Issues related to process chains

dear gurus,
i hope all are doing great, this is the message regarding the issue with process chain in sap-bw(from application server)
i'm trying to load data from flat file to ods and infocube parallely, i've created the infocube and ods object and i've also created the respective infopackages and copied the name of infopackages.
i've created the process chain and in monitoring i.e. rspcm when i'm adding the process chain the status in not green its a yellow triangle.
apart from that i'm getting an error message saying that- objects have been locked by the sapuser.
please do help me to get rid of this issue.
please do send me the related documents regarding the process chains, that would help me to understand the concept.
thank you.
regards,
ratin.

Statistics technical content activation issue with MD process chain in BI7

Hi,
Let me give you history of the issue first.
I had to activate the Statistics in BI7. I followed the SAP Note 965386 and activated the Technical Content.
Faced activation issues in MD process chain, Content Master Data-0TCT_MD_C_FULL_P01. It dint get activated, Followed the SAP note 1065919, which asked me to remove the below process from RSPC and activate it.
Load data- Process Variant Attribute and
Load data- Process Variant Text.
I did the same and it got activated after removing them.
Issue is. Later knew that manually activating the Process chain from Content would have activated those Infopackages aswell.
Now how should I get those processes into the chain and activate? Based on your suggestions, I can let you know what all I have been trying to fix it?
Relying on you for solution.
Thanks
Pavan

Thank You Neethika,
I have this issue solved. I replicated the data sources, activated those infoPackages manually and then added those variants into the process chain manually. So my MD chain now has all the necessary process.
Now i need to schedule them and see if it runs with out any errors. I will keep this thread open till i run it to take your help if i get any errors while running them.
Thanks
Pavan

Issue with the process chain?

Hi All,
I have a process chain triggerred by an event.I had this transported into Q box.After moving it to Q i did click on acativate and schedule icon.When i triggered the event in Sm64.The process chain triggerred successfully.The next day when i tried to trigger the event ,the process did nothing,its only after i actiavted the process chain and triggrred the event the process.
I know the process chain should be good after ictivated once when moved into a new system.Can anybody tell me how to resolve my issue of activating the PC whenever i wnat to trigger it.What i am i missing here?
Please advice,urgent

I think Geo answered what you want and what I wanted to tell.
Thanks Geo
Ther are two basic things
--> In order that your PC responds to your "Event & Parameter", maintain the same and PC <b>should be in scheduled status</b>
--> the periodic check box <b>schedules again</b> once the current run completes. i.e makes ready the PC for the next run whenever the next "event and parameter" gets triggered by any means ( you no need to activate and schedule again)
Sorry If my answer confused you..Hope everything is clear now...!

1) if u load data into data target, u can do directly into Data target without loading PSA.
2) If u use Cube , if u do partion, u can improve loading performance

Related to process chain

Is it possible that if i have schedule some process but due to some problem in server(R/3 )that process are not run ,then it send SMS on some specific users mobile.

Hi,
Yes u can do that using Alerts..
What u can do is u have to send the mail alert from the net to ur mobile..
you can have a look at this thread for some pointers:

PSA Deletion Issue from the Process Chain

Hi,
I am facing problem in PSA Deletion from the chain. Scenario and issue as follow:
Scenario:
I have a PSA deletion Chain which got trigger daily. Which contains the many "Deletion of Requests from PSA" step. Datasources in the steps are from 3 different source system. Previously all are working fine. I am using 7.1 version.
Issue:
1. All PSA Deletion step working fine except the BW source system Datasources.
2. Few of the Datasources from BW source system are working fine(i.e, deleting the requests as per the condition given in the step.) and few are not(i.e, it does not pick up any request for deletion, but it have to delete some requests as per the conditions.).
All the PSA deletion steps are turns to green when chain executed.Few of them is not working from august and few are from the october(i.e, Not any specific date)
Please suggest me the solution for above issue.
Thanks in Advance.
Himanshu.

Hi ,
Goto display/maintain variant of the PSA deletion step and compare conditions of the Infopackages which delete data successfully with those which do not .
The condition given for the info-package whose data is not deleted from PSA , is not being satisfied that might be the reason the request is not deleted from the infopackage.

Hello,
The problem might be due to missing or incorrect customizing settings in
Tcode RSTPRFC.
Please review the SAP note 659160
659160 - "Error during remote call of destination ' ... ' -RSPC051"
Please ensure the user and password are maintained in the transaction SM59 for the
myself rfc connection. Also for the transaction RSTPRFC.
There are objects that require client-specific processing as part of
import postprocessing. However, transports are usually performed in
client 000. This processing is enabled by an RFC logon with a user
change of client 000 to the productive client in BW.
Therefore please maintain these two places (sm59 and rstprfc) according to note
659160 - "Error during remote call of destination ' ... ' -RSPC051".
if those things are maintained this error shouldn't occur anymore

