  • Masterdata  Process Chain Help

    I was asked to complete the  master data process chain for whole of finance...its all business content?
    How do I proceed.....do  I need to go check manually each and every infoobject if it has masterdata?
    Any easy way out?

    Hi ,
    You need to create a process chain and have steps to load each and every Info Object in FI area.
    Basically make a list of all FI master data Info Objects and when you create a process chain create a start variant (ideally schedule it , during low data extract from r/3 to BW ) and also get an approval for the load scheule say daily, weekly , monthly etc.
    Then attach the Execute InfoPackage process type for each info object and link them all. So it will load step by step all Master data Info Objects of FI.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers

  • Process Chain Help - Delete Overlapping requests

    Dear Experts,
    I have a requitement where I want to delete the ' previous days' request from the cube. This has to be from the data coming from only one DSO.
    I can use the Delete overlapping request process type but I want to know how.
    And again, this has to be only for the current month.I want to delete the overlapping requests of current month i.e now since I am in April I want to delete only the April requests. When I am in  month May I dont want to delete april request anymore.
    In other words I want to delete the april request until April 30th. On May 1st I dont want to delete the april 30th request. On may 1st it shouldn't delete anything. On May 2nd it should delete the May 1st request.
    Can anyone help me with this.
    Thanks,
    KK

    Hi KK,
    If I have understood you correctly, you mean to say your cube is getting loaded from various Datasources and you want to delete the requests only for a particular Datasource and not for others.
    Please correct me if i am wrong.
    If I am right ! Then on the window "Delete Request from Infocube after update" you can "Delete Existing Requests - > Is current month" and on the bottom of that screen you can see a checkbox for Request Selection Through Routine. Check this and you can simply write a routine to do the deletion for only requests loaded from a particular datasource.
    Hope it helps.

  • Help me to Create this Process Chain

    Hi Gurus,
    We have 3 Process chains,
    1) Region 1
    2) Region 2
    3) Region 3
    These three process chains were start at differt times and end time will depends upon the load of data. Now i want to do some manual calculations after the successful execution of this chains. So i have written three ABAP programs to do that calculations for 3 chains.
    My scenerio is to create a new chain only so I have created a new chain with Start variant -> Decision variant -> 3 Program variants (For 3 chains)
    Now i want to write the condition in decision variant to attach the respective program variants below it. ie,
    Start -> Decision (Condition for successful execution of Chain Region 1) -> Program Variant 1
                 Decision (Condition for successful execution of Chain Region 2) -> Program Variant 2
                 Decision (Condition for successful execution of Chain Region 3) -> Program Variant 3
    So i don know what exact logic to write in Decision variant...Please help me here...

    HAI ,
    A process chain is a sequence of processes that are scheduled to wait in the background for an event. Some of these processes trigger a separate event that can, in turn, start other processes. It looks similar to a flow chart. You define the list of Infopackages / DTPs that is needed to load the data, say delta or Full load. Then you schedule the Process chain as hourly, daily, monthly, etc, depending on the requirement 
    process chains for which info providers ?? i mean to say... for cube or? DSO?
    ok now below i explained for DSO... try it out it will work.. 100%
    Step 1: Go to RSPC transaction. Click on Create. Give Process chain name and Description.  
    Step 2:  Give the Start process name and description and click on Enter  
    Note: Each process chain should start with a Start Process  
    Step 3: The next screen will show the Scheduling options.  
    There are two options:
    Direct Scheduling:
    Start Using Meta Chain or API  
    In my example I have chosen Direct Scheduling as I am processing only one chain i.e DSO. Click on u201CChange Selectionsu201D  
    In the below screen shot, you can give the scheduling details i.e the Immediate, Date& time etc. and click on SAVE  
    The Screen shot below indicates that we have started the process. 
    Step 4:
    Click on the icon process types as shown in the below figure. You will get a list of options.
    In my example I am scheduling for DSO. To process we need to have InfoPackage, DTPu2019s for the corresponding DSO
    Open the tree Load Process and Post Processing, We need to drag and drop u201CExecute InfoPackageu201D  
    Step 5: Once you drag and drop the u201CExecute infopackageu201D we get the below Popup. We need to keyin the Infopackage name. To do this click on F4 and chose your Infopackage and click on ENTER
    Step 6: Save + Activate and Execute the Process.

  • Help! about process chain execution status

    hi:
    we nearly have one problem about the process chain execution status,
    when error occured during  process chian execution, we fixed it in time,
    however, even the error repaired, its status still showed yellow, and this
    stop the subsequent process to excute.
    Any body who can provide some help to solve this problem? thanks in advance
    and looking forward to one reply.

