Problem with triggering process chain

Hi
We have a remote process chain that calls a process chain in another system.The process chain in the other system is not getting triggered with the remote chain.
We have 3 such remote chains and we are facing such a problem with only one of them.
The process chain in the other system has a start variant which gets triggered( i suppose) and gives an instance id...the next step in the process chain is to load data into a ODS.Now this step remains yellow forever.When i manually try to schedule this step it gives me records and the request in the monitor screen turns green.But the process chain step continues to remain yellow.
What can be a way out for triggering the process chain or where could the problem be?
Please help
Thanks,
Suchi

Hi Suchitra,
Even though ur process seems to be in yellow your data loading may be completed and the reason for it may be the delay in activation of ODs by ur PC.
For your information please go through the below infm provided in SAp Library
Note when loading into an ODS object and for the subsequent, event-controlled update:
If you switched on the automatic activation in the ODS maintenance or administration, the monitor status for the request remains yellow after the load was successfully completed. Nevertheless, the subsequent processing for the InfoPackage is started, because the loading process is successfully completed.

Problem with a process chain transport

Hi all,
I have a problem with a process chain transport, I transport it but when I see the changes in testing environment I dont see it, I did it four times but nothing happen and I dont have errors.
Can anybody tell me how to transport a process chain.
Thanks.

Hi Federico,
When you tranport Process Chains, initially chains will be available under "Not Asigned" node in RSPC Transaction. The transported chains wont be get highlighted automatically. Manually need to open the chain in update mode and activate it on Quality.
Hope it will help you to resolve the problem.

Problem with the Process chain

Hi,
I created a Process chain and moved to Q for testing. The transport was failed because some objects are locked in BQ system. I unlocked them and moved the TR again. Now the transport was successful but the changes to the process chain are not reflecting in the Q system. There are no errors in the transport log but we have some warning messages which can be ignored. What could be the reason?
Thanks

Yes, When I get into the change mode I can see the changes. Thanks a lot for your reponse.
Full Points awarded.
Thanks again.

Problem with XSQLRequest.process

Problem with XSQLRequest.process:
I'm trying to run XSQL files using XSQLRequest.process. I'm working on the chapter 3 examples in Muench's book and got FAQXML.xsql running okay but have had problems with: FAQhtml.xsql BTW I am calling them from a different directory and am using 9iAS under win2K SP3.:
I've fixed errors such as:
End tag does not match start tag 'img'.
by adding </img>
and:
End tag does not match start tag 'META'.
by removing the <head> section from the xsl.
But now i've got:
XML parse error at line 2, char 1
Expected 'EOF'.
and don't have a clue.
Some questions I have are:
--Why don't I get these errors when I run the same files from Internet Explorer?
--Where is the intermediate XML file?
--How will I get HTML output?
I'd appreciate any help you could suggest.
Peter.
Here is the .xsql and some of the .xsl:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="http://localhost/ch03/FAQ-In-HTML.xsl"?>
<xsql:include-xsql href="FAQ.xsql" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql"/>

etc...

XSQL version is 1.0.2.0.
Well, in answer to your import question, yes. Xerces can import Xerces documents properly. Thus if we use Xerces importNode on a document parsed/created using Xerces' DOM implementation, the attribute values stay.
We are using Xerces because it is the foundation of our infrastructure layer (which is partly because it's used in Catalina).
Question. Is it possible that XSQLParserHelper which, as you say, uses an instance of oracle.xml.parser.v2.DOMParser to parse the document, is having trouble with different versions of DOM? I ask because we've noticed that to use Catalina and have its class loader to function successfully, we had strip all the DOM classes from xmlparserv2.jar
importNode snippit ...
public void service(CioServletRequest req, CioServletResponse resp) throws ServletException {
DomResponse respm = resp.createDomResponse();
Document dbdoc = respm.getDocument();
XSQLRequest req = new XSQLRequest( pageUrl );
ByteArrayOutputStream ostream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
req.process(params, ostream, new PrintWriter(System.err));
String s = new String(ostream.toByteArray());
Document retDoc = respm.parseDocument(s);
dbdoc.appendChild(dbdoc.importNode(retDoc.getDocumentElement(), true));
Hope this helps.

