Master data process chain

Hi All,
I was asked to create masterdata process chain for info objects........WBS element, cost element,project and fund.......
So for these do i need to create process chain for each info object or else i have to create one for each infoobject?
Please post some suggestions and steps.
Regards

Hi Raj........
Yes..........u can include all these three in one Process chain........not a problem.............but obviously it depends on ur requirement......
Look.........for WBS element........there is Attribute,Hierarchy,Text.............for us Attribute is Critical.........so it is getting loaded as a part of a Critical chain..........Hierarchy and Text are included in the same chain............but u can included in one chain...........but remeber..always load in series.........not in parallel.........bcoz.........even attibute,text and hierarchy will lock each other........
cost element also hav Attribute,Hierarchy,Text..........for us it is getting loaded as a part of a FC chain......since it belongs to the FC area.........but u can include this in the same chain........
For project we r loading only text..........now for us it is non critical............we r loading it in the same chain of WBS element......
None of them has any Reference Characteristics............so u just include all of them in a single chain in any sequence......

Debjani.....

Master data Process chain running long time

Dear SDN Team,
PC Process Chain: General Master Data - time running is about 4.5 hours . how we can improve running time.
There are 15-25 info objects are loading from this process chain.
any steps to improve the performace
thanks and kind regards,
Lakshman Kumar G

Hi,
Go to the function module RSD_IOBJ_GET to find the object name of the dimension. Go to SE37 & proceed as follows.
I_IOBJNM = 'Info Object Name'
I_OBJVERS = 'A'
I_BYPASS_BUFFER = 'X'
and then Execute the FM.
Double click on the "'E_S_VIOBJ'" and find the number in the field 'u201ENUMBRANR‟'
and add BIM to the number taken from NUMBRANR.
Goto SNRO T-Code and enter BIM+the number and edit.
From Edit--> Set up Buffering --> Main memory, select the buffering check box and enter approx 500.
This needs to be done for all the master and your dataload performance would improve.

To find only master data process chains and its infopacakges!!!!

Hi,
I have a task to remove the setting in the scheduler of directly assigning to data targets instead of PSA and then to data targets of the whole system!!!
i should not touch though the transactional info packages settings!!
these infopackages must exist in process chains -
how to go about this??

Hi,
If I have understand your point, then you want to change the setting of the infopackages that includes in the Process chain pertaining to the master date.
Then you can change the settings directly in the processing tab.
Or if you don't want to change the settings of the IP s that are in the Process chain,then go to RSA1 >> Select those IP s >> rigt click and copy it.Then you can change the settings there.
You can run each IP manually.Or if you want the same chain just with the changed settings,then copy the chain and put this new IP in place of the old one and schedule the chain.
If your doubts are cleared then kindly assign me some points.

Master Data Process chains failing due to special charecters?

hi experts,
we have done all the master data(FI,SD,LO,QM,PM,MM,PP,PS) and created process chains and transported into production system.
when we run the process chains we are facing lot of issues regarding special charecters.
for example. 0MAT_VEND_ATTR Data source.
MATERIAL VENDOR (field - IDNLF).
'UDGÅET
&''UDGÅR
&''UDGÅET
&''36/5599/LED./FÆLLES
&''SØTRANSPORT &
those are the special charecters are coming when i try to execute through RSKC the above Material Vendors, its giving different special chars for different MATERIAL VENDORS like below.
FÆLLESSØTRANSPORT
04/5160/FORSØGSAFD.
(5150)FORSØGSAFD.
like that there are about 15 master data chains are failing.
due to that reason the below transcation chars are not executing.
please suggest me is there any routine or is there any procedure to take care of unpredicted special charecters loading successfully into BW.
regards
venuscm

I don't think its a global setting problem.
Permit the char in RSKC...
Check with the functional team why they are getting Special char values in the loads. ask them to rectify the special char so that you can extract the same to BW side.
go through the blog links provided earlier in my post...
Check the below link which might be of some use to you,..

Master Data process Chains

Hi All,
I have activated all the required Master Data Datasources in R/3 in which some are delta enabled like Customer and Material(along with Sales and Comp. Code views), some are not delta enabled like Sales Org, Sales Grp etc...and some are text fields like Customer Grp 1-5, Material Grps 1-5 distribution channnel text etc.
Now, I have to create process chains to regularise the loads for this data once we go live.
But, I am not sure, how many process chains do I need to create?
Should I include all the delta enabled ones in one chain and the others in another chain?
Do we need to load the non-delta(i.e full loads) ones also daily?
How about the Text datasources like Cust Grps1-5?
Thanks,
RPK.

