Process chain s linking problem ?

HI ALL ,
i have a main chain , in which i have to include one chain by using local process type .
when i am linking it is giving message that shows , " if u link them one of the process chain will be deleted and its process assigned to the other chains .
which one of the two chains do you want to delete ?
which options do i need to select .
regards ,
Srinivas

Hi Srinivas
After creating a start variant for the main chain, you need to make use of the Local process chain type wherein you need to
get the new process chain name and link the start variant with the local chain.
Make sure that the start variant of the local chain has the option as Start using Metachain in it.

Problem with AND processer in process chains

Hi friends,
In BI 7.0, when creating a process chain by linking 2 DTPs with AND processor,
two AND processor are showing.
Can anyone please suggest how to get only one AND processor after combining also.
babu

Hi Babu,
You can remove one AND process step from the design.
(Right click on the process step and Remove Process)
Connect two DTPs with the remaining AND process step, Save and Activate.
This will solve your problem.

Problem in Process Chain Scheduling

Hi BW Experts,
We are running daily Process Chains in the Night Time.
Due to Memory Problem in BW Production Server we stopped all Process Chains on 20/09/2007.
Yesterday our memory problem solved. So I scheduled Process Chains Yesterday.
We have Timings like:
22:30 PM
23:00 PM
23:30 PM
23:50 PM
01:30 AM
06:00 AM
Yesterday we scheduled all Process Chains as per above timings.
But when iam going to schedule the 01:30 AM Timing Process Chain on 11-10-2007 , but it is taking 12-10-2007.
It is taking one extra day.
Generally it has to run today 11-10-2007. But why it is happening.
For 06:30 AM timing Process Chains also same problem.
So we noticed that after 12:00AM, it is taking one extra day.
Please give me the reply.
Thanks & Regards,
Anjali

Hi Venkat,
I scheduled it tomorrow at 01:30 AM , it is taking 13-10-2007.
If I schedule any process chian after 12:00 AM, it is taking one day extra.
This is happening since 5 months.
ECC 6 has been upgraded successfully in May month.
After ECC 6 Upgradation we are facing time delay problem.
Before ECC 6 Upgradation we never faced this problem.

Job to trigger a process chain

Hi Gurus,
I have to create a job in SM37 which triggers a process chain every day at 2 am.This job has to run after the completion of another job.Please let me know the procedure.I searched the forums but did not find anything suiting my requirement.
Thanks,
Sai.

hi Sai,
if you want to run the second chain after the successful execution of first chain,
create two Process chains and link the two chains, while u looking both chains the system will ask you successful, (or)error (or) always; there u can choose successful;
that means the second chain will start only after the successfull execution of PC1

BWCCMS on process chains

Hello,
I scheduled a lot of process chains to run every night and in the morning, I look at BWCCMS transaction in order to know which process chain have failed (I can immediately see the red Process chains).
My problem is that a process chain is in red if it has failed one day, not necessarly the night before.
Is it possible to delete the old proces chain request in red in the BWCCMS ?
or to select only the process chains of the last 1 or 2 days ?
Or to change the old process chain status in green after we have corrected all the problems of the process chain in error ?
Thanks to help me as I can't do anything else for the moment than expanding all the subtrees of the BWCCMS.
Vanessa ROULIER

SAP Have provided a solution to this. If you use the menu bar button, "Open Alerts". This takes you to an alternate view of the chains. You can then select the chain in error and click on the "Complete Alerts" button. This will bring up another screen where you confirm the complete. This will then change it to Green.
You can toggle between "Open Alerts" and "Current Status" to compare.
I complete the chains once i have resolved the errors, so that the next day, anything that is red in the "Open Alerts" view is a new error.

Advice me frnds..., its urgent

swetha

Hi Swetha,
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.
Try this solution with your 3rd ODS..hope this will solve your problem for this instance. This is just a workaround.
Before next scheduel of the process chain..remove the link between 3rd ODS and 4th ODS and then reconnect once again and activate the process chain and schedule it as per your schedule cycle. From next upload onwards everything works fine.
Assign points if it is helpful.

Problem in creating the Process Chain

hi Guru's
my client want to run a process chain for first 3 business days of the month for every hour.
then i created a 3 Process chains say ex. A B C.
Now i use the conditions for Process Chain A is Date and Time
i have given the date and time,
Selected Periodic Job Option
-> From Period Values button selected other period and given 1 for every month, 1 for every hour,
-> Selected the Restrictions Button and given the factory calender and selected " Job not to run on holiday and sundays "
therefore the chain can run on every month for whole day based on Factory calender.
the same options used for PC's B & C
The problem is the process Chain A has ran only once it didnt ran for every hour.
In released job i can see the job frequency for every month and every hour...
Request you gurus to suggest.

