Process chain Activation Variant failed

Dear Gurus
In BI7 executed a process chain,in this ods activation is in 4 th step,turned in to red,i repeated and got executed.
Questions:
1.I checked in DSO all data got activated,only in process chain showed red status....how it is possible.
2.Eventhough 4th step turned in to red,below all (5,6,7...th steps) went through,how it happened,if some variants failed means next variant should not get executed?
3.When i did repeat it thrown ABAP debugging screen,i executed and went through well,ods activation variant became green.
When i was trying to see display message,it is empty no error message.
Root cause analysis i should give...pls how and where to do the analysis.....
Thanks and regards
T.Gadhatharan

Hi,
1.I checked in DSO all data got activated,only in process chain showed red status....how it is possible.
In the ODS Activation Process, is there any other ODSs existed for activation?
2.Eventhough 4th step turned in to red,below all (5,6,7...th steps) went through,how it happened,if some variants failed means next variant should not get executed?
After the 4th Step, the further processes executed means, they might have put the settings as Success or failure of the predecessor process it can through the further 5th, 6th and 7th processes.
3.When i did repeat it thrown ABAP debugging screen,i executed and went through well,ods activation variant became green.
Check for short dumps ST22.
Hope it helps.

Why process chain activation is taking more time?

Hi BW Gurus,
I am going to activate the process chain, but it takes more time to activate the process chain . What may be the reasons ?
Regards,
Raju

Hi,
Process chain activation becomes slow due to the following reasons.
1)Large no of entities in RSPCCHAIN Table i.e, there is lot of process chains and very large process chains.
2)There is a missing index for the RSPCCHAIN Table.
Solution for this problem is we have to create an index for the following fields of the RSPCCHAIN table.
EVENT_GREEN
EVENT_PGREEN
EVENT_RED
EVENT_PRED
Still if you want further clarification on this , Refer the following sap notes.

How to run change run in process chain when it fails

HI All,
How to run attribute change run in process chain when it fails. Give me the procedure with clear description. Is there is any difference with 3.x versions in running this.
Thanks,
Pratap Reddy

Hi Pratap.
If BI Accelerator is not being implemented by ur company, in that case if change run fails u'll proceed by 'Repeat' process option as usual we do in 3.x.
If BIA is exists, in this scenario u can not repeat as we do in 3.x. U have to drop the indexes on cubes effecting that change run and run the change runs. Once it is finished recreate BIA Indexes on cubes.

In Process Chain Activation of DSO is falling

Hello Techies,
In the Process chain the activation of DSo is falling but when I go and check the in the Manage DSo.
The Data is activated and available for reporting.
I dont know why in the Process chain the activation of DSO is falling ?
Regards,
Quaraishi

Hi
It depends on background job resource availability at the time of DSO Activaton. Also check the settings of the variant DSO Activation process for each DSO activation and make it separate with number of processes to 2 for activation.
Save the changes and activate it. Should work correctly now.
Thanks,
Sunil

Process chain program variant will not change from yellow...

Hello,
<b>Problem:</b>
I have a process chain that has two branches with 3 process chain variants on each leg in a parallel configuration. The process chain variants run different program variants. I am using variant object called "ABAP Program with Success/Failure " which can have a yellow, green, or red status and has status arrows that can be either red or green that connect to other process chain variants. The program executed with these variants is a customized BPS UPC_BUNDLE_EXECUTE program. When I run this PC the first variant on each leg usually hangs indefinitley on the yellow status. In the Backg tab log (double click PC variant in Log View) I can see the various SQL code that was ran. The last line of the log is an SQL-END:... Sometimes it will get past the first 2 varaints and hang on the next set of 2. Other times it will just hang on the last variant of one leg. It is very sporadic.
<b>What I have observed and tried:</b>
If I check my SM51 for the server the chain is running on I can see that the program in question is not running. If I run the same program through SE38 that runs via a PC variant it runs sucessfully in an appropriate amount of time. If I kill the process that has been running indefinitley through SM51 the process chain variant will go from a yellow status to a red as expected.
I changed they way I ran the programs from running in parallel in 2 legs to running all of them in one leg serially. That did not work. At least one program variant will hang on the yellow status.
I replaced all the variants using "ABAP Program with Success/Failure" to "ABAP Program" which has a red/green status but no red or green arrows, but black coming out of the variant forcing it to move down the chain on a sucess or failure. The process chain variants also hung in the yellow status using the "ABAP Program" variant.
I have tried starting the process chain using both "Direct Scheduling" with "Immediate" and "After Event." I have also kicked it off using "Start Using Meta Chain or API" so it was functioning as a sub process chain. Programs were still yellow in every case without changing to red or green.
I created new process chain variants for every single program/variant that I am using. Still no luck.
I have tried removing the chain from the schedule and re-activating and re-running and still no luck.
Thanks in advance,
Gary Martins

Process chain activation : 0 c hains were selected

Hi all
I have scheduled process chains in production.
Because one of the metachain is showing error while loading infopackage,in the production I have created a new infopackage and added it to the chian.Then activated the metachain.
But when i was trying to activate the main chain it showing message"0 chains were selected"
As a result when i scheduled the chain the old meta chain comes into picture instead of the modified chain.
ERROR MESSAGE
0 Chains Were Selected
Message no. RSPC031
Diagnosis
Specifying process chain ID 'ZN_0MATERIALATTR, type V2&', and variant '' has resulted in the selection of 0 process chains. The selection has been called without confirmation by the user. This means that the user was unable to make a selection.
System Response
The function is terminated.
Procedure
There is porbably an error in the program. Look for corresponding notes.
Please let me know how to solve this issue.
Thanks,
harika.