I have struggled with some of those same questions, and finally ended up deciding simplicity was important.
My Daily Master Data loads go like this -
-- MetaChain - ZMD_D_METACHAIN - contains 3 subchains, one each for attributes, hierarchies, and texts.
Attributes - ZMD_D_ATTRS ( I don't distinguidh between Full and Delta). I have them all in one chain. I originally thought about having different chains, and decided to have them all in one chain - 6 different threads, all in one PC. This makes it easy to move different loads around if some MD takes longer to load - goal is to have all 6 threads run approx the same amount of time. These 10 threads flow into a Change Run. In the Meta Chain, I have the ZMD_D_ATTRS local chain send out a positive or negative completion e-mail.
I have a few subchains in this one, e.g. I load 0Fund, and then have 4 loads that populate Z attributes of the Fund MD. In this case, I use put these loads in a subchain - first the 0Fund load, followed by the various load of Z attributes. This way I'm sure everything loads in the correct order - not having two concurrent loads to the same MD tha tmight cuase a lock issue. It also helps document the relationships.
Hierarchies - ZMD_D_HIERS. Don't have a lot of them, but I found it cleaner to separate the mfrom the Attrs.
Texts - ZMD_D_TEXTS. I have about 10 threads that each load about 12 texts.
Some have argued to load Texts after Transactions, but it our case, none of these load all that long so I didn't pursue that. I also have a sepate PC to my MD problem children - 0HRP0SITION and 0PERSON whihc seem to have errors on a semi regular basis. Having them in a separate PC - not in the Daily MD MetaChain - means my Daily MD MetaChain rarely has an error and makes it easy to monitor. If its red, I know I have a problem (also received a msg from the PC telling me that), where as if I had a load that frequently failed mixed in, I would have to always check to see if the failure was the Problem Child, or a MD object that doesn't normally cause a problem.
Hope this helps. Wish SAP really provide more guidance on PCs. Ought to have a contest on SDN - Most Creative PCs......

Error while executing master data process chian

hi,
I'm trying to execute Master Data Process Chain in BI 7.0. But i'm getting errors at the DTP process of two info objects. The error message is like "equest 357 is already being processed and Exception CX_RSBK_REQUEST_LOCKED logged."
Can anyone tell the reason and how to resolve this issue?
Thanks
Hima

Hi Hima
Check if there is any other loads, fetching the same Request OR you can goto SM37 and goto Job log and check the status of the JOB... if it is finished, then check the status of the request too.You can repeat the locked request, if the previous req is either successfully completed or failed...wait until the dependent request is finished
just check this and repeat the req.. it should get successful now...

Problems with BPC Export Transaction Data process chain

Hi everybody,
we are trying to implement the procedure "How to Export BPC Transaction Data using a custom process chain " for SAP BPC NW 7.0 and everything seems fine. However, when we execute it from Excel, the package apparently runs well (the message 'IMMEDIATE RUN: The package is running...' appears) but when we go to the watch the package status, the package does not appear in the list and there is not any file exported.
When we go to watch the log of the process chain from NW, the Modify Dynamically step runs wrongly but there is no clue of what could be done to solve it. We have done it again from scratch but we always have the same error.
Any idea out there?
Thanks in advance. Kind regards,
Albert

Hi Rich,
in the end we managed to export data. Our NW administrator created the custom process type wrongly - putting a blank space before ZBPCTXEXP - and now it has been corrected and everything works fine.
Well we have managed to transport applications to one server to another one and to export/import the transactional data.
Is there any doc that explains how to transport process chains from one server to another?
In BPC Opps manual there is not too much information and we should transport quiet a lot of process chains related with Runlogic issues .
Thanks a lot for your help.
Kind regards,
Albert Mas.

Deleting Data/ Process Chains

Hi All,
        I want to delete data from a number of cubes, and also after deleting I want to make sure that no data is to be loaded into these cubes via any process chains that are already present and loading. My Question is by looking at a cube how can I find out if a process chain is doing so?

I found them,. If I do not see process chains does that mean that particular cube is not in process chains?

Error message FH 502 in IDOC GL Account Master Data processing

Hi all:
I am updating the GL Account Master Records, importing generated IDOC´s from the production system, using standard SAP IDOC functions.

