Process Chain Maintenance: RSPC and RSPCM

Good morning
We have created, scheduled and activated a process chain in RSPC. How do we get it to display on the RSPCM txn?
Thanks for your time.

How do I add it to RSPCM?

Process chains time outs and hangs with no error msg - in SP13

Hi all,
We are having all kind of weird problems after we patched our system with SP13. Our process chain time outs and hangs, but surprisingly we never get any error msg. And scarier part is, the problem seems to be intermittent. PC runs fine on some days and hangs on some.
Further analysis into the dump as below
Termination occurred in the ABAP program "SAPLRSSM" -
in "RSSM_SLEEP_DEBUG".
The main program was "SAPMSSY1 ".
In the source code the termination point is in (Include) program "LRSSMU39".
This refers to an issue that appears to have been addressed by OSS Note
934648(meant for SP8). This notes also indicates to populate RSADMIN table to
exclude "RSSM_SLEEP_DEBUG". Not sure if this note is valid for SP13? However we went ahead and populated the RSADMIN table.
So now we have no clue whats going on and where to fix the issue.
As per SAP suggestion we applied the following notes:
0000653996 Analyzing lock situations
0000893563 Correction: Deadlock on completion of a remote chain
0000994007 Corrections: Deadlock with external status query
0001005481 Correction: Process successful, but there is no instance
0001047174 Correction: Incorrect scope when locking in process chains
0001051957 Correction: TIME_OUT during dialog confirmation of processes
0001083660 Report for error stack analysis
Nothing seems to help us. And SAP suggested a few options, which we implemented to no rescue.
Im sure that many of the customers have applied SP13, and want some feedback from them, if this is happening in their systems too?
If so, how did you fix this issue?
Or this situation is unique to us?Please note that no settings were changed as of SP13 to that of what they were in SP12(unless it is a side effect of the patch itself). Everything worked fine with SP12 and is still working on the BIP system. All the problems are in BIQ patched to SP13.
Any pointers or insight would be appreciated. We have a customer msg open with SAP, and going back and forth, but nothing seemed to work as of today.
Thanks,
Voodi

Not sure which OSS helped us get past the issue, as SAP asked us to apply a ton of notes. But along which the notes, SAP has some suggestions for us, which we think did the magic. After the implementation of the suggestin we never faced the same issue again. The suggestion by SAP:
move the process chain callback in a batch job by executing
program RSSM_TRACE_SWITCH and selecting the flag "verifcation
of asynchronous processes - execute in batch".
Lemme know if this doesnt fix the issue, I can give all the notes that SAP asked us to apply.

How to know the process chain start time and end time

Hi Experts,
How to know the process chain start time and end time .
Thanks in advance

Hi Reddy,
You may find the run time of a PC using below steps.
1. Call SE38 > /SSA/BWT > Execute > Enter your PC , choose the date and time > Execute. Here Run-time of a PC is displayed. (or)
2. Call RSPC1 > Enter your PC > Execute > Goto Log view > Right click on the start Variant > Displaying Messages > Note down the start time in Chain Tab. Now Right click on the last Process type of the PC > Displaying Messages > Note down the End time in Chain Tab. The Difference b/w start time and end time gives the Run-time of your PC.
Hope this helps.

Process chain failed at AND process type ?

hi all .
Process chain failed at AND process type ?
and it is giving message Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE .
what is the reason & solution .
regards ,
srinivas ,

Hi,
That depends on the system behaviour... There is no issue in that... You can repeate the process.. If there is no repeat option available then you can on the detail view.. there is a chance that you will get a repeat option there.. If not then copy the chain.. remove the loaded process and add one starter chain an continue the chain in immediate mode...

Process Chain Failed at "AND" stage!!!!

Hi Experts,
Could any one guide me the steps to rectify the Process chain failure at AND stage???
Steps:
1.Start
2.Data loads(9)
3.AND(failed here)
Error message:This AND process is not waiting for event RSPROCESS, parameter 3VW29DJ1PBX67PFJHD5IAEYI1 E

We encountered a similar error. Actually it wasn't an error, the process chain just stopped at the AND process and did not continue. We are on BW 3.5. I believe there is are OSS Notes for this. See 1005481 or 1003941.
If this is not the case, try to reschedule the process chain. To remove from scheduling:
1. select Process Chain -- Remove from Scheduling.
2. Activate and Schedule process chain
We did not install the notes (above) and rescheduling did not work for us. We ended up changing and tranporting the process chain again and we were fine.
Hope this helps.