Issue while loading Master Data through Process Chain in Production

Hi All,
We are getting an error in Process chain while loading Master Data
Non-updated Idocs found in Source System
Diagnosis
IDocs were found in the ALE inbox for Source System that are not updated.
Processing is overdue.
Error correction:
Attempt to process the IDocs manually. You can process the IDocs manually using the Wizard or by selecting the IDocs with incorrect status and processing them manually.
I had checked the PSA also but I could not find any record and the strange thing is, Job itself is not getting scheduled. Can any one help me out in order to resolve this issue.
Regards
Bhanumathi

Hi
This problem is not related to Process chain..
u can try this..
In RSMO, select the particular load you want to monitor.
In the menu bar, Environment >>> Transact. RFC >>> Select whichever is required, BW or Source System.
In the next screen you can select the Execute button and the IDOCS will be displayed.
Check Note 561880 - Requests hang because IDocs are not processed.
OR
Transact RFC - status running Yellow for long time (Transact RFC will be enabled in Status tab in RSMO).
Step 1: Goto Details, Status get the IDoc number,and go to BD87 in R/3,place the cursor in the RED IDoc entroes in tRFC
queue thats under outbound processing and click on display the IDOC which is on the menu bar.
Step 2: In the next screen click on Display tRFC calls (will take you to SM58 particular TRFC call)
place the cursor on the particular Transaction ID and go to EDIT in the menu bar --> press 'Execute LUW'
(Display tRFC calls (will take you to SM58 particular TRFC call) ---> select the TrasnID ---> EDIT ---> Execute LUW)
Rather than going to SM58 and executing LUW directly it is safer to go through BD87 giving the IDOC name as it will take you
to the particular TRFC request for that Idoc.
OR
Go into the JOB Overview of the Load there you should be able to find the Data Package ID.
(For this in RSMO Screen> Environment> there is a option for Job overview.)
This Data Package TID is Transaction ID in SM58.
OR
SM58 > Give * / user name or background (Aleremote) user name and execute.It will show you all the pending TRFC with
Transaction ID.
In the Status Text column you can see two status
Transation Recorded and Transaction Executing
Don't disturb, if the status is second one Transaction Executing. If the status is first one (Transation Recorded) manually
execute the "Execute LUWs"
OR
Directly go to SM58 > Give * / user name or background (Aleremote) user name and execute. It will show TRFCs to be executed
for that user. Find the particular TRFC (SM37 > Req name > TID from data packet with sysfail).select the TrasnID (SM58) --->
EDIT ---> Execute LUW
(from JituK)
Hope it helps

Transport issue- Process chain

Hi Folks,
I am facing a issue when transporting process chain,
Am transporting a set of process chain using transport connection a) when I choose all the objects and create a request and save it, I get a message saying ' specify request', however the request is generated.
b) When I transport the request I get an error as " Source system does not exist".
I checked conversion of logical systems and RSLOGSYSMAP system, I dont find any issue.
Would appreciate quick response.
Thanks,
Ravi

Thanks Sheetal,
My settings are fine,
I tried removing the info package and do, no much of a change, however afte specify request is continously checked I get the errors as " Errors occurred when saving dependent object R3TR/PROG/ZMAJ_SUIVI of RSPV ABAP MAJ_SU",
I guess its related to process variant, but as per my understanding the process chains can be transported with Variants,
Any help ??
Regards,
Ravi

Process chains issue:very urgent

Hi All,
This issue is related to process chains.Last weekend our Basis team changed the BW PRD from BWBPRD to BWBPRD1.The process chains were schedlued previously on BWBPRD, so after the server change none of the process chains were triggered.
We have rescheduled our process chains in the new server yesterday, but no success.
We could not find any log in the SM37 also.
Kindly suggest how to overcome this issue
Thanks,
Manjula

Hi,
Check do you have connection with this new system( BWBPRD1) to your source system (R/3), and check the changed server is reflecting in SM66 or SM50. try to execute the job immediate and check chain is running or not. at the time of execution you can assign the new server to run this particular chain.
as for as your problem concerned i think your application is not active.

Issues in Process chain after Transporting to Q

Hi All
I have couple of issues with my process chain (in Q). We have recently upgraded from BW3.5 to BI7.0. After upgrade i have a change made to one of my Process chain. i have transported it successfully to Q system. I have collected all the related objects associated with the change in the transport. But when try to see the changes changes in the process chain in Q system i have the following issues.
1. i do not see my changes in display mode. But i am able to see all the changes if i go to change mode (this looks weird and i dont know why)
2. i am unable to schdule the process chain in Q system as i was able to do earlier. Now it is asking for Transport when i try to schedule the process chain. this was not the case earlier.
3. In the transport i also collected a newly created infopackage and added it to the Process chain. But i do not see any link between the infopackage and the process chain (it was supposed to have a link as it had in DEV), i mean when i go to infopackage it used to give me a mesage saying the infopackage is already available in Process chain which i got in DEV.
All the above cases were working per normal in DEV systems tested and were collected as required in the transports and moved to Q
Please let me know ASAP if any of you have encountered similar problems before and have solutions. i saw couple of related threads (some suggested to directly activate the process chain in Q system by opening the Q systems as an alternate) but could not find a solution
Any sort of help will be really appreciated
Thanks
HK

1. Display mode shows only the active version of Process chain. When you go into change mode, it displays the inactive version (if any available). Make sure you activate the process chain in the change mode. Then the chain you see in display and change mode will be in sync.
2. When you try to schedule, the Process chain will be activated as well. If your Q system is prompting for transport then probably the system is open for changes. If you want to modify process chains in Q and P systems, make appropriate Object Changeability settings in Transport connection in Q and P systems and make sure the system is closed for changes (SCC4).
3. Use Transport connection to collect the objects required for Process chain. After transport, check the transport log and make sure all the objects are imported successfully.