Lajvanth

Link error in Process Chain.

I have a process chain that has received an error on a link (red line between processes). I can display the event and see event = RSPROCESS and
Bkgrd event param. = 59SP2GLEKWWWRE8GWTM87CZXY.
How can I research what is causing this error. It has ocurred twice in production. Can I use the event collector some how to see what is happening?
Thanks for your help.
Denny

Hi Dennis,
What ever the time frame that u have for a particular load, whenever that load finishes then u will get the proper light in ur process chain. Once the time exceeds for a particular process then the status in the monitor as well as in Process chain will change to red.
What u can do is u can wait for the load to finish.
U can set ur own time frame for a particular load, so that u wont come across this problem..
Some times bcoz of the TRFC problems b/n the partner may also causes this type of problem.If that is the case then u have to wait for the load to finish.
Hope this helps-

Problem with AND process in daily running process chain

Dear Friends,

I have a problem in creating a Process Chain(PC).

Hi GURU's
I have a problem in creating a Process Chain(PC). The PC should run on first 3 business days of the month for six times i,e 6am, 7am,8am, 9am,10am,11am.
For this i have created 3 PC like BD1, BD2, BD3, and i selected the Factory calender provided workday 1, 2 , 3 and time for three chains.
Now should i schedule it for 6times in a day.
I tried creating a new job for one of PC's but i have to change the timings for every month (this is not the proper solution).
Please help me.

Lajwanth

Hi Friend,
For the days part, you can create a new factory calendar with first 3 business days of each month only as working days.
Then in the scheduling -> Restrictions; you can mention that Factory Calendar id and select radio button for "Move job to next working day". Schedule the chain as Periodic "Hourly".
Then for the Time part -> You can insert process type "Decision between multiple alternatives" after the start variant.
After you insert this process type you can create a formula in it to check for system time. In the if condition check for system time i.e., whether it is between 6 - 11. If only the system time is between 6 AM to 11 AM only then the decision step would turn to green and go to the successor step in the process chain.
Process chain would be like:
Start variant -> Decision Step -> Rest of the chain.
So in short the factory calendar will take care of which days the chain will run and decision step will take care of the timings.

Problem with delete index of cube in process chain

Hi,
I ran into the same situation with one of my process chain that is part of a metachain. The process chain has the Delete Index that turned red. But the messages show that the indexes on all the cubes were deleted sucessfully.
As suggested, I did a repeat on the delete index variant, but no luck as it turned red again.
Anyone aware familiar with this issue?

Process Chain/OS Command cp problem

Hello,
I am trying to execute a command similar to the following in an OS command in a process chain:
cp /path/filename*.txt /path/filenamexxx.txt
I know it's not a permissions problem.
This is the error message from the Process Chain Maintenance Log View:
cp: cannot access /path/filename*.txt: No such file or directory
External program terminated with exit code 1
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Gary Martins

Hi Gary,
Is this file(cp /path/filename*.txt /path/filenamexxx.txt) avaialble at perticular path...??
File is in application server or workstation(PC). If file is available in one application server and your Pchain running againest another application server, you may get this error. Plz check.
Hope it Helps

Problem with loading in process chain

Hello all,
I've a problem with my process chain. There are few loading packages that are suppose to start together. Problem is, I guess, not enough processes to start them all together. What happens is that some start loading where others "wait". In SM50 I can see all processes are taken. When the loading of the first pacakages is finished (and I can see processes available in SM50)
I'm expecting the load of the waiting packages would start, but nothing happens and the process chains stucks!
The infopackage load gets a yellow color, and stays that way, no cahnges , and no start of process, can someone help? anyone encountered that before?
Thank you,
Yoav Ophek.

Hi,
Monitor the InfoPack Loads through the T-Code RSMO.
When u select a Job, go to EnvironMent ->tRFC -> In Source System / DataWarehouse, and check if there are any Stuck tRFC's due to which the loads are stuck.
I do not see any other reasons why the Loads would be stuck.
Also check ST22 for any Short Dumps occurred for that time.
SM21 for Job Overview.
And check what else could have been the problem for not loading the InfoPackages.
Hope it helps,
Pradip Parmar