How to create process chain with dso and infocube at a time

hi friends,
i have a FLATFILE in application server and i need to upload it to STANDARD DSO and i created a INFO PACKAGE and DTP for DSO.
i have a STANDARD INFOCUBE to upload data from above DSO. here DSO is the source. i want to schedule this process in process chain. how could i do this. any one please give me solution.
can any one explain me the options in RSPC and how they work and where we exactly use. this is very helpful to me. please give me guidance. thank you.
thanks,
sree

First make sure you have already created the infopackage to load the data from server to the DSO and the DTP to load data from DSO to the Cube.
Now goto Tcode RSPC.
Choose Create process Chain option. provide appropriate technical name and description.
Drag "Execute infopackage" process type from left hand side pane in RSPC. Choose the infopackage to load the data from Server to DSO. you can find this infopackage using the F4 help in the above selected process type.
Drag the "data transfer process" process type to load data from the Flat file data source above to the DSO.
Then Drag the "Activate DataStore Request" process type and select the DSO in which you would load the data using the above DTP.
Drag the "data transfer process" process type to load data from DSO to the Cube.
Save, activate and schedule the process chain according to appropriate time.

How to search for a process chain in RSPC ?

Hi,
Is there any way that i can find a process chain by giving the name of the variant.
I know that i can click on the DTP and from there i can go to the process chain if i know the DTP.
But here my problem is that i have a program which is calling a process chain now i what to what this process chain is doing.
Is there any way to find it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Surendra,
Thanks for the inputs. Thanks for sharing some useful table names.
But this haven't solved my issue.
I have the below mentioned code in a program.
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPC_CHAIN_START'
       EXPORTING
         I_CHAIN             = 'YPC_VARIANT_FOODS'
       I_T_VARIABLES       =
       I_SYNCHRONOUS       =
       I_SIMULATE          =
       I_NOPLAN            =
      IMPORTING
        E_LOGID             = LOGID.
Now i want to see the Process chain ( 'YPC_VARIANT_FOODS' ) in RSPC.
Actually 'YPC_VARIANT_FOODS' is a variant.
Any way to achieve this?
Thanks,
Raghu

Graphical version of Process Chain Maintenance

Hi Expert,
My BW is running on 730 SAPKW73003, BI CONT 735 SAPK-73503INBICONT
when i run RSPC, it is showing RSA1 menu with extra process chain menu on the right.
Where is the old version of graphical representation of RSPC? Anyway i could get it back?
Thanks.
Regards,
MJ

Hi MJ,
This is new feature (standard) in BW 7.3 version. even if u try to get into RSPC, It will redirect you to RSA1.
RSPC is like embedded in RSA1 and u can use full screen (Shift+F11) to view any particular process chain ( to avoid all other standard options of RSA1.)
even RSPC1 will take you to same place(RSA1)

How to find a process chain in RSPC if u know the Chain ID?

Hi,
is there any way to know the process chain if u cud know the chainid fro the same?
i had find the option "find" that does not have the finding PC by its ID
by description it is taking ages to find one PC

Dear Raj Karan ,
Go to RSPC
Just try to widen the window ,by moving ur cursor to the part where blue screen and greyish screen meets ..
Once you widen ,you could see the
Obj name ,no and description of PC
Also you can try giving ur description in
RSPC1.

Insert Execute infopackage on process chain maintenance

Hy, i have a serious problem: i can't insert a infopackage on process chain that i created on AWB.
When drag the insert "Execute infopackage process" on process chain and select the match code or F4 button to select an infopackage , receive this message:No data selected.So i can't insert infopackage in my process chain.
Could you help me?
Thank's a lot.
Sincerely yours
Andrea Maraviglia

Hi,
Go to rspc. At top of left pane you can see a data target icon. Click on that. Select your data target. Check the infopackage ckeck box. Here you can select your infopackage.
Try this out.

Process Chain hangs on AND process

Help Super gurus!
I've tried several versions of a chain that loads multiple InfoPackages serially then multiple DTP in parallel using filtering from the PSA to a DSO. All load successfully. Then I have the DTPs all meet at an 'AND' process before processing should continue to a cube.
The 'AND' process also shows green but it does not continue to the next process step. It just stops there, no more jobs running, no yellow, nothing. It thinks it's all done, everything after that is still blue.
Why does it hang there and what can I do to get it to continue?
Thanks,
Al
Points available.

