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 you

Create 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.

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?
Regards

Hi,
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 ......

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

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

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.

Hi i have 50 infoobjects as part of my aggregates and in that 10 infoobjects have received changes in masterdata.so in my process chain the Attribute change run in running for a long time.can i kill the job and repeat the same.

Hi i have 50 infoobjects as part of my aggregates and in that 10 infoobjects have received changes in masterdata.so in my process chain the Attribute change run in running for a long time.can i kill the job and repeat the same.

Hi,
I believe this would be your Prod system, so don't just cancel it but look at the job log. If it is still processing then don't kill it and wait for the change run to complete but if you can see that nothing is happening and it is stuck for a long time then you can go ahead and cancel it.
But please be sure, as these kind of jobs can create problems if you cancel them in the middle of a job.

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?"
You have to delete the failed request manually from DataTarget before doing this.
"if i restart the chain will it repeat the extract to PSA steps which i definitely don't want it to do?"
Yes. Restarting chain will extract the data again.
or can i schedule the subsequent part of the chain to run from the planning view?
I don't think you can start a chain from the middle from planning view.

Process Chain step failures

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 Farley

Hi,
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,,,
rgds,

Process Chain Steps

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
Thanks

Yes .. 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.

Process Chain which loads data to a cube

Hi All
Please help me create a process chain in BI 7.0. I have to load the data in to a cube and before that i need to delete the existing request in the Cube. I think i should use " Delete overlapping requests from Infocube". In the maintain variant for this process type what object types i need to add. Do i need to add both Execute infopackage and Data transfer process objects.
Regards
Naga

Hi Ravi
I am loading the data from PSA to Cube using DTP. Actually my data source is export datasource (8ZHYP- prefix 8). So accroding to your answer i should use DTP object type in the process type delete overlapping request. But when i create a variant for that process type it is getting Indexs > Create Index > Data Transfer Process > Request to delete data in the infocube.
I just want to delete the data in the infocube before i load the data. So can i delete all the remaining processes.
Regards
Naga

Process Chain error while creating index on cube

Hi All,
I have two process chain P1 daily(except sunday) and P2 weekly(sunday), both have same process, i.e. cube C1 is loaded with same infopackage in both infopackage.
Now, on saturday after laoding the content index creating process on cube c1 is failed by process chain P1, but on sunday P2 have laoded C1 correctly and created indexes.
Now, my doubt is wheather i repeat process chain P1 from creating indexes or there is no need as indexes on cube are created by PC 2.
kindly suggest,
Regards,
Rajvinder

Hi Raj,
There is no need of running the process chain P1, the data has been bought by the process chain P2.
If there are any filters/data selection in infopackage level then you need to run the process chain P1.
Be make sure about the process chains and there infopackages/dtp's.
With Regards,
Ravi Kanth

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

Trigger Process Chain from Source System into Target System

Hello...actually in source system BZD, we have a process chain, in the target system BWD, we have another process chain as well. We want to have a process of combining these two process chain together. When the process chain in source system is completed successfully, the system will sent out some sort of signal to start the process chain in BWD. I am not sure how this can be done, I try to use the function module "BP_EVENT_RAISE" in the BZD and when this module is called, it does not start the process chain in BWD after the process chain in BZD is completed. I just wondering am I using the correct method. If will be good if anyone here can help...thanks alot.

Hi Fluffy,
Check RFC connection between the two sysems.
Try using remote process chain process type in the process chain. the fllowing link may help you.

Deletion of Dimension Table data in Process Chain Step

Hi,
I am trying to delete the InfoCube Contents using a Process Chian.This process is successfully deleting the Fact table contents, but not dimension table contents.
I need your help to automate the deletion of dimension table contents.
FYI--
We are using BW 3.0 B.
Thanks in Advance.
Vardhan.

Hi
Unfortunately is not possible. I had in the past the same issue and I had also a confirmation from SAP.
You can use RSRV to delete unsed value, manually or build a program.
the process chain allows only to delete the fact table.

Mike