Hi harika,
Looks like the new meta chain was not in activated state....
Was the meta chain active and scheduled?
Is the meta chain running for the first time?
Also check the scheduling options how the Meta process chain is triggered?
if so , Make sure the event exist in the new meta chain. this may be causing the error.
if you had changed and created a new meta chain try to activate the new meta chain once and schedule it again and check.
Have you transported the PC or created in Production directly?
if transported from dev to prod check the log if there are any errors?
Also check if the below s note helps you
Note 1323015 - Correction: RSPC031 during transport of metachains

Process Chain e-mail fails

Hello.
I have e-mail messages being sent via Process Chains when the chains complete. It's easy to set up and it works fine for....but for some reason it is not working for my Cost Center process chain. I tried deleting the process variant and re-creating it, but that did not work. Again, e-mail messages go out for other cubes and process chains. Any thoughts on why it does not work for this one?
Thank you.

The user-id under which this process-chain runs shall have an internet mail-id associated with it.
You can set the trace on in SCOT, and then check the error as to why mail-send fails.

Iin process chain master dataload failed

Error when sending data request
Diagnosis
The request IDoc could not be sent to the source system using RFC.
System Response
There is an IDoc in the Warehouse outbox that did not arrive in the ALE inbox of the source system.
Further analysis:
Check the TRFC log.
You can access this log using the wizard or menu path "Environment -> Transact. RFC -> In Data Warehouse".
Error handling:
In particular, check the authorizations for the background user in BI.
main problem is this is not occuring daily .only in sundays it is failing with this particular error.
please help me providing a clear solution
advance thanks

May be there are some RFC connection issue during Sunday?
This might be due to Basis activity to clean up the failed logs and the other acttivities...
So check with your basis to get the proper status.
The only thing what you do is that you need to get thedetails of their activities and timings and accordingly you need to change the loading timings of the process chains.
Hope this helps..

Error in process chain activation

HI
I am learning on 3.0b,(on my pc) while using process chains, at the time of activating the process chain it is giving the following error "JOB BI_PROCESS_PSAPROCESS COULD NOT BE SCHEDULED, TERMINATION WITH RETURN CODE 8". Why am getting this error, is there anything wrong with my system or software or there any mistake in activating process chain" (what ever may be the process type i use, i am getting this error), plz help me.
thanks

Hi Ganesh,
The possible reason for that error is the User type of the background user. Please check out OSS note 511475 which talks about this problem and possible solution. I have used this earlier.
You can see this for info on how to make the change:

Process Chain Data load fail /send email is not woking

Hello Experts,
I have created a process chain for daily data load. And created a message variant to send an email if the data load fials, but it's not working. I am not sure what I am missing. Here are the step I did...
1. Right click on the Info Package in the process chain and select Create Message, select errors radio button and then created new variant.
2. In the variant screen, clicked on Maintain Recipient list and enter the Recipient names and mail options like express mail, send copy etc there and then saved.
Didn't select any under REcip type. Not sure whether it's needed.
I greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks
Ram

Thanks a lot.

did you configure the Basis process to send external emails and the automatic output process?
You could see this in tx SCOT
If there´s any record in tree (SAP SERVER)->INT->SMTP
Here.... if is not configured the automatic output you can manually send the emails.....
If this doesn´t works you need to talk to your basis support for the email basis configuration....

New Process Chain Activation

When a new process is transported to qa or prod it has to be MANUALLY activated one time before the NEW: prefix is removed and the chain can be used by a meta chain.
Is there a configuration setting or some way to have the chain AUTOMATICALLY activated when it is transported to qa or prod?
Thanks,
Mike S.

Hi Mike,
Welcome to SDN!!
You would need to do that to enable the schedule the process chain. I did notice an OSS Note or some document which stated the settings usinh which we can avoid this. I dont have access to my documents now. Would search and post.
Meanwhile all the posts discussed here talk about manual activation:
Process chain scheduling in QA
Process Chain Status is new after transport to QA

Hi Guys.
I have a process chain and a start variant, but then when I transported. It seems not be transported the variant. CAn you please help me with this?
Regards,
Iván.

check in forum, you will find lot of threads...
1. Goto RSA1 --> Transport Connection.
2. select objects by Object Types.
3. You can see "Process Chain"
4. double click on it. inthat select your process chain. go with transfer selection.
5. Your process chain will transferred to right hand side. check the Grouping options on the right side tool bar. go with "Necessary Objects" under Grouping.
6. you can see all the list od variants in that. go with transport icon on right side tool bar. you need to make sure all process variants collected in this.
