Process Chain stops if no data

Hello,
My proccess chain stops if one of my infopackages doesn't return any data. How do I change the settings so no data returns a 'success' status??
Thanks
Sheena

Hi,
if there is no data then you process will be in yellow colour, and other process are waiting for this, we are also having the same problem and we change the status in monitor to green from yellow couple of times after that system automatically converts the status to green from yellow even though there is no data, i think you can try this option, which we used earlier and working fine now.

Process chain stopping in middle

process chain stopping in middle , after a info-object present in the process chain has been manually set to green.Please advice me what to do????

Hi,
Please follow the below steps:
Step 1: At the step where the process chain is stuck
Go to display messages -chain- copy variant, instance & start date
Step 2: Go to se16, table rspcprocesslog  execute
Copy as below,
Variant-- variante
Instance instance
Batch datestart date
This will give a single entry in the table rspcprocesslog.
Step 3: Go to se37, input FM RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH and execute
Copy
Rspcprocesslog u2013 instance -
I_INSTANCE.
Rspcprocesslog u2013variante -
I_VARIANT
Rspcprocesslog u2013 logid----I_LOGID
Rspcprocesslog u2013 type ---I_TYPE
Enter u2018Gu2019 for parameter I_STATE and press execute (F8).
After executing the above FM, with the above stated parameters, 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.

Error in process chain when running package (data manager)

Hello experts,
I try to run the following how to : "move date between applications using Data Manager ..."
Yon can find the pdf here : http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/b0480970-894f-2d10-f9a5-d4b1160be203
I'm looking after someone who used it successfully, on my side after implementing all steps and running the package I get the message "IMMEDIATE RUN: Request to run the package on the server was successful The package is now running"
When I look the log for the process chain, overall status of the process chain is yellow, and steps "modify dynamically" and "clear BPC Tables" are in error.
I can't get any usefull error messages.
If someone has an idea to have details about those errors, it will be appreciated.
Points will be awarded, thanks in advance.

Hello Experts,
I am also facing the same issue with PC failing at Modify_Dynamically step....
This process type is working fine when used in standard delivered process chain to load transaction data.
I tried using this variant in my cutsom chain, but it fails.
Please suggest.....
Thx....D

Delta and Full process chain for same master data target.

Hi Friends,
Can I do full update and delta update through process chain for same master data target and from same source ?
Regards
shekar reddy

Hi Sriram,
why you want to load full and delta for same master data object?
you can achieve this but make sure that you select repair full option for full load IP.
you have this option in scheduler in menu bar

Process chain stops - previous processes are green

Hi All,
We have a process chain that loads our master data each night. It chain is mostly made up of infopackages (mostly full loads) and the change run for those objects. We recently upgraded from 3.5 to BI7, SP16.
Since the upgrade, this chain, and a few others just seem to stop. They will start, and successfully complete some of the processes in the chain (all green), but then will not move on to the next process. The next process will not be yellow, it just won't start. The overall status of the chain is yellow.
I am 100 percent sure there are no other chains running during this time frame. This chain has been running for over 4 years in production, and we have never encountered this issue.
Last night, I removed the chain from the schedule, and then rescheduled. I'm not sure if that is going to prevent us from having this issue. I have also set the priority to high.
Should this prevent us from encountering this issue again? I have searched OSS and found some related notes, but we are on a higher support pack than what is in the notes, so they are already applied.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Charla

The first thing that I'd recommend is to look at the Start Process Variants for the Process/Local Chains that are not starting. Specifically, I would check to see if the scheduling in those Start Process Variants are set to Direct Scheduling with Immediate Start or set to Start Using Meta Chain or API. It is possible that the conversion from BW 3.x to BW 7.x change the parameters of the scheduling withing the Start Process Variants, even though they were not physically changed and transported.
My recollection is, when we upgraded Support Package Stacks, we had some Local Chains just change on their own where the Immediate Start checkbox mysteriously become unchecked.

Process Chain Stopped in BI PRD

Data Loading Error :
Hi All,
In BI PRoduction, all the process Chains are stopped and while Checking the errors, it is giving the error message as
Errors while sending packages from OLTP to BI
Diagnosis
No IDocs could be sent to BI using RFC.
System Response
There are IDocs in the source system ALE outbox that did not arrive in the ALE inbox of BI.
Further analysis:
Check the TRFC log.
You can access this log using the wizard or the menu path "Environment -> Transact. RFC -> In source system".
Error handling:
If the TRFC is incorrect, check whether the source system is fully connected to BI. In particular, check the authorizations of the background user in the source system.
Morning, I have logged into BW Production, and saying BW Production is down. This is happening frequently.By the help of basis, the system is up.
Please help on this issue.
Thanks,
Jelina.

