Process Chain step status
Hello All,
In one of our process chain , we have an AND step, where in its checks its 4 preeceding steps, its all 4 are green,the AND Step executes and it goes to the next step.
Chain is running fine since many years. But yesterday , we faced the issue that even if the preeceding steps were green, the AND step status showed Completed rather it should show Successfully Completed.
So we had to manually change the status to Successfully Completed and it went fine.
We check with the Basis also, the system was fine during that point.
Any pointers why the step did not get the Status as Successfully Completed.
Job name: BI_PROCESS_AND

Hi,
You can find the necessary logs & status of the process chains in the RSPCLOGCHAIN table.
Let's know the status.
Also check in table RSPCPROCESSLOG
Let us know the details.

How to stop the process chain showing status as yellow but no process step
Dear Friends,
How to stop the process chain showing status as yellow but no process step is running in that process chain.
We have manually triggered the process chain for sales it finished successfully till load data but the next step is create index and DB statistics. Both of this steps are in unscheduled position only and no background job for this.
Please guide me.
Thanking you in advance.

ShubhangiHi,
At times even I have faced this situation. During those times, running the Function module RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH by passing the right parameters came to my rescue.

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.

Send Message from Process Chain Step without Process Log
We send a mail message, depending on the success or failure of the process chain step, to user list.
When the message is sent not only custom message but also the status information and the process log are sent.
Our users are only interested about the result of the chain and they don' t want to view all technical information.
Is it possible to send message without process log?
RegardsHi,
Take 2 process(red and green line) from each of the process in the process Chain, one is for sucessfull and other is for failure and at the end of the proces chain, just put all failure process to the OR and have add a ABAP Program (with Not Sucessfull) and then just put all sucessfull process to the AND and have add a ABAP Program (with Sucessfull) .
This wil send the mail to the users, when ever there is failure in PC any where, or sends a mail ..if the process chain completes sucessfully.
If you want only add the send of mail option at the end of the process chain, we can just add 2 process (red and green line) and have same flow as above. so that.. it will only sends mail..when there is failure or sucessfull of the process chian.
Hope it helps ...... -

Execute process chain step based on value in a custom table
HI,
I have a requirement where i need to execute a process chain step based in the value of a field in a custom table.
e.g. If ztable-zflag = 'X' then execute next step else stop.
I am trying to use the decision between multiple alternatives process type, but i guess we can only use formulas in it.
Also, i created a custom method and called it through the badi RSAR_CONNECTOR, but the same isnt working as expected.
Would appreciate inputs from the experts.Hi,
Thank you for your response.
I followed exactly what is written in the document. But when I execute the process chain with the Decision between Multiple Alternatives process type, it fails with an exception message.
Below is what I have done:
Below is the code that I entered in the method (Please note that ZPC_CONTROL is the table from which I need to check the value. This table contains 2 fields: Process Chain Name and Flag. My requirement is that when a particular process chain has the flag checked, then the process chain should move ahead):
Below is the GET method:
Finally, here is the formula that I have written in the Decision Between Multiple Alternatives process type:
And the event is Option 2 (which I assume will move the process chain forward if the flag is checked for the process chain ‘TEMP_TEST’)
Please note that the flag for process chain ‘TEMP_TEST’ is checked in the table ZPC_CONTROL.
Below is the error in the process chain:
Please let me know where am I going wrong here. Appreciate your help. -

Process chain overall status red - single processes green
Hi,
I'm monitoring a process chain in RSPCM. Some of the steps within the chain went red during the run but went green after repeating those steps. But now my overall status of the chain is still red. How can I set the overall status of a process chain without rerunning it? I don't want to set the status of a single process step but the overall status of the process chain as all steps of the chain are green now.
Cheers,
AlexIf you process chain is designed like
Ex: ZABC
Start-->Local Process chain
And assuming if any process failed inside teh local process chain , the entire Local process chain will be in Red, If you want forcefully change this ZABC chain, then
Goto Log view and Docuble click on the Local Process chain>Goto Chain tab>Copy the Variant and Instance
Goto Se11--> RSPCPROCESSLOG >Pass the copied Variant and Instance here and then execute>Copy the Log id from generated table entry
Now got Se37--> rspc_process_finish -->Enter the copied Variant , Instance , Log id , I_Type , I_State ('G' For Sucessfuly completed) and execute. Now the Local process chian will turn to Green and then the entire PC will in turn green(since this chain has only start process and Local process types, where as start process type is already in Green colour)
Or if you chain is designed like
Start>IP>Delete index>DTPCreate index...
Then Copy the variant and instance of the Last process type in the process chain and the same procedure as mentioned above

Process Chain Steps to upload into teh Cube for delta init
Hi All,
I have all the delta init info package in my Process chain for all the DSO themn i have DSO ACtivation step and third is Furhter Processing....
It ran Ok for all the DSO but it Did not update the data into the Infocubes... Also all my DSO setting is Update data into the data target,,, >> Set the status to ok automatically..
Plz let em know what i am missing ...
Thank youCreate a info package for the DSO to Cube by going to the 8 Datasource and load the data.
From the time you start delta you should not face any issues.

