again you have a full load step which will pick whole of the data all over again.
The reason you are getting same no. of records is:
1> You are running the chain for the first time.
2> You ran this delta ip's for the first time, as such while initializing these deltas you might have choosen "Initialization without data transfer", as such now when you ran these deltas for the first time they picked whole of the data.Running a full load after that will also pick the same no. of records too.
If the two delats you are talking are one after another then is say u got the data because of some changes, since you are loading for a single ods to a cube both your delta and full will pick same "For the first time " during data marting, for they have the same data source(ODS).
Hope fully this will serve your purpose and will be expedite.
Thax & Regards

How to do delta loading in BI?

Hai..
I sheduled the one job in the LBWE transaction. I deleted the contents of setup table and again filled the same and checked the data source in RSA3 and found data there. Then I replicated the data source in BI 7.0. After this thing How to perform delta loading in BI side.
As here we are using Infopackage for loading PSA alone.
1. <b>Where we do delta initialisation and delta load?</b>
2. <b>how the data is getting loaded in R/3 while doing delta update?</b>

Hi Methew,
After triggering V3 job from LBWE , go to Tcode RSA7 in r/3
You will find for your datasource some data packet are available in delta Queue.
Now you have to create a infopackage in BW for init
1)Go to left top of the infopackage click on Initialization of source system ( there should be no request) if you find any request delete it.
2)Click on update tab and select Initialization delta process.
3)Data selection would be in gray ( no selection)
4)Process can be any .
5)Select your data target.
6)Click on start button from schedule tab.
Once int is done create a new info package for delta .
1)Click on update tab and select delta updtes.
Hope this helps.

Delta and Full process chain for same master data target.

Hi Friends,
Can I do full update and delta update through process chain for same master data target and from same source ?
Regards
shekar reddy

Hi Sriram,
why you want to load full and delta for same master data object?
you can achieve this but make sure that you select repair full option for full load IP.
you have this option in scheduler in menu bar

How to do delta load after full load

Hi,
I did full loads for my Data target.
I have 15 requests on my Data target.
Now i want to do delta load.
Please help me how to do delta load even after full loads.
Advance thanks.
Regards,
Rafi

Hi,
change in my post!!!
after full load you can go for delta,but it is not viceversa
if you want to run delta
since you have done prior full loads,,do init without data transfer which will sets the init flag
now run delta
please also check is your datasource supports delta or not
try RSA6, datasource and display,
check if 'delta update' is marked
or table ROOSOURCE field DELTA

Hi,
Include 3 cubes in the Process chain.Multiprovider is a structure it will not contain data physically.while running the query it will fetch the data from 3 cubes that u loaded from Process chain and displayed in the report.....

Need help in triggering the Data stream load using process chain

Hi Guru's
is it possible to trigger a data stream load using process chain?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks
Indiran

Hi Indiran and welcome aboard!
Don't think this is possible. SAP BW & SAP SEM-BCS are rather independent systems. Though, BCS lives on top of BI-BW stack, it even may have master data different from those in BW.
Process chains, AFAIK, is completely the BW's feature. Certainly, you may use PCc on BW side, loading ODS/DSO and cubes involved in BCS data model.
The main con here is the lost transparency -- you don't control everything from the consolidation monitor.
The pro side is also rather obvious for me. Since, very often there is a huge difference between data quality at the data source and in the BCS totals cube, I need to make a lot of data transformation. Not only some data calculations or cleaning, but also transformation of data model: key figure model -> account model. It's much more easier to do in BW, for me.
I even call the ODS/cubes/routines involved in such transformation as intermediate layer, the layer between data source and SEM-BCS.
And this layer lives rather independently from BCS.
Hope this helps.

How to stop the data loads through process chains

hi,
I want to stop all the data loads to BI through Process chains where load happens periodic.
kindly suggest how can I proceed.

Hi,
Goto RSPC find your PC and double click on START then change the timings, i.e. give starting date is 01.01.9999 like that Save and ACtivate the PC, it won't start till 01.01.9999.

Authorizations setting for running the process chain

Hai
Iam planning to run the process chain for loading the data into ODS. But i dont have authorization for it.
so what are the authorizations i need to run the process chain in my system. And how can i set all those authorizations to my user-id. I have all authorization rights .
Pls let me knw
kumar