Questions on process chains

Hai all,
I have two questions on Process chains.
1. I created a process chain for master data and a process chain for data loads(with ODS and cube). As the Master data has to be loaded first before loading transaction data, can I include the Master data process chain as a local process chain soon after the start process and then only after loading master data, the system proceeds to transaction data?
2. I designed a process chain with the aggreagtion and compression of cube data. I have forgot to check the option delete overlapping requests in the infopackage to load the infocube. I ran the process chain and now there are 2 requests and the duplicate documents. I want to delete the recent request and check the deleting duplicate requests option in info package and re run. The problem is the system is not allowing me to delete the recent request.
I appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks.

Hai Bhanu,
Thanks for the reply. I am sceduling the request for deletion in the Manage infocube> but the request is not getting deleted. Everytime I click refresh, the delete icon disappears and the screen becomes as it was before scheduing the deletion. I checked after sometime, even then the same thing...
I wonder the collpased requests can not be deleted???

Hi
refer to this
CREATION OF PROCESS CHAINS
Process chains are used to automated the loading process.
Will be used in all applications as you cannot schedule hundreds of infopackages manually and daily.
Metachain
Steps for Metachain :
1. Start ( In this variant set ur schedule times for this metachain )
2.Local Process Chain 1 ( Say its a master data process chain - Get into the start variant of this chain ( Sub chain - like any other chain ) and check the second radio button " Start using metachain or API " )
3.Local Process Chain 2 ( Say its a transaction data process chain do the same as in step 2 )
Steps for Process Chains in BI 7.0 for a Cube.

Error in installing process chain from Business Content.

Dear Experts,
I have successfully installed the Technical Content from Business Content and now trying to install Content Master Data process chain for info package for the same but its showing error.
<b>Technical Name for Process Chain : 0TCT_MD_C_FULL_P01</b>
Error after instaling from BI Content : <b>Process AND has no predecessor.</b>
Finally, while checking in RSPC it comes the name of Process Chain but its not showing anything.
Also, one more thing is I am trying to install in development system and if that occurs successfully than transport to production as production directly don't wanted to do.
Thanks in advance.

Process Chain issue-Needs urgent Help

R/3 Master Data Main Chain
Problem Description:
When we trigger the process chain from SM64, the process chain fails at the step as shown below.
There are no logs for the local chain i.e. the local chain fails without linking.
If we manually schedule the local chain it runs successfully.
The error message changed as and when we tried fixing the defects. Each of them with the solutions tried for them is explained below.
ERROR 1:
The error message which we got was as Cannot Activate Job BI_PROCESS_LOADING (return code 8).
Solution tried:
1.     Replicating Data Sources and activating the transfer and communication structures by running the programs RS_COMSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL and RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL.
ERROR 2:
Later we found that the released job was missing for failed local chain.
Solution tried:
1.     We created a new job by copying a previous job.
ERROR 3:
When we re-scheduled the process chain, we got the error message as shown below.
Solution tried:
1.     Deleted all the logs which were in running status.
ERROR 4:
After re scheduling the process chain we are getting the error message as shown below. This is the error message we are getting now.
Solutions Tried:
1.    Saving the variant and reactivating the process chains.
2.     Replicating Data Sources and activating the transfer and communication structures by running the programs RS_COMSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL and RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL.
3.     Changing the scheduling options of the failed local chain to Start using Meta Chain or API from Direct Scheduling.
4.     We searched for locked entries in SM12. There are no locked entries.
5.     We ran attribute change run with variant for info object Profit Center from the following path
    RSA1-> Tools-> Apply Hierarchy/ Attribute Change Run. We created a new variant for the info object.
We still could not find a solution. do let us know if you have any inputs.
Thanks,
Mayuri

Hi All,
Please reply ASAP. Its critical.
We created a new process chain and when we do a check on it,we are getting a warning message.
We just upgraded our Dev box from 3.5 to 7.0. Our master data process chains, which reflect samples delivered by SAP, are giving warnings saying "too many parallel processes" for chosen server. It refers us to note 621400.
I am curious to know if others have run into this, and if they have changed their MD process chains to run in a serial fashion.
Prior to the upgrade, we had no deadlocks with process chains.
Thanks.

List of Info Objects used in a process chain

Hi,
I have a master data process chain and in that process chain, close to about 50 Info objects are included. Rather than checking manually, I would like to know if there is any automated way to get the list of info objects used in a process chain.
Please let me know if there is any table that gives this information.
Thanks & Regards.

following transparent tables store Process Chain related data... there you might get the information you are looking for..
RSEVENTCHAIN       Event Chain Processing Event Table
