  • Cancelled job still visible in Job Overview as active

    Hello Peers
    I am loading the data from One Cube to other and had given selection wrongly,
    I tried checking the PID number for the Job and Cancelled it with Core in SM50.
    then i made the Traffic light Red and deleted the request from the Infocube Manage.
    But in SM37 i see that job is in Active state.
    Can anyone tell what could be the reason, even i tried selecting that and cancelling it from menu it shows Cancellation not possible as job is not in active state.
    Suggest me why it is showing the job in active state

    Hi there,
    That's because the job is already cancelled but transaction sm37 is not automatically refreshed.
    Go to transaction sm37 mark your job and choose Check Status (CtrlShiftF12).
    This will update your job status to cancelled.

  • Datasource 0UC_SWTMSGDATA - request remains in yellow state

    hi all,
    we are using the datasource 0UC_SWTMSGDATA to extract message data for the switch documents.
    every time we scheduled the infopackage to load data into sap bi, the datasource extracts all data records to the bi.
    but at the end, when all records arrived at bi, the request remains in yellow state.
    do you have the same problem? what's the reason?
    we are already using the datasource 0UC_SWTDOC, it works fine.
    kind regards,
    phil

    Hi,
    You have to check  the job status in SM37 in R/3 system. If it shows "Active mode", then you will be getting Yellow color in BW. You may have to wait till the job gets finished in R/3.
    Sometimes, transferring I-Docs take time.

  • Job is in scheduled state for longer time.

    Hi All,
    I am running a load which involves extraction from source system. The load was taking longer than the usual time. I grew suspicious and checked the status of the job in the source system. But that was sitting in the scheduled state and when i try to change the job status , not able to do so. I checked the BGD processes availability and they were all in waiting status.
    What can be done for this? Suggest ....

    Hi..the issue you have is probably due to the fact that already a lot many jobs are running in background in your R/3 system and unless they finish you job will not get any background processes to get it to active state from the scheduled state.
    Now thats why usually BW loading are done at night or off hours of business when transactions or r/3 jobs are not running much.
    Schedule your job at a time when background processes are available then you won't face this issue.
    Contact the basis handling the R/3 system.

  • Active state not working in scrolling site (with anchor links)

    I'm design a scrolling site with anchor links and an horizontal menu on the top.
    when i publish the site and click on the menu buttons the site scrolling to the place of the anchor but the active state in the menu is not working.
    now... when i leave the main page (were the scrolling site is) and then return back to it all active states are working perfectly
    anyone have this bug? or any one know how to fix it ?

    Hmmm...I've just been playing around, and I think I got the Active State to work correctly.  I think my problem was not understand what Active State means.
    To answer your question, I was changing the Font Color and Box Fill Color of the Active State.
    I did not understand that Active State means the look of the Menu Item when the PAGE is active.  I thought it meant the look of the Menu item when the cursor is scrolling down the Menu (i.e. when the MENU is Active, not the page).
    Look at this page for an example of what I'm trying to achieve...
    http://www.pgavdestinations.com
    When you hover over the "Work" menu item, and move the cursor down the menu, the state of "Work" remains changed until you move the cursor off of that menu column. It does NOT return back to it's Normal state until you are off of that menu column.
    Is there a way to achieve this with the menu states in Muse?
    Thanks for the replies!

  • Photoshop Button in Active State Returns to Normal After Rollover?

    Hello,
    I'm working on a glossary reference website in Muse, and have hit a roadblock with my photoshop buttons.
    I have created menu buttons in Photoshop that have two different states - one for active and rollover, and another for normal and down (the button is actually saved with four different layers/states, one for each, but for what the user will see, it's really only two options). I've used these menu buttons as rollover triggers for blank compositions, and when the user rolls over the button, the name of the page appears below it, and then disappears on rollout (otherwise the names would overlap and it would look very cluttered).
    The issue that I have found is that, when I preview the page in my browser, the buttons appear to function properly in that they show up in the active state indicating that the page that they are linked to is the one that they are on.
    Initial View - Home Page:
    ...and when I rollover the image of the page that I am currently on, the button shows the name of the page as desired, like so:
    However, when I rollout, the button reverts back to the normal/down state, even though I am still on the home page.
    Below is a screenshot of the composition settings that I have set up for this widget. I tried switching the "Hide Target" to none, but since the target is referring to the word "Home", the word "Home" remained visible in addition to the button remaining in the active state, which is not what I want. I also tried selecting "Triggers on Top", but the issue was not solved here either.
    What am I missing? How can I make sure that my button remains in the active state when on the page that it is linked to?
    Thanks for your help!
    Rachel

    Sounds like a bug that's the fallout of the overloaded meaning of "Active" state. "Active" is both the state used for an item with a hyperlink applied that points to the current page (or an anchor point in the current scroll range on the current page) and the state used for a trigger or thumbnail in a Composition or Slideshow widget that corresponds to the a current active item in the composition or slideshow.
    It appears we honor the hyperlink definition of "Active" on page load for a composition trigger with a hyperlink to the current page applied, but don't honor that definition of active when transition to having no items in the composition active (or presumable when transition to having a different item in the composition active).
    The only workaround that comes to mind would be the very tedious approach of replicating this composition widget on each page, removing the hyperlink on the "active" trigger and manually formatting it's "Normal" state to appear active.
    I've written up the bug. However, it may not get fixed immediately. (We tend to collect smaller fixes in an area and then address them all at once or when other changes are planned in that area, due to the overhead involved in ramping up to work on an area and thoroughly retest it after changes.)

