Process chain error : Difference in time

Hello All,
Am trying to execute a metachain that loads attributes, texts, hierarchies and then transactional data.But just after the start variant, am getting a runtime error i.e. ABAP/4 Processor: ZDATE_LARGE_TIME_DIFF.
Am not sure of what this ZDATE_LARGE_TIME_DIFF is, but would like to know how can i get rid of this.
The details show "Large time difference between application server and database.
How do I tackel this? Kindly reply.
Thanks n Regards,
KS

Hi Ketki,
Seems that timezone has been changed on the Server at Os/DB/BW server level...
Seek a basis guy help ...
Alternatively you can refer to post
ZDATE_LARGE_TIME_DIFF
Hope that helps.

Common Process chain errors

Hi friends,
Can u please explain cause of below errors in process chain and how to rectify the problem ?
1. Deadlock error.
2. Error in unit conversion
3.Error 1 in update
4.Processing no data
5.Caller 70 missing
6.Idoc not processed completely.
Thanks...
Bala

Hi,
/people/mona.kapur/blog/2008/01/14/process-chain-errors
Deadlock
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/2e/44934257a5c86ae10000000a155106/frameset.htm
Dead Locks
2. Error in unit conversion
\Units of measure
3.Error 1 in update
When Src file is already open or not accessible.
4.Processing no data
theres no data selected after extraction
5.Caller 70 missing
" This error normally occurs whenever BW encounters error and is not able to classify them. There could be multiple reasons for the same
1) Whenever we are loading the Master Data for the first time, it creates SIDs. If system is unable to create SIDs for the records in the Data packet, we can get this error message.
2) If the Indexes of the cube are not deleted, then it may happen that the system may give the caller 70 error.
3)Whenever we are trying to load the Transactional data which has master data as one of the Characteristics and the value does not exist in Master Data table we get this error. System can have difficultly in creating SIDs for the Master Data and also load the transactional data.
4) If ODS activation is taking place and at the same time there is another ODS activation running parallel then in that case it may happen that the system may classify the error as caller 70. As there were no processes free for that ODS Activation.
5) It also occurs whenever there is a Read/Write occurring in the Active Data Table of ODS. For example if activation is happening for an ODS and at the same time the data loading is also taking place to the same ODS, then system may classify the error as caller 70.
6) It is a system error which can be seen under
the Status tab in the Job Over View.
solution:
" If the Master Data is getting loaded for the first time then in that case we can reduce the Data Package size and load the Info Package. Processing sometimes is based on the size of Data Package. Hence we can reduce the data package size and then reload the data again. We can also try to split the data load into different data loads
If the error occurs in the cube load then we can try to delete the indexes of the cube and then reload the data again.
If we are trying to load the Transactional and Master Data together and this error occurs then we can reduce the size of the Data Package and try reloading, as system may be finding it difficult to create SIDs and load data at the same time. Or we can load the Master Data first and then load Tranactional Data
If the error is happening while ODS activation cause of no processes free, or available for processing the ODS activation, then we can define processes in the T Code RSCUSTA2.
If error is occurring due to Read/Write in ODS then we need to make changes in the schedule time of the data loading.
Once we are sure that the data has not been extracted completely, we can then go ahead and delete the red request from the manage tab in the InfoProvider. Re-trigger the InfoPackage again.
Monitor the load for successful completion, and complete the further loads if any in the Process Chain.
6.Idoc not processed completely.
Here the request remains yellow (in process) and with the same details (as seen in the details tab of the monitor) for an abnormally long time. Many-a-times, the port for communication is not open and re-starting the load helps. For long running jobs, it may not be advisable to restart the extraction
Contact the BASIS administrator to push the IDOC.
Thanks

How can i understand the Process Chain management in real time!!!