Process Chain schedulin issue

hi .
When scheduling Process chain to run periodically on daily basis we found an issue. If process chain is scheduled to run daily at 00:00:10 from 2/8/07 onwards.It's released the job at 00:00:10 from 3/8/07.
It means it's moving job to next day from schedule date when it is scheduled to run between 00:00:10 to 01:45:00
If we schedule it to run daily at 01:50:00 from 2/8/07 then it's releasing job at same date and time which is correct?
Is it because of any Basis setting

Hi Rupesch
This happen sometimes when you activate for the first time the chain, I m not sure why, but we had the same issue in our 7.0
Anyway, you can solve that, after you schedule your chain, go to your start variant,/see "all jobs" / and change the job from sm37.
Hope this help you

Process chain taking long time to complete

Hi,
I am having following issues in the process chain daily loads
1) The PSA deletion is taking very long time on fridays only (nearly 3 hrs). Other days it gets deleted in 1 hr max.
2) Just to load 381 records via dtp from DSO to cube takes nearly 2 hrs(Delta load). No major routines are written in the transformation.
How to analyse a process in process chain which does not fail, but takes very long time to complete. Is there any tool or transaction in BW which can help us to analyse why the process chain takes so long time to complete in different days. One day it completes in 8 hrs, another day it takes 12 hrs.
None of the transactions, SM37, SM50, SLG1, LOGS etc are giving me any help to analyse this issue.
If it fails we have error logs to check and analyse, but without failing how we can analyse and fix the delay and reduce the time of loading data. Please guide me.
Thanks in advance.

Hi.......
1) This might be due to the poor performance of the system ..there wont be enoughwork processes avilabe in teh system .- What needs to be done if it does not have enough work processes available. Though I can find that lots of dialog processes were free during these jobs as well some Background processes were also free.?
Look to increase Work Process.......................u can do two things..............U can cancel some Job...........which r not progressing...........or which r not very important for the time being..........
Or if possible........u can increase number of servers..........
Look When a Job will start...............first it will run in background.............u can start in in Dialog also..........but for Dialogue after some time ..load will go to time out.................now many Child jobs will be created for a single background jobs..............they may run in Dialogue..........u can monitor them through SM66............
2) Check ST04 for lock waits and dead locks ..if the same lock persist for long then check with basis team.
What needs to be conveyed to the basis team when these locks happen?
generally these will be temporary Locks.............after some time locks will be realeased..............if they persist for a long time...........then u can contact Basis people..........Or if u can understand that which job is creating the lock.............like if u double click on the job >> click on Job details...............from there u will find the PID................copy that.............and check in ST04..........whether they matches or not..............now suppose it match.............and u know that job is not very important............then u can cancel the job.............
Check also the table space availba in St04 . the usuage should nt be more than 90%
What needs to be conveyed to the basis team if the usage is more than 90%.?
U can ask them to increase the Table space........
Check the sm37 >> delay column it should nt be high
What needs to be done if delay column is high. Actually it is high for these jobs (PSA deletion and load from DSO to Cube visa DTP (Delta load)?
If Delay is more.............it means ...........that there is no free work process...jobs r going to Release state............solution I had already given u.......
Check the PID refeclting in lock waits in sm66 wether they are progressing or nt ..
If they are not progressing what action needs to be taken?
Actually...........suppose one Dialogue job is running............it may change..........ie that Dialogue job will go to Stop status.........some other job will start............anyways if it does'nt progress............u can cacel the JOb.........
Check OS07 for DB if the idle time is less then 20% then its a problem ..
If the Idle time is less than 20% what action needs to be taken?
U can contact the Basis people.......
Check sm21 and RFC connection with other source systems in sm59 ..
What needs to be checked in SM21 and SM59 specifically? What parameter i need to check?
In SM21.............if red status is there............check the Log beside that..............may be it will be some Terminal disconnected.......
In SM59...........clck on test connection..........
if the problem is occuring due to only one source system then check the performance of that system ..
How to check the performance of these systems? Any tools available in R/3 system to check its performance?
No.....in this way u can check performance for all the source system...........go to SM59............double click on the desired source system>> click on test connection......
If All these are persisting then its a performance problem and check with basis team ..
Is there any special settings which needs to be maintained to achieve better performance of Process chain loads?
U can Improve the performance of process chain by Parallel Processing..........ie split the loads by giving selections...........and execute thenm in parallel..........
Regards,
Debjani........