  • Job hang in RUNNING state

    Hi,
    Database ver. 11g (11.1.0.7.0)
    I have created simple job using DBMS_SCHEDULER.

    WHERE job_name = 'TEST_JOB';
    JOB_NAME  SESSION_ID  RUNNING_INSTANCE, CPU_USED
    TEST_JOB   null          null          null Job is remaining in hang state, could you please let me know possible reason?
    Many thanks.

    Hi,
    Actually your syntax is exactly right for running a single run-immediate job.
    it looks like the slave running your job may have crashed or terminated unexpectedly. You should do a stop_job (force=>true) on your job and you should look through your job slave trace files j0trc for reasons why your job slave did not finish the job. You can also try grepping your job slave traces for the job name 'TEST_JOB' to find the right trace.
    Hope this helps,
    Ravi.

  • Job is in suspened state

    Dear SDNers,
    How do we know a job is in suspended state.
    because some of my ECC jobs are in Released\ from last 2 days and scheduled time as 2 days back only..it runs for every 3 hrs .
    Thanks,Swathi

    Hi,
    Well here's what you need to do.
    If the job is in 'Released' state in ECC, that implies that it has received no background work process (WP) to start the activity.
    Please check the background work processes with SM66 or SM51 (here choose the server and check the work process status).
    Check how many BGD (background) work processes are in 'Waiting' state.
    Here the work processes will most probably be either 'On hold' or 'running' state. Go inside the work process and see what activity was being done last after which it got stuck and then inform the basis team to end the work process forcefully.
    This will solve your issue.

  • Task remain in Ready state

    Hi Experts,
    When in am triggering my workflow, its task remains in Ready state. I always have to execute it manually. Could anyone of you please let me know what could be the reason?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Pritam Kunal

    Hi,
    Step is not executing its first step only. Sub workflow step is the alst step.
    Also, There is no need of any action by user. so no one will have to receive the workitem. this task is there to get some data by executing a method. This itself is not getting executing automatically.
    Workflow is active ans task is background task only.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Applying Active state of top level nav. menu to child pages

    I am trying to keep a consistent look across the child pages of a top level site. I'd like the main navigation bar to remain in an active state for the parent page while the user navigates the child pages associated with that page using submenus. Ideally, I'd like the active state to remain on the top level menu so that the user knows they are still within that parent while they drill down to the specific information they are looking for.
    Brand new at this and am truly your 'no HTML' experience, just design work gal. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Final trigger for lightbox seems to load in active state

    i am a total noob
    i designed a site with a lightbox and 5 triggers.
    i made the triggers blank boxes and overlayed them on a grid of 5 photos.
    i also added txt to each trigger to define its rollover state- normal is no fill/ rollover and pushed is filled/ active is no fill.
    for some reason, the final trigger does not do the roll over action for the text box. i think it is because it loads into the active state but i can not be sure.
    i noticed that once the corresponding triggers are activated, the text boxes do not resume they're roll over behavior- they remain in the active state.
    this is the site www.joepennella.com
    the trigger i'm taling about is on the bottom right- for "commencement"
    any guidance would be greatly appreciated
    max

    how do i change it so that when the page loads that text frame loads normal state? i can't seem to get this particular txt frame to do that. all the others do it. i've deleted it, copied another, made it from scratch- this last one always seems to load in active state
    also, after coming out of the lightbox- is it possible to make the txt frame return to normal state?

  • Dotted line around image frame in active state mode.

    In my active state, I have the button set to open in a new window once it's clicked on, which it does. But when I go back to the page, there is a dotted line around the image frame that doesn't go away. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi
    I believe you are using Firefox to view the site, as this occurs only on firefox.
    This is a known issue on their end as the selection for page object remains when we return to page.
    The details can be found on this link :
    https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Page_Inspector
    where it is mentioned that they would be taking this off from Firefox 29 onwards.
    From Muse we cannot control this as its a browser specific selector function.
    Thanks,

  • Active State not working in Horizontal Menu Bar

    I have a Horizontal Menu Bar.
    I've set the Top Level Item with Normal, Rollover, Mouse Down and Active States to be different. 
    All three work on the Top Level Item, EXCEPT for Active State. When the menu is Active, and I move the mouse down the items, the Top Level Item defualts to the Normal State, NOT the Active State.
    I've tried trashing the Active State and rebuilding it.  That did not work.
    I can't figure out how to get the Top Level Item in the Menu Bar to display the Active State.
    Hope someone has some suggestions, or knows if this is a bug.
    Thanks.

  • Batch jobs with status "active" but aren't really active

    We have 4 jobs that show up in SM37 with a status of "active", but they aren't really active.
    They are from 1998, and the client & server listed no longer exist. The PIDs listed do not exist on any servers.
    We have tried to cancel, delete, check status, nothing works.
    Is there some way to get rid of these jobs from the system?
    RSBTCDEL / RSBTCDEL2 will not work, because the jobs are active.
    Thank you.

    When I try to cancel the "active" job, I get message "Error occured determining batch work process information" (Message BT241).
    When I do a Check Status, it just says "1 jobs were checked and 0 jobs were corrected"
    When I try to delete, it says "Job xxxx is active. The selected function cannot be performed"
    We have jobs SAP_REORG_JOBS and SAP_REORG_JOBSTATISTIC running. I cannot find a standard job SAP_REORG_JOBSSTATUS mentioned in Yves reply. If this existst, can you tell me what program is being executed by the job?
    We shut down / restarted one of the systems that has some of the old jobs yesterday, and the problem still exists.
    We are at Basis release 702, SP 12.
    I will take a look at the BP_JOB* function modules
