Process Chain in "Undefined Status"

I have a custom Process Type (ABAP with a return code) that runs in a chain. The ABAP decides if a day is Monday, Tuesday, etc.
If it is not a particular day, it errors out, per the code below.
However, the chain variant is in an "Undefined" status, rather than a "Canceled" status. This means that the chain is still active. Every time I review the chain, I get a message saying "Status change of process zz_monday. Save status and trigger events if appropriate". Only upon clicking "yes" does the variant go to a canceled status.
How can I force the chain to a canceled status without user interaction?
IF g_subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE e162(00) WITH 'Status' 'Red'.
ELSE.
MESSAGE i162(00) WITH 'Status' 'Green'.
ENDIF.

Process chain in Yellow status

Hi All,
We have a strange situation.
We are having a meta chain with 2 local chains.all the steps in the local chain completed successfully. But the local chain status is in yellow, thats the reason the below local chain has not started.This is happening from 2 days.
We are in BI7 and in Patch 18.
Please suggest on this.
Thanks in advance

Hi JS,
once check the infopackages, DTPs and other process steps are activated or not. if not, activated all those steps.
this will resolve your problem.

Process Chain Status is Red even though all processes are successful.

I implement ABAP Code by using standard function module "RSPC_CHAIN_START" for execute process chain and return status of process chain after execute completely as following code:
Execute Process Chain
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPC_CHAIN_START'
EXPORTING
    I_CHAIN             = I_CHAIN
    I_SYNCHRONOUS       = I_SYNCHRONOUS
IMPORTING
   E_LOGID             = P_LOGID.
If sy-subrc = 0.
    gt_status = 's'.
    WHILE gt_status = 's'.
Get Status of Process Chain
      CALL FUNCTION 'RSPC_API_CHAIN_GET_STATUS'
      EXPORTING
      i_chain              = I_CHAIN
      i_logid              = P_LOGID
     IMPORTING
      E_STATUS             = gt_status
      E_MESSAGE            = P_MESSAGE.
Status G or F - Report that the Chain is Successfully Completed.
Status A - The chain is Currently running
Status R or X - Report that the chain has ended with Errors.
    CASE gt_status.
    WHEN 'A'.
Process chain is running
      gt_status = 's'.
      P_MESSAGE = ''.
    WHEN OTHERS.
Process chain is completed
      exit.
    ENDCASE.
    IF gt_status = 's'.
       WAIT UP TO 2 SECONDS.
    ENDIF.
ENDWHILE.
Display Message
IF gt_status = 'G' or gt_status = 'F'.
    MESSAGE i162(00) WITH P_MESSAGE.
Else.
    MESSAGE e162(00) WITH P_MESSAGE.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.
From above code, when execute this function module, sometimes status of process chain is shown as canceled 'X', therefore, output of this function module is shown as "The process chain is canceled". When monitor process chain in RSPC log view, the process chain status is also shown as canceled 'X' and status of all process in process is green, however, after wait for a while, the status changed from canceled 'X' to successful 'G'.
Why did the status of process chain show as canceled 'X' even though finally process chain status is successful ? If I want to check status of process chain after execute completely, which status should to check in ABAP code?
Regards,
Pui

Using that FM.. u will be providing the Instance and Variant of the failed process.. and hence the reload will start from the failed process but not the entire chain...
In general the process status shud finish then or based on the link combination the change from one process to other will happen...
try to maintain a wait time between the process atleast 2 to 4 secs..
thanks
hope this helps..

Issue in Process Chain Status

Hi,
We have various process chains for daily loads. Among those some of the process chain shows the status as red, but the data loaded successfully in the targets. And subsequent chains are not getting triggered.
Can someone let me know the solution for this please?
Regards,
Sarath.

Hi Sarath,
May be some of the process type got failed in the process chain, and it might got sucessfull only after manually resolving or may be after repeating from the Process chain, In these cases some times the process chain entire status turns to RED.
You can forcefully change the process chain to Green.
copy the variant and Instance of the process chain(or select the last process type in the process chain)
goto SE11-->Enter the table RSPCPROCESSLOG and execute --> now enter the copied variant and instance here and execute, It'll give you a new pop up with a LOG id, copy this log id as well.
Now gto se37>Functional module>RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH execute and the enter the copied vaiant, instance and logid, and also enter G (sucesfully completed) in I_State and now execute.

Process Chain Log Maintenance

Hi All,
In my project we maintain an load status excel sheet to document all the timings of process chain running in our window.
We were maintaining only the start time of process chain (we get from RSPCM), now the requirement has changed and customer wants us to mention the end time of each process chain.
Since we have good amount of process chain running it is becoming really hectic to take timings for each PC.
Procedure we are following to take the end time is that through RSPCM we go to every PC and take the timing of last process in the PC.This takes lot of time.
Please suggest from where we can exact log of start and end time of every PC.Are there any table from where we can see the start and end time???
I am waiting for the valuable inputs......