Thanks for the reply.
I have Checked in ST22 and found, Time Out error is there.
These are the error messages in ST22.
The program "SAPMSSY1" has exceeded the maximum permitted runtime without interruption and has therefore been terminated.
Error Analysis :
After a specific time, the program is terminated to make the work area available to other users who may be waiting.
This is to prevent a work area being blocked unnecessarily long by, for
example:
- Endless loops (DO, WHILE, ...),
- Database accesses with a large result set
- Database accesses without a suitable index (full table scan)
The maximum runtime of a program is limited by the system profile
parameter "rdisp/max_wprun_time". The current setting is 3600 seconds. If this time limit is exceeded, the system attempts to cancel any running SQL statement or signals the ABAP processor to stop the running program. Then the system waits another 60 seconds maximum. If the program is then still active,the work process is restarted.
How to correct the Error :
Programs with long runtime should generally be started as background jobs. If this is not possible, you can increase the system profile parameter "rdisp/max_wprun_time".
Depending on the cause of the error, you may have to take one of the following measures:
- Endless loop: Correct program;
- Dataset resulting from database access is too large:
Instead of "SELECT * ... ENDSELECT", use "SELECT * INTO internal table
(for example);
- Database has unsuitable index: Check index generation.
If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following keywords:
"TIME_OUT" " "
"SAPMSSY1" or "SAPMSSY1"
"REMOTE_FUNCTION_CALL"
If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error notification to SAP, include the following information:
1. The description of the current problem (short dump)
   To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".
2. Corresponding system log
   Display the system log by calling transaction SM21.
   Restrict the time interval to 10 minutes before and five minutes after the short dump. Then choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".
3. If the problem occurs in a problem of your own or a modified SAP program: The source code of the program
   In the editor, choose "Utilities->More Utilities->Upload/Download->Download".
4. Details about the conditions under which the error occurred or which
actions and input led to the error.
Thanks,
Ram

Process chains stopped

Hi,
I am new to BI, my BI server got shotdown due to some reason and process chains are stopped. so how do it re run again? how do check which are stopped and how do re run manually ? any problem if we run manually ?can pls help any body. thanks in advance.

Hi Sasi,
Plz find here one of our expert explanation..
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 batch date 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.

Error in Process Chain while loading Master data text?

Hello All
Having a Process chain and having 5 infopackages(Master data Attri & text)with FULL LOAD with an processing options as PSA and Infobject.In this one of the infopackage failed and the status is in red colour,and when I right clicked there is no <b>repeat</b> option?Now <b>how to run this process</b>?
Heard that v can restart the process in debug screen?can anyone let me know how to do this?
Many Thanks
balaji

Hi dear,
you don't find the repeat option because this is a full load...I think you can easily restart the entire PC (or loading directly the failed infopackage from RSA1), because full loads for master data don't cause any data duplication !
Hope it helps!
Bye,
Roberto

Failure of Process Chain while loading master data.

Hi Guys
We are using BI 7.0, we have a chain which loads the data to several master data objects having a Write Optimized DSO in between those.
The steps of the chain is like this when new/delta loads are started loadin first it deletes the all existing WO DSO requestes. starting it was running nice but, now it showing error as follow

Process chain stopped and unable to trigger next process

Hi all , i am working on process chains, today process completed at DTP and the next process at activation of dso process failed and the rest of the pc completed even though the activation process is red. after the completion of that , chain process stopped, next pc didnt started. plz help me wiht this, thanks in advance..

you can evaluate a local chain as 'green' even if one of the steps is 'red'. in the planning view of the process chain, go to process chain --> attributes --> process status valuation. flag the checkbox. this will enable the next pc to start even after a red status of the local chain...
detailed info:
Red Outcome Renders Chain Green If Process Is Red
If errors are raised for processes that have scheduled an event "With Errors" they are judged as successful for the determination of the overall status of the chain run.
Use
If this indicator is set, all the processes in this chain with errors are judged as successful with regard to the overall status of the run, if they have scheduled a successor process "With Errors" or "Always".
Dependencies
Mailing and alerting is not affected by this indicator. This is also triggered for processes with errors if this has a successor process "With Errors".
Example
You use this indicator in meta-chains to evaluate the run of a subchain as successful in spite of errors in "unimportant" processes. The successors to this process are "always" scheduled, while the successors to key processes are only scheduled "With Success".
Accordingly, successors in the subchain within the meta-chain are only scheduled "With Success"; however they do continue to run if errors have only occurred in the unimportant processes of the subchain.

