Infopackage returns 0 when triggered from process chain

I have an Infopackage triggered by process chain (say PC A) which is further triggered by other meta-chains.
So PC A, is triggered by PC B, and PC B is triggered by PC C.
Daily it returns 0 records.
However, if I run the process chain manually, that is PC A, the infopackage returns correct number of records.
What may be the cause?

Hi ,
When you are executing through PC then it is running with the user id ALEREMOTE because of not having proper authorization it picking 0 records but when you run the same with your ID manually then you are getting the data for the same .
You need to get in touch with the Basis team to check for the authorization for these 2 ID's .
From my point you can use SU01 to get the information for all the profiles associated with the ID   and  then with RSECADMIN you can check for the Tcodes and related authorization activity associated with the ID.
Please check and updated accordingly later .
Thanks

  • InfoPackage Hangs when called from Process Chain

    We recently implemented the 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL DataSource and have scheduled the execution of a Delta InfoPackage in our nightly Process Chains.
    After working correctly for 2 weeks the InfoPackage has hung the last 3 nights. It is being called and when I view the process chain log it is in the yellow (in process) status. When I look in SM37 in R/3 the extractor has not been called.
    All of our master data and transactional data from other areas runs prior to this extractor and works perfectly via the process chain and if I force the InfoPackage to red and re-execute manually for 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL I have no problems.
    How/where should I troubleshoot this?

    Hi Jonathan,
    Goto your process chain-> Select the delta infopackage -> right click and select wait time and enter the time in seconds. You could set it to 600 secs(10 minutes).
    This would be a permanent solution to your problem as you need not go to BD87 each time for your data load.

  • Problems with DBConnect datasources when triggered from pchain (DB2 databas

    Hello,
    We are using BI 7 and DB Connect functionality to remotely connect to our DB2/DB6 database to extract some data.
    We created source system and data sources based on dbconnect and included infopackages, etc. into our process chains to load.
    When we schedule process chain to run at certain times, InfoPackages fail at random or continue to run indefinitely. There is no clear error message, other than: Database system cannot be reached or The request is still running in the source system.
    We made sure database was up during the times we are trying to schedule process chain. So, this is not the issue. The interesting thing is that whenever we try to run InfoPackages manually (not through pchain), we do not get any errors ever.
    It appears that this issue occurs only when the load is triggered from the process chain (BWREMOTE user). And it happens at random. One day it could work fine, another day the same infopckage would fail.
    Any ideas of what might be happening?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    I am not sure with this just trying to help you..
    When you run the infopackage manually it uses the User name and password hard coded in the Source System Connection Settings, and when you run it from process chain does it still use the same username and password as this happens in backgroud please check that.
    Also clear any other yellow loads/pending jobs in SM37 of this job(triggered from process chain) type in the past.
    waiting for your feedback.

  • Why the process chain always run twice when triggered from R3?

    I run a program from R3 by calling the remote function 'RSSM_EVENT_RAISE' on BW to trigger an event and in turn the event on BW bring up the running of a process chain.  But whenever I run the program on R3 to bring up the running of the process chain, I find the process chain always run twice at the same time.  Does anybody knows the answer? 
    And also I would like to know the functionalities of the two picture buttons "Activate" and "Activate and Schedule" in process chain.  In which case the "Activate" button should be used and in which case, the "Activate and Schedule" button should be used?   If we click the Start variant of a process chain, then click "Change Selections" button which bring up the window "Start Time" where the buttons "Immediate", "Date/Time", "After job", and "After event" are listed at the top.  If we modify at any of the above buttons, then after save this modification, we will have to click "Activate and Schedule" button to make it work, right? 
    Thanks a lot and everyone's idea is greatly appreciated!

    Kevin, make sure there is only one job scehduled for the Start Process of your Process Chain.  If you bring up the Process Chain (not the log view), right click on the Start Process and select "Displaying Scheduled Job(s)...".  There should only be one scheduled job with name BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER.  If there is more than one, then when triggered, it would execute more than once at the same time.  If there is only one job, then maybe your R/3 program is triggering the event more than once? 
    As far as the Start conditions for the Start Process, it works off the same principals as a scheduled job.  These start conditions determine when or how the Process Chain is to be executed.  You also have control over frequency.  These start conditions determine the scheduling of the Start Process of your Process Chain.
    When you schedule a Process Chain, a separate scheduled job is created for "each" process in the Chain.  BW controls the triggering of these jobs based upon how the processes in the Chain are linked.  All the jobs associated with Process Chains have strict naming conventions and all begin with BI_PROCESS_...  If you use SM37 to view all jobs that begin with BI_PROCESS_ you will find alot of scheduled jobs associated with your process chains.  Each job represents one of the processes within your process chains. 
    Does this help?
    Another tip might be to trigger the event manually in BW (use tx SM64).  If the process chain executes twice again, then maybe there is a separate scheduled job in BW that triggers the process chain that is triggered by the same event as the start process of the process chain.

  • Triggering of process chains based on  events

    Hello experts,
    I have a requirement to trigger the process chain whenever there is a file placed into the application server.
    The file comes comes into the application server  randomly i.e not periodically and the file name comes with created date and time.
    My process chain has to run immediately once file has been placed in the application server.
    Can you help me on this?