Relating a Request Number with its Process chain

Hi experts!
Do you know if there is anyway (with tables) of relating a "Request number" with its Process chain?
Thank you very much in advance!

Hello
I guess there is no direct way, but you can get it by following:
1) From table RSREQDONE, you can get infopak name by giving a request no.
2) Then from table RSPCCHAIN, For Type = 'LOADING', VARIANTE field give the Infopackage name and it will give u the PC.

Problem with AND processer in process chains

Hi friends,
In BI 7.0, when creating a process chain by linking 2 DTPs with AND processor,
two AND processor are showing.
Can anyone please suggest how to get only one AND processor after combining also.
babu

Hi Babu,
You can remove one AND process step from the design.
(Right click on the process step and Remove Process)
Connect two DTPs with the remaining AND process step, Save and Activate.
This will solve your problem.

How to stop a triggered process chain

Hi,
Does anyone know how to stop a process chain? It was accidentally triggered twice and we need to stop it. Thanks.

Hi,
There r 2 ways to kill the job.
One is using transation RSMO locate the job and display the status tab double click on the yellow light that is shown on the line total, a pop will come 'set overall status ' is displayed select the desired status that is red and save it. Then return to the monitor page and select the header tab double ckick on the data target right click and then goto 'manage',there should be request sitting there probably with yellow lights , highlight the line with the faulty request click the delete button then click refresh button.
Second is goto SM37 and click on the active selection and enter the jobname and then click excute the particulr job should appear highlight the jobname then click on the stop iconthat appears on the taskbar( 3 rd from left)
hope it is clear.

BI Admin Cockpit - Problem in activating Process Chains

Hello,
We're trying to activate the content for BI Admin Cockpit.
While activating the process chains, we get a "red" message as
mentioned below.
"Object '0PAK_5JTN7F5HTP45CGZ04PQTMCNTI' (ISIP) of type 'InfoPackage'
is not available in version 'D'
Message no. RSO252"
OSS message 966131 suggests that "The InfoPackages mentioned are shadow
InfoPackages and the message is unnecessary because there should not
have been a search for the package at all." and we should apply the
correction (as part of SPS10) for this purpose.
We are currently on SP11 but still having the same issue and hence not
able to activate the process chains for BI Admin Cockpit.
Thanks for your help with this.
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
We had the same issue. You must have one of following:-
BI_CONT 702, Support pack 7
or
BI_CONT 703, Support Pack 4
Once you get either of above, you will not have that problem. But you might have some problem in process chains because of roll up of aggregate in delta PC. Just ignore that and you will be OK...( This problem is because there is no agg. defined and PC is trying to do roll up..which make no sense and hence there is error)
Also refer to OSS note 965386
This is my first answer to SDN...so assign my first points..:)
Thanks,
Anil

Event Triggered process chain

Hi Experts,
We have a meta chain which contains two local chain in sequance and consuming 10 hours to complete
Process Chain 1
Process Chain 2
We have used the events to trigger process chain 2 only when it meet certain condition and modified the meta chain as
Process Chain 1
Abap Prg to trigger Process chain 2
But now the meta chain just consume 4 hours to complete even though process chain 2 is on progres.
This is giving wrong update to the users as the load is completed.
Is it possible to retain the status of the meta chain as in progress untill the process chain 2 triggered by event gets complets.
Regards
Suresh Kumar

Hi Suresh,
when you are using event as a process in the metachain, it checks if the event ran succesfullly or not.
once the event is succesfull(event - triggering of the process chain but not completion), the step turns green.
so follow below procedure.
1)in the abap program, instead of triggering the process chain,write a program which raises an exceptio if the condition you required is satisfied so that the step becomes red.
use the proicess chain as next step in the process chain and conect this program to processchain step with th condition failure.
Hope this helps,
Srinath.

Problem with a process Flow (RPE-02062 )

Hi Federico,
When you tranport Process Chains, initially chains will be available under "Not Asigned" node in RSPC Transaction. The transported chains wont be get highlighted automatically. Manually need to open the chain in update mode and activate it on Quality.
Hope it will help you to resolve the problem.