Hi,
We have a process chain that frequently fails on a load data step. The step prior is a delete index. The data load is loading to a PSA and then to the data targets. The issue we are seeeing is if you repeat the data load step when it fails the delete index, which was already successful, changes to yellow. The delete index step stays yellow and never changes to green, it really is not running. Then the data load step that was repeated actually does run and complete successfully but the step never changes to green it stays red. As a result the process chain never completes. I have a work around, by running the info package manually then changing the failed step to green. But I would like to find out why this happens and can we stop it from happening.
Thanks
Cheryl FarleyHi,
When loading the data from PSA and then into datatargets fails at the second stage from PSA to target,
here if u repeat the chain as far i guess the load to PSA appears into yellow and then changes to green when the data is updated o target...
but in ur case u r saying tht the delte index step is failing/changing into yellow when repeating at load step..
now confirm from where u r repeating ur chain either from load to PSA or PSA to target...
in both the cases the delte index shuld not be running again..once chk the whole design of ur chain,,,

Process Chain step repeat/restart
I have a process chain which schedules 3 loads to psa and then loads the data into ods/cubes. it often fails here due to data problems. now there are at least 4 subsequent steps that are not executed due to this failure which is correct but i don't want to have to fix the problem with the data by deleting the requests from the ods/cube and correcting in the PSA and then have to do all the subsequent steps manually.
Once i have corrected the data in the PSA:
if i repeat the load to ODS step will it continue through the rest of the chain?
if i restart the chain will it repeat the extract to PSA steps which i definitely don't want it to do?
or can i schedule the subsequent part of the chain to run from the planning view?Hi Richard,
I guess when there is some data issue, there is always need for manual intervention.
"if i repeat the load to ODS step will it continue through the rest of the chain?"
<i>You have to delete the failed request manually from DataTarget before doing this.</i>
"if i restart the chain will it repeat the extract to PSA steps which i definitely don't want it to do?"
<i>Yes. Restarting chain will extract the data again.</i>
or can i schedule the subsequent part of the chain to run from the planning view?
<i>I don't think you can start a chain from the middle from planning view.</i>

How to handle delta failed process chain steps
Hi All,
I have a query regarding process chains were in processstep has delta load and there is dependency between the predeseccor and successor process steps,then
if the delta load fails due to any one of the following reasons
1) due to remote_icp locked the prtclr Infoobject the process step is executing .
2) due to any psa records errors and so on
Then how to handle delta and see that correct delta records were updated .
Because again for the nextday loads if the previous delta is incorrect it will give pop-up message that it is not possible.
If any suugestions pl guide me.
thanks
Venkat
[email protected]1)Remove the lock by force from sm12 or wait till the lock is gone.Then see if the delta data has come till the PSA.Mark failed delta load RED and back it out from target.Then read everything in manually from PSA to target.
In process chains u can go the monitor entry for the failed load by..highlight chain..click log icon..give selection..for proper selection..see the failed node..right click..display messages..click on process monitor.
Sometimes even if infopackage is run successful manually,next steps in the chain do not kick off.
Use Siggi's excellent blog on this..(it works really well)
/people/siegfried.szameitat/blog/2006/02/26/restarting-processchains
2)Make request RED and back it out from target.
Correct records in the PSA and read everything in manually from PSA to data target.
Then use Siggi's blog.
If data hasnt come to PSA do a delta repeat.
Always check yesterday's chain run about 1-2 hrs before today's chain kicks off.
cheers,
Vishvesh

Process Chains - Incompletion Status
Hi,
I am having regular scheduled process chain. In the chain log, At the middle of the chain, chain was showing green, rest of the chain was showing gray color. But i can see rest of the data loads completed after checking the data targets manually.
Can you please tell me the reason, why the rest of the process chain is not showing complete status (Green status) in log view?
Best Regards,
VenkataHi
The reason may be becose...
The chain was ran twice....
When the Chain PC ran twice .. the PC gets hang.. there is a note on this issue...
Please serach the note witht he Key word : "Process chain hangs"..
And there is a Big discussin which was raised by Pradep Patil.. please search once.. that thread . u will get lot if info...
hope it helps..

Process chain inyellow status.
HI Experts,
I am runnig a process chain.one of the process is activation of DSO.it is succesful.i can see the sucees message in disply messags and manage of the dso i can see the bex symbol.but the process is in yellow for long time.and next process is in waiting..i dont have authoriation to run RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH functional module.
what could be thereason and how go head..
regards..roiHi,
For your issue please check whether the overall status is green or still is in processing?
If it is green in moniter screen then we can forcebly make it as green and then proceed further.
If it is a process chain issue then its mandat to have authorization to execute RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH.

Hello,
I need to schedule a job using process chain my job details as follows
PSA(Delta)>DSO(Delta)-->INFOCUBE(Delta)
Steps as follows
Start
Deleting InfoCube Index
Execute InfoPackage(PSA-->DSO) as Delta Load
Activate the DSO data
Execute Data Transfer Process(loading DSO -->INFOCUBE) as Delta Load
Above procedure is good way to do? any draw backs
ThanksYes .. for all steps
Infopackage (delta)--Successful then only Execute one by one
DTP for DSO (delta) -- when successful do next step
Activate DSO -- when successful do next step
Delete index infocube -- when successful do next step
DTP for cube (delta) -- when successful do next step
Create index.