Kshitij

Configuration Guide for Transaction Banking Process Chain - 0TB_DM_INIT_P01

Hi All,
Just wondering whether there is any Configuration Guide available for various Transaction Banking Process Chains, like, [0TB_DM_INIT_P01|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/7e/0d6a99cbdf4873998b533e088b6a1b/frameset.htm], etc.
These process chains in Activity Status Coversion (i.e. Dormancy management) are quite complex and I have been able to activate the chains - but while running some of the processes are giving errors...
So, was wondering whether any Building Block Configuration Guide like CRM Analytics (or, others) available or not?
If not, should I just open an OSS ticket to get official guide from SAP?
Thanks for help.

Process chain--failed infopackage--urgent....

Hi Experts,
can anyone tell me why the process chain when triggered has successfully started but the first infopackages after the start varient did not sucessfully run.
the infopackages show in the process chain in yellow status as if the data loadings are taking place but when u go to the monitor screen the data loadings will not be taking place. if you manually trigger the infopackage then only the data loadings are taking place.
what could be the reason and how to make the process chain run successfully after it gets triggered.
i have deleted all the released jobs for all the processes in the process chain and triggered manually that chain but it is of no use. still the same problem is persisting, is there anything on BW part that we could or is it Basis work that needs to be done for the solution of this type of problem.

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.

Trigger Process Chain Fails

Hi All,
We have a BI 3.5 System.We use the Maestro Background Job utility to fire background jobs in the SAP system including the process chain.
Of late, we have been experiencing problems wherein the process chain is not triggered automatically from the maestro application as scheduled.
It fails with the following error log in maestro :

It dosen't throw any dump.In fact the BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER background job shows completed successfully in SM37.
Any help.
Thanks & Regards,
<b>Navin</b>

Navin,
this can have several issues. Please verify the r3user profile in your BI system, the r3user which is defined in the r3batch options file. The SAP user must have the profile S_BI-WHM_RFC assigned, additionally to the access right definition explained in the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for Applications users guide.
If this does not solve your problem, please contact IBM support and open a problem management report.
Kind regards

Process chain hungs if run automatically

Hello
My process chain hungs (yellow status) if its run automatically by scheduler.
However, it completes succesfully if I run it manually.
Do you know any reason why?

Hey,
Probably the PC start job gets released and never reaches the work processor. Please check the availability of work processors when the PC starts and try to see if the job gets into released state. Now, try to manually schedule this job immediately and see if the PC starts. If this is the case, you need to ask your basis guys to configure the system properly. Does this happen with som other jobs also?
Thanks and Regards

Difference between Scheduled and released with respect to process chains

HI All,
I am Creating a cube in whcih I want to upload the current status of the process chain.
And the requirement is not to take those process chains whcih are scheduled and not released( only take those process chains whcih have status released)
for the same I dont know what is the difference between Scheduled and Released in respect of process Chains and also from whcih Database table I can get this information.
Please help.
Regards,
Ujjwal

Hi,
Job Status Scheduled means a job has been created and is ready to run but has not yet been triggered.
A release status means the created job has been triggered and is waiting for the opportunity to run. A job can be in released status when it is a periodic Job ( Where once the job is completed it goes to release status), when it is slated for future execution, or when there is a delay due to database overload.

Pramod

Process Chain - status Undefined

Hi Guys
Recently we updated the patch and after that the process chains are going into the undefined status(They are not failing). If we manually load it works fine. not sure where to start search from as I donu2019t have any error in hand and the warning states something like this
u201CProcess Activate DataStore Object Data, variant Activate Data ZXX_DS04 has status Undefined (instance)u201D
We are on SAP NetWeaver BI 7.0 - SP 15 Patch 17...
Any resolution on this problem. cos we are having this problem everyday and need to run the steps manually.
We have the same problem in DEV and QA too... is there anything to do with the patch (just a guess as things were working fine till the day before the patch)
regards
Shalin Shah

Most of the time we don't get any error message and the process chain will just stop. And some times we get following error message:

Hi,
There are times when Master Data load compel us to do Re-Init. I guess you need a Re-Init.

Infopackage and process chain status

Hello expert,
I am new in BW technology and I need some help...
Well I have created a process chain in order to load data into infoprovider. This process chain is running everyday in production system, (it's a tipical PC: delete PSA request, run infopackage, run DTP....)
I have checked the last status of the process chain and it's yellow since two days ago... It was due a communication error between ERP and BW system, therefore (for some reason), the infopackages started but never ended (always yellow status).
So, my questions are:
1.- Is there any configuration for the infopackage to prevent yellow status (for more than X time)?
2.- Could we control it in a process chain?
Thank you and best regards

Hi,
We can configure for infopackage incase of no records found however you can setup for time linmit.
You can set the status the request is to receive per InfoPackage in the Scheduler, via Scheduler Warning Handling. This setting overrides the system-wide setting.
Check the below link for more info :