Problem in activating Process chain in Quality after transport

Hi All,
We have moved a set of process chain to Quality system.
When tried to activate the Process chain it is showing error in DTP.
The DTP name is same as in the Dev system.
So, we tried moving the DTP alone in another transport request.
Still the error exists. We also tried moving the process chain again.
We had tried importing only the structure and also the entire flow again.
Nothing worked.
Please suggest some solution.
Thanks in Advance,
Geetha

Thanks for yor reply.
Suman,
I have checked the Object Changeablity now in Dev system, I found it like Not changable for DTPA.
The DTP from DSO to Cube is fine, but we have problem with the DTP from DataSource to DSO.
Also, in the dev system when i clicked on Object Changeablity I get a popup like "System can be changed; settings not necessary".
Please suggest me like what must be done.
Prashantk & Arvind,
We imported the Process Chain along with the DTP first and we faced the problem.
So we imported the DTP alone again, but still we had the problem.
Again we imported the Process Chain after importing the DTPs.
So what i feel is DTPs must be there in the Quality, but why we have the problem persisting.
That too only for DTP from Data Source to DSO but not for the DTP from DSO to Cube.
Regards,
Geetha

Problem kicking off process chains using Tivoli Job Scheduling

In our pre-production BW system testing,when the process chains are being kicked off through Tivoli,they are not working.
We dont get issues when the chains are run directly in BW,without using Tivoli.
The jobs with 'after event' RSPROCESS setting that kick off next node on each node's completion,are not leaving out a 'copy' after a scheduled run.
So in the next run from Tivoli,the dependency job isnt there in scheduled status,which fails the chain.
We tried manually copying the dependency jobs on the nodes.Doing this,chain does kick off from Tivoli.But again jobs dont leave copies and next run from
Tivoli fails.We tried using 'periodic job' setting.This leaves copies of job.But then why is BW able to copy out and kick off jobs,while this isnt happening when kicked off through Tivoli.
A node in the process chain is BLUE when it has a scheduled job ready in sm37,but turns GREY(no scheduled job is there in sm37),once the Tivoli kicks off chains after the manual copy.
We suspect this either to be a authorization problem or an issue with how it works when kicked off through Tivoli.Process chain 'context' is somehow not created when it runs through Tivoli.
Anyone seen such an issue before?Suggestions are welcome..
cheers,
Vishvesh

Hi Manfred,
The chain does get kicked off from Tivoli.
But the job fails in Tivoli as..when it tries to hand over execution to the 1st local chain in the 'meta chain' the required job isnt there in scheduled status,with the 'after event' RSPROCESS dependency set on it.
cheers,
Vishvesh

Loading from PSA with different process chains at a different time

Hi,
We currently have an issue regarding loading the same data from 2 separate Process Chains from the same datasource at a different time.
Simplified what is happening :
Process Chain 1:
Step 1a = Load 2LIS_13_VDITM into ODS "A"
Step 1b = Load 0FI_GL_4 into ODS "B"
At a later time, (PC1 is ready) =>
Process Chain 2:
Step 1 = Load ODS "A" to ODS "C"
Step 2 = Load 0FI_GL_4 (from PSA) to ODS "C"
Because of dependencies, step 2 from PC2 has to be loaded AFTER Step 1 (with activation) from PC2.
We cannot change Process Chain 1.
What i want to do is load the data from 0FI_GL_4 only to PSA in Process Chain 1 and pick it up again in Process Chain 2. This functionality is available in NW2004S, but not in our version BW 3.0B.
Does anyone have an idea how to do this ?
Thanks,
Pascal

Hi Dinesh,
Thank you for your quick answer.
The problem is i cannot change PC1, but 0FI_GL_4 is loaded with the option into PSA and then immediatly to the target. So data is available in the PSA.
When I try to load data from PSA into ODS "C" in PC2, i get an error saying that the belonging infopackage (from PC1) is not available in this PC and thus cannot be loaded from PSA.
Regards,
Pascal