Hi,
now i am learning BW concepts. now i would like to know the real time scenarios regarding Process chains. can any body help me in this matter?.
thanks,
stikanth.ch

Hi,
A process chain is a defined sequence of interdependent processes required to perform acomplex task in an SAPBW environment. Data maintenance tasks in SAPBW are notrestricted to uploading data. Aggregate rollups, index maintenance, master data and ODS activation, and a variety of other jobs are required to update data, guarantee best-possible performance, and maintain data integrity. Typical SAPBW implementa-tions have complex interdependent networks of jobs in place that run every night, week,or month.Previous releases of SAPBW did not provide an integrated solution for scheduling and monitoring those kinds of job networks. This has changed with the introduction of process chains in release 3.0. Process chains allow you to define complex job networks consisting of standard SAPBW jobs, as well as custom jobs; they support visualizing the job network and centrally controlling and monitoring the processes.

What are the varoius type of process chain errors how we can solve them.

Hi,
I need to work with process chains maintainace , Can any body tell me what are the different type of process chain errors generelly we used to get ,how we can solve them . IF possible please provide me any document also so that i can solve my
abnormal problems for process chain errors.
Thanks in advance .

Hi,
1) Invalid characters while loading: When you are loading data then you may get some special characters like @#$%...e.t.c.then BW will throw an error like Invalid characters then you need to go through this RSKC transaction and enter all the Invalid chars and execute. It will store this data in RSALLOWEDCHAR table. Then reload the data. You won't get any error because now these are eligible chars done by RSKC.
2) IDOC Or TRFC Error: We can see the following error at u201CStatusu201D Screen:Sending packages from OLTP to BW lead to errorsDiagnosisNo IDocs could be sent to the SAP BW using RFC.System responseThere are IDocs in the source system ALE outbox that did not arrive in the ALE inbox of the SAP BW.Further analysis:Check the TRFC log.You can get to this log using the wizard or the menu path "Environment -> Transact. RFC -> In source system".Removing errors:If the TRFC is incorrect, check whether the source system is completely connected to the SAP BW. Check especially the authorizations of the background user in the source system.Action to be taken:If Source System connection is OK Reload the Data.

Failure of infopackage step in process chain - Error in source system.

Hello Experts,
We are experiencing this during the execution of process chain.
All the step for data loads within BW(DSO to DSO, DSO to cube) are failing with error -
- Error in source system
- Error during data selection
Please note that we are 3.5 data flow and thus, data load within BW is through emulated data source and the infopackage. Steps running such infopackages for emulated data source are failing in process chain with error above.
Surprisingly, when I run the infopackage manually out of process chain it runs successful without any error. But when I run through process chain it fails.
Any clue or suggestion? We have already tried doing re-initialization for infopackage.
Appreciate your inputs.
Regards,
PK.

Hi,
When we run data loads thru process chain it will run in background. as per the available background application servers your request will be processed.
as my your during your load time server will be on high load.
please check your system busy schedule and schedule your process chains.
Check Tx - SM50, if you have less application servers, then ask basis to create few more to application servers to process the request at busiest time.
check about increasing parallel processing and default data transfer settings.
go to info package---> menu scheduler--> data settings for default data transfer.
Thanks

PROCESS CHAIN error "Incorrect start date"

hi sap gurus,
I have parent chain in that a newly created meta chain is creating problem.I am getting error in the process chains since two days i am not able to solve this.Can anybody try to help me.
error: Incorrect start date: 00.00.0000; Start time 00:00:00 RSM 847
After that the process chain is turning red,but when i manually execute the process chain its running properly.
Please help me its urgent.

hi gurus,
Its working fine now.
Solution:
first exchange the variant with the smae and then activate and run.After that it will work in the process chain.
Thanks a lot to every body,especially MOHAN KRISHNA,

Process chains: error when including CVC generation process type

hello all !
I have a Pc that loads data from custom extractor into a Icube.
next triggers Generate Characteristic combination which never executes. Status remains active but no "completed succesfully" (yellow triangle) in monitor of pc.
When I run it alone the CVC generation process types executes OK...??!!!
My sequence is Delete Index from cube ---> Load IP --> Atribute change run ---> Create Index --> Delete overlapping request (up to hear loads oK although status never becomes green '??)
final step is a CVC generation + adjust time series process type.
Does any of you know why the error ? and how to help solving it out ?
appreciate all yur comments

Hi Samir,
I guess you can directly go to RSA1->Source Systems.Rt click and Transfer Global Settings then Delete the Red Request and Go to the Particular Process chain and do a Repeat/Repair.
You can try repairing it...
Rest of your question is not clear.... Give me ur number, will call you, then we will discuss