Process chain stops in infopackage with yellow status

Hi Gurus,
We are experiencing some difficulties regarding the use of process chains with warnings. Our SAP BI system is connected to an ETL server which feeds us with data from other systems. We have a query that has a push-button functionality that starts a process chain beginning with data extraction with an infopackage and ending in a infocube. The problem we have nowadays is that whenever the ETL workflow fails the infopackage status remains yellow, while our objective would be a red status. To try and solve this problem we forced a timeout in the infopackage. Once we check the log in the process chain it displays a message containing something like "status request modified , do you wish to add subsequent processes?", if we say yes it refreshes the status of the infopackage to red and it all goes ok. What we want is to get rid of this warning and that the status is automatically changed. We've checked other posts and we didn't reach any conclusion... Note 708480 gives us a possibility of automatic desicion but how could we integrate it in our process chains since it is based on shcedulling and not triggers?
Your help would be much appreciated,
Thank you
Bruno Rodrigues

Hi,
We have two connected links in the process, one to continue the process chain when process status is green and other link to red status. The problem is the process status remains yellow until our confirmation in pop-up.
The process chain should be started by user in web browser. So, it isn't possible run it in background.
Thank you,
Regards,
BR

PROCESS CHAIN error "Incorrect start date"

hi sap gurus,
I have parent chain in that a newly created meta chain is creating problem.I am getting error in the process chains since two days i am not able to solve this.Can anybody try to help me.
error: Incorrect start date: 00.00.0000; Start time 00:00:00 RSM 847
After that the process chain is turning red,but when i manually execute the process chain its running properly.
Please help me its urgent.

hi gurus,
Its working fine now.
Solution:
first exchange the variant with the smae and then activate and run.After that it will work in the process chain.
Thanks a lot to every body,especially MOHAN KRISHNA,

Help with Process Chain - Stop remaining Processes if Package returns 0 rec

Hi, i have a Process Chain that starts with a single InfoPackage. Then it goes on to distribute the load to multiple DSO's and then onto DSO Activation. I would like the Process Chain to stop right after the InfoPackage if no records are loaded.
Is this possible using the decision variant somehow? Any details on how to achieve this are greatly appreciated!

Hi ,
The request is goin to red status when 0 records are pulled in. There is a option in info package so that even when 0 records come in the request status would be green.
Open your info package , then in the menu goto "Scheduler > Treatment of warnings > Select Green" so that in future even if the info package pulls 0 records the status would be green . then the activation step in the process chain would also be carried out smoothly.
In this way you need not manually change any request status to green . Saves you time.
regards
Venky

Process chain stopped in the middle ?

I have a PC in production and its really strange that after the DTP step ,ODS activation step in the PC did not run and the chain status shows in the yellow color, I know if it fails in the activation step we need to see the error and fix it. But here neither its yellow which means running and not red, its just did not execute and the dtp is successful....and there are a lot of chains next to this chain. SO how to make it run, and what do i do ? there is no job running in the SM37 related to it. Please help.

Hi ,
Please perform the below steps, this will solve your issue.
Step 1: At the step where the process chain is stuck
Go to display messages -chain- copy variant, instance & start date
Step 2: Go to se16, table rspcprocesslog  execute
Copy as below,
Variant-- variante
Instance instance
Batch datestart date
This will give a single entry in the table rspcprocesslog.
Step 3: Go to se37, input FM RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH and execute
Copy
Rspcprocesslog u2013 instance -
I_INSTANCE.
Rspcprocesslog u2013variante -
I_VARIANT
Rspcprocesslog u2013 logid----I_LOGID
Rspcprocesslog u2013 type ---I_TYPE
Enter u2018Gu2019 for parameter I_STATE and press execute (F8).
After executing the above FM, with the above stated parameters, 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.