Hi,
Authorizations for Process Chains
Use
You use authorization checks in process chain maintenance to lock the process chain, and the processes of the chain, against actions by unauthorized users.
·        You control whether a user is allowed to perform specific activities.
·        You control whether a user is allowed to schedule the processes in a chain.
The authorization check for the processes in a chain runs when the system performs the check. This takes place upon scheduling or during synchronous execution. The check is performed in display mode. The check is performed for each user that schedules the chain; it is not performed for the user who executes the chain. The user who executes the chain is usually the BI background user. The BI background user automatically has the required authorizations for executing all BI process types. In attribute maintenance for the process chain, you can determine the user who is to execute the process chain.
See also: Display/Maintenance of Process Chain Attributes ® Execution User.
Features
For the administration processes that are bundled in a process chain, you require authorization for authorization object S_RS_ADMWB.
To work with process chains, you require authorization for authorization object S_RS_PC. You use this authorization object to determine whether process chains can be displayed, changed or executed, and whether logs can be deleted. You can use the name of the process chain as the basis for the restriction, or restrict authorizations to chains using the application components to which they are assigned.
Display/Maintain Process Chain Attributes
Use
You can display technical attributes, display or create documentation for a process chain, and determine the response of process chains during execution.
Features
You can display or maintain the following attributes for a process chain:
Process Chain ® Attribute ® ...
Information
Description
( Rename)
You can change the name of the process chain.
Display Components
Display components are the evaluation criterion in the process chain maintenance. Assigning the process chains to display components makes it easier to access the chain you want.
To create a new display component, choose Assign Display Components in the input help window and assign a technical name and description for the display component in the Display Grouping dialog box that appears.
Documents
You can create and display documents for a process chain.
For more information, see Documents.
Last Changed By
Displays the technical attributes of the process chain:
·        When it was last changed and who by
·        When it was last activated and who by
·        Object directory entry
Evaluation of Process Status
If you set this indicator, all the incorrect processes in this chain and in the overall status of the run are evaluated as successful; if you have scheduled a successor process upon error or always.
The indicator is relevant when using metachains: Errors in the processes of the subchains can be evaluated as unimportant for the metachain run. The subchain is evaluated as successful, despite errors in such processes of the subchain. If, in the metachain, the successor of the subchain is scheduled upon success, the metachain run continues despite errors in unimportant processes of the subchain.
Mailing and alerting are not affected by this indicator and are still triggered for incorrect processes if they have an upon error successor.
Polling Indicator
With this indicator you can control the response of the main process for distributed processes. Distributed processes, such as the load process, are characterized as having different work processes involved in specific tasks.
With the polling indicator you determine whether the main process needs to be kept until the actual process has ended.
By selecting the indicator:
-         A high level of process security is guaranteed, and
-         External scheduling tools can be provided with the status of the distributed processes.
However, the system uses more resources; and a background process is required.
Monitoring
With the indicator in the dialog box Remove Chain from Automatic Monitoring?, you can specify that a process chain be removed from the automatic monitoring using CCMS.
By default CCMS switches on the automatic process chain monitoring.
For more information about the CCMS context Process Chains, see the section BW Monitor in CCMS.
Alerting
You can send alerts using alert management when errors occur in a process chain.
For more information, see Send Alerts for Process Chains.
Background Server
You can specify here on which server or server group all of the jobs of a chain are scheduled. If you do not make an entry, the background management distributes the jobs between the available servers.
Processing Client
If you use process chains in a client-dependent application, you can determine here in which client the chain is to be used. You can only display, edit, schedule or execute the chain in this client.
If you do not maintain this attribute, you can display, edit, schedule or execute the process chain in all clients.
Process variants of type General Services that are contained in a process chain with this attribute set will only be displayed in the specified client.
This attribute is transported. You can change it by specifying an import client during import. You must create a destination to the client set here in the target system for the import post processing (transaction RSTPRFC) The chain is activated after import and scheduled, if necessary, in this client.
Execution User
In the standard setting a BI background user executes the process chain (BWREMOTE).
You can change the default setting so that you can see the user that executes the process chain and therefore the processes, in the Job Overview. You can select the current dialog user who schedules the process chain job, or specify a different user.
The setting is transported.
The BI background user has all the necessary authorizations to execute all BI process types. Other users must assign themselves these authorizations so that authorization errors do not occur during processing.
Job Priority
You use this attribute to set the job priority for all of the jobs in a process chain.

How to rollup cube data in Process chain?

I have loaded data into a cube, and when i look at the technical status it is green but there is nothing in the "request for reporting available"box. I went to Rollup Tab and manually execute the request. It worked.
But is there anyway that I can add a process type to do it automatically? I saw there are three process type related to Rollup, which one should I use?
1. Initial Fill of New Aggregates
2. Roll Up of Filled Aggregates/BIA Indexes (what does this mean?)
3. initial Activation and Filling of BIA Indexes
Thank you!

Dear experts,
We have the following problem: for certain figures we have on ODS level 2 daily updates: one at night and one at noon. During the week at noon we only load from the ODS into the Cubes only that data that is entered the same day (selection on CPU-Date in the InfoPackage). After loading the data at night we load the data which was entered the previous day (selection on CPU-Date in the InfoPackage). In this process we have a step in the process chain that deletes in the overlapping request of the previous day (which was loaded at noon).
Our Process Chain for loading the data from ODS into the cubes looks as following:
Delete Indexes of the cubes -> Load data from ODS into Cubes -> Generate Cube Indexes -> Delete overlapping Requests in InfoCubes
After filling the BIA-Indexes on this cube, the process chain gives an error message at the stage where the overlapping request should be deleted. The error messages says:
Uncaught Exception: Keyfigure is of type Float.
To solve this error at the moment we manually delete the BIA Indexes, delete the overlapping requests and fill the BIA Indexes again. Since the functions 'delete BIA Index' and 'Fill BIA Index' is not available in RSPC we can not do this automatically in the process chain.
I also tried like above mentioned taking the step 'roll up filled BIA Indexes' into the process chain, but the check of the process chain creates a message stating that i cannot do this when in the same process chain the steps 'Delete Indexes of the Cube' and 'generate Indexes of the cubes' are included.
Does anybody know a solution how i can delete overlapping requests in a process chain with filled BIA Indexes.
Many thanks in advance for your kind reply.
Best regards,
Ilja Dekeyser