Process Chain Error DBIF_RSQL_INVALID_RSQL

Hi,
One of my process chain has an error.
The PChain has this nodes:
- Start
- Data loader (to ODS)
- Data Transfer Process to ODS
- Activate
- Drop Cube Indexes
- Data Transfer Process to Cube
- Generate the Cube Indexes
but... the process mark an error in the "Data loader".
The error is:
Error: DBIF_RSQL_INVALID_RSQL
Excep. CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB
What Happened?
Error in ABAP Aplication program
The current ABAP program "CL_RSODSO_SEMANTIC_PACKETIZER=CP" had to be terminated because has come across a statment that unfortunately cannot be excecuted.
What can you do?
Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
to process the problem further, contact you SAP system administrator.
using the transaction ST22 for ABAP dump analysis, you can look at and manage termination message and you can also keep them for a long time.
Note which actions and input led to the error.
For further help in handling problem, contact your SAP administrator.
You can use the ABAP dump analysis transaction ST22 to view and manage termination messages, in particular for long term reference.
Error analysis
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class "CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB", was not caught in procedure "FETCH_PACKAGE" "(METHOD)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.
Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
The reason for the exeption is:
the SQL statment generated from the SAP open SQL statment violates a restriction imposed by the underlying database system of the ABAP system.
Posible error causes:
- The maximum size of SQL statment was exceeded
- the statment contains too many input variables.
- to input data requires more space than is available.
The same process chain, is running in DEV, and not has errors. Run fine.
I hope. you can help me.
Thanks

Ricardo,
After reading your problem description it is clear that, the issue is in DataLoader process(ETL) and not process chain,
Description and Solution: RSQL Rrror: 13 usually indicates that some aspect of the database is violated.
One of the key reason could be the input data requires more space than is available in the system.
I'll recommend you to check system log in SM21
Also check the developer trace for relevant work process using ST11
Another reason could be dynamic select-statement (select-options table) which is filled (excessive) during runtime. Check with program developer and modify program to get a shorter statement or split the selection condition. Also from tuning standpoint I would recommend to modify following parameter,
dbs/io_buf_size
Let me know if this helps.

BI Process Chain - Error DTP

Hi Friends
I have a Question regarding executing error DTP.
We are going live next month. In a metachain we are loading 3 master data process chains and one transaction data process chain and the meta chain is a daily load.
There are duplicate records in the error stack which ended the process chain with errors and also failed the next day load as the duplicate records in the error stack were not fixed. And its a daily master data load triggered in one of the process chain.
I had fixed the records in error stack and enabled handle duplicate records setting in error DTP and tried to save it.
It prompted a message
     "Note, for time-dependent data the source field
      containing DATETO information must not be selected
      in the semantic DTP key."
[do i need to change the handle duplicate record setting for the main DTP also?] I need to execute this error DTP and it should execute the remaining pending/cancelled processes in that process chain.
It should not trigger further loads of the process chains following this process chain even if I manually execute the error DTP. Because the following process chains were successful as there were no dependencies between the process chains.
even though i guess sometimes it happens that it triggers further loads in the process chains for some reason which are not dependent.
Good answers will be definitely rewarded.
Thanks
Lavanya...

Hi,
This is an information message. Go ahead and enable the duplicate key handling flag and then execute the error DTP.
That should load the data successfully.
Cheers,
Kedar

Process chain error aleremote is locked

hi to all,
i got errors in process chain. the message asks me to go to environment>rfc transaction >in data warehouse
when i do that it says aleremote is locked. but when i look in sm12 there is no lock entry
can u please help me

If it's happened during ODS load, check the flag for 'post data to datatarget automatically' in the maintenance of your ods. If it is checked, uncheck it.
Also you can try repeating the failed step after some time.
If it's a failed load step then you need to delete the failed request first and then have to take necessary actions.
You can execute chain from where it has failed we have SAP standard program to do this.
RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH in se38. It will ask log id, Chain,Instance, Variant, status we give as 'G' the chain can understand that the previous process has completed and the next process may continue.
Thanks..

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