    Hi ,
    Try this method
    Open the messages of a failed step by right clicking on it and selecting 'display messages'.
    In the opened popup click on the tab 'Chain'.
    In a parallel session goto transaction se16 for table rspcprocesslog and display the entries with the following selections:
    1. copy the variant from the popup to the variante of table rspcprocesslog
    2. copy the instance from the popup to the instance of table rspcprocesslog
    3. copy the start date from the popup to the batchdate of table rspcprocesslog
    Press F8 to display the entries of table rspcprocesslog.
    Now open another session and goto transaction se37. Enter RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH as the name of the function module and run the fm in test mode.
    Now copy the entries of table rspcprocesslog to the input parameters of the function module like
    described as follows:
    1. rspcprocesslog-log_id -> i_logid
    2. rspcprocesslog-type -> i_type
    3. rspcprocesslog-variante -> i_variant
    4. rspcprocesslog-instance -> i_instance
    5. enter 'G' for parameter i_state (sets the status to green).
    Now press F8 to run the fm.
    Now the actual process will be set to green and the following process in the chain will be started and the chain can run to the end.

    Regars, \
    Harry...

    Yes, as rightly said you need to run the previous delta before updating new records in the latest request. If possible de-schedule the chains for a while, delete the old deltas (assuming you are using flexible updates?) and try to repeat the loads manually & proceed to activate & schedule once the delta has finished processing. If you still think this is an issue related to idocs processing, you can do the re-processing, provided they do not create fresh batch of idocs in the source system. You can re-process the idocs both inbound & out bound using reports like RBDAGAIN (But again, use extreme caution on these!). Please refer the #scn wiki on http://goo.gl/njVLS for more information on the idocs. For reprocessing please check this http://goo.gl/8aAcz. Thanks.

  • Info Spoke - Process Chain - OS Command usage help

    I am new to BW. My requirement is to extract the master data off of BW data targets on a weekly basis and ftp the files onto a different server.
    To meet this requirement, I am planning to create InfoSpoke(s), put it in a Process chain and using the OS Command ftp the files to different server.
    Is this the right way to do it or are there any better ways? If it is, I need help on where to give the target server name, user_id and PSW in the OS Command variant of Process Chain.
    Also, is it possible to schedule a Infospoke directly from the scheduler (Auotsys...) and still execute weekly/monthly?
    Thanks for your help in advance
    RK

    That's correct.  You'll define the command under the general services tab in the process chain transaction (It's labeled OS Command and is a silver circle thing with a blue dot in it).
    When you drag it into the process chain it will ask for a varient.  In the System Command field for this varient is where you'll define the actual command. (little pencil button next to it).  At this point you can call a script that does the copy or call an actual command that does the copy. 
    Might be easier to control with a script that does the work but if you want to call rcp/scp, the os command will be rcp and parameters will be the filename, etc.  If it's a script then you'll just enter the name of the script in the os command field.
    Hope this helps.

  • Very Urgent-Pls help*Process chain triggered automatically when transported

    Hi All,
    We have got some issue.
    We have a Process chain, started set to immediate becuase its used in meta chain.
    When ever we transport the Chain, its getting triggerred in the Target Client automatically.
    We can prevent this, by keeping the process chain starter as "Event Based". But, as its a local process chain, it must be set to Immediate.
    Please help.
    Cheers,
    Nisha

    Hi Siggi,
    Thanks for this reply.
    Scheduling the Local chain to run in future and then changing it after import, i think, is a work around.
    Iam sure, there must be some thing to stop this trigger.
    And, We have tried Changing the Chains to run Via Meta chain, but, the problem is after the Transport, the local chain can't be triggered on its own using "immediatly". If we try to change it, it'll prompt for a Transport.
    Please help.
    Cheers,

    Hi Varma,
        I am assuming you are using generic extractor using function module.
    Create a z-control table which maintains ranges 250K records. In future use can even change the range if you want .
    below is piece of code from function module
    Auxiliary Selection criteria structure
      data: l_s_select type srsc_s_select.
      data : l_lines type i.
    Maximum number of lines for DB table
      statics: s_s_if type srsc_s_if_simple,
    counter
              s_counter_datapakid like sy-tabix,
              counter type i.
    Initialization mode (first call by SAPI) or data transfer mode
    (following calls) ?
      if i_initflag = sbiwa_c_flag_on.
    Check DataSource validity
        case i_dsource.
          when  <check your datasource name>
           when others.
            if 1 = 2. message e009(r3). endif.

    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/87/13843b74f7be0fe10000000a114084/frameset.htm
    I understand the help topics are difficult to find...
    Some tips:
    - use only local objects (create infopackages localy in the production client to build the process chains, so you don't have to transport them).
    - the secret for good process chain is organization. Separate texts, attributes and transactional data in separated process chains. Use a "master" global process chain to call the sub-process chains.
    - careful assure the necessary precedences. Make sure you load attribues and activate the master data before the transactional data.