Hi,
Not sure what is the root cause in your case.
Try this. It may work. Normally this is done after a step turns red and no repeat is available.
Method 1 (when it fails in a step/request)
/people/siegfried.szameitat/blog/2006/02/26/restarting-processchains
How is it possible to restart a process chain at a failed step/request?
Sometimes, it doesn't help to just set a request to green status in order to run the process chain from that step on to the end.
You need to set the failed request/step to green in the database as well as you need to raise the event that will force the process chain to run to the end from the next request/step on.
Therefore you need to 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.
Of course you can also set the state of a specific step in the chain to any other possible value like 'R' = ended with errors, 'F' = finished, 'X' = cancelled ....
Check out the value help on field rspcprocesslog-state in transaction se16 for the possible values.
Thanks,

Process chain Error: This AND process is not waiting for event RSPROCESS

Hi All,
I am facing an error in the process chain in PRD.
Error message: This AND process is not waiting for event RSPROCESS.
We had a process chain which had two sub chains which run parallel and below of this we had AND process type and below of the AND process we had 4 more jobs.
Once the two subchains got successfully loaded, the and process should turn to green and further 4 jobs should start.
It is a daily load , it worked fine from past years,but suddenly the AND processtype is getting failed.The thing is in the two subchains if one got completed, the AND process process is not waiting for 2nd subchain to get completed.The AND process is turning to RED (status: cancelled) . I tried to repeat the AND process once after above 2 subchains loaded, but it didnt worked.
And i removed the existing AND process and created a new one and placed it in same place and activated and schedules again.but still it is getting failed with same error.
Thanks in advance,
Sai Chand.S

Hi,
If you did any transports related to that metachain we face similar kind of issues.
not only the AND process , we need to remove all the process before executing the AND process and create it again.
It helps you, you said your in production So you should take the proper approvals and do it.

Process Chain : Read PSA and Update Data Target in BI 7.0

Hello Experts,
In my Process Chain I have a variant Execute Infopackage to load the data only into PSA. then I have next variant as *Read PSA and Update Data Target*. my data target was a Master Data table Hierarchy
In the variant " Read PSA and Update Data Target". the selection Parameters were
PSA.Table : 0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA1
Selection Object Type : same Infopackage in Varaint Execute Infopackage
the Error message was Variant doesnot contain a valid combination request/data target
I checked the PSA-Table using RSA1OLD Transaction then I find four PSA Tables:
0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA1
0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA2
0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA3
0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA4
All the requests are linked to PSA Table *0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA4*.
I can't understand why there exists four PSA Tables?
I try to link the PSA-table 0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA4 in the variant *Read PSA and Update Data Target and try to save it it raises short dump.
If I select 0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA1 in the varaint I shouldn't face any problems.?
but the process chain raises an Error message Variant doesnot contain a valid combination request/data target with this variant.
How shall I handle this issue?
Please carify me the issues as soon as possible.
thanks in advance
Regards
sailekha

Hello,
In the Variant Read PSA and Update Data Target I have to select the PSA Tabelle Name from the preselection list in the System it shows me all the four PSA Tables that I mentioned.
I can select any one of them. So I trieed with all the four PSA Tables in the list but I can selct only the XXXX......BA1 table then only I can save and include it in the PC. If I select the remaining tables BA2, BA3, BA4.........while I try to save the Variant it raises short dump.
I checked the PSA using the Transaction RSA1OLD under PSA...... I find 4 PSA Tables( I don't know whether they are PSA Tables or not but in the Variant it states that they are PSA Tables) in which all the requests are attached to BA4. only.
I observed that ony for Hierarchies I find four PSA tables for remaining one only one PSA table was available.
I totally confused how to handle this situation. any suggestions......... please help me to resolve this problem.
Thanks & Regards

Scheduling process chain in 1st and last of the month

Hello ,
Can some one help in scheduling the process chain at the starting of the month and the end of the month ?
The chain has to start on 1 st and 28th of every month.
Help me with the informations please!
Points will be assigned!
Thanks in Advance
Ram!

Have your process chain to start "After event". Then create an ABAP program to call function module BP_EVENT_RAISE. There are numerous postings in this forum on how to do this.
Next create two monthly jobs (one scheduled on the 1st and the other on the 28th) using SM36, and the only step in the job is to call the program to trigger (raise) the event. By triggering the event, your process chain will execute.