    Hi
    This means your Event need to run every day to check if the file exist or not? if the file exist in the application server then PC need to be triggered.
    Take the help of ABAP person, so that he can implement the logic you are looking for.
    Check the below link which can give u idea how to proceed.(its also similar to ur requirement)

  • Can we call Function Module from Process Chain?

    Hello experts,
    I have a small question.
    Can we call Function Module(SE37) from Process Chain?
    If yes can you please provide some example link?
    I m new to BI world.
    regards

    Hi,
    Create one ABAP program and call the function module from that program. Check the link to know how to call a function module from an ABAP program.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_wp/helpdata/en/d1/801edb454211d189710000e8322d00/content.htm
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_wp/helpdata/en/9f/db98ef35c111d1829f0000e829fbfe/content.htm
    Then use process type "ABAP Program" in your process chain and add the program you have created. So then this program will be executed via process chain and this program will call the function module.

  • Calling r/3 program from process chain

    Hi
    I did the following steps to call r3 program from process chain :
    Steps in R/3 system
    1. Created a program  which needs to be called from bw and at the end of the program i have calling 'RSPC_ABAP_FINISH' function module & passing the rfc id of bw system and bw process variant.
    2. created a even in r/3 (please note that this is not there in bw)
    3. Created a job  and  under start condiion selected 'after event' and mentioned the event created earlier. And under step1 enter the abap program to be executed
    Steps in BW system :
    1. Created a process chain
    2. inserted a process type 'abap program' and selected the call mode 'Asynchronous' and under destination entered the RFC destination of R/3 system. Under scheduled program enterd the event name created in R/3
    after executing above process chain,  the abap program node is becoming green but the abap program is not getting executed in r/3 system. And also the process after the program node in process chain is not getting executed.  The job which was created in r/3 still showing the released status
    Kindly advice where i am wrong.

  • Triggering of Process Chain in BW from R/3 system

    Hi,
    We have a special requirement where in the R/3 system (Project systems), the business user creates and saves a project.
    Currently we have a process chain for this master data which loads every 10 min on a daily basis, but many times it happens that the new chain starts before the first one gets finished, thereby creating a lock with the loads.
    To counter this we are trying to use a functional module at R/3 which gets triggered whenever the business user creates and saves the project in R/3. Though this program worked for us, but a new issue came. If the user creates 2 projects and saves it two times in a span of just 2 or 3 min, then once again the collision of chain occurs.
    Our purpose is that, once the old chain finishes, then only the new chain should get triggered. To achieve that we tried to find some options and found a table called RSPCPROCESSLOG which is present both in BW system and R/3 system. This table consists of the start and end time of a chain. So based on these fields of the table we can achieve the above. But this table is not configured to capture the logs in R/3 system.
    Please do let me know how to configure the RSPCPROCESSLOG table in R/3 system to capture the chains timing of BW. Otherwise suggest a way to achieve this task.
    Regards
    Vishwanath

    in rough :
    create table in r/3 (eg z_chain_status) : via se11. insert two fields : - Process_chain char 60
                                                                        - Active : char 1
    R/3 create FM : via se37 (eg Z_update_chain_status)
    import parameter = status
    process chain can be hardcoded or also defined as varaible, as you wish...
    select status from z_chain_status.
    status = import parameter
    modify z_chain status
    BW : create program : via se38 z_update_status_in_r3
    parameter = status
    call function z_update_chain_status destination R/3 system status
    create two variants of program :
    varaint z_active : with parameter status = 'X'
    varaint z_inactive : with parameter status = ' '
    process chain
    step 1 = start
    step 2 = abap process type
             progam : z_update_status_in_r3
             variant z_active
    step 3 - n : your loads
    step n + 1 : abap process type
             progam : z_update_status_in_r3
             variant z_inactive
    R/3 user-exit  or business addin : slect from table z_chain_status;
    if active = 'X'. exit. else trigger BW pc (I suppose as it works do today)

    Hi Prasanth,
    If the background jobs are not availbale when IP is triggered then the BG job will ot be executed and the IDOCs will get struck.
    Once we push the IDOc only the BG job will be executed until then the PC will wait with yellow status.
    Hence this is not the issue with the non availability of BG WP.
    Also for last one week this issue was happening but today the job executed successfully through the Process chain itself.
    Then it shows this is not the issue with PC also.
    The job is executed using RFCUSR.
    Please suggest what would be the possible cause for this issue.

  • Download file from process chain

    Hello experts,
    i have just created a data model and report from flat file(CSV) in BW 7.0.
    I understand that if I want to include the extraction from the DataSource into the InfoPackage in the process chain, the CSV file needs to be on the Application Server.
    The external database is being updated with new data daily. There is a URL - www.example.com/export.php -  that when accessed, deliveres the updated flatfile from the database.
    My question is: can i integrate this download in a process chain to be automatically triggered, so that every morning I have the updated data in the report?
    Thanks.

    Hi Andrei,
    Am not sure how to execute the url using the process chain. But still we can check whether the file is available in the application server or not.
    We have a process variant called OS Command, using this variant type we can check whether the file is available or not for some tim intervals. In case file is availabe then the next process will trigger else it will keep on searching for the file until it finds.
    Regards
