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 chains for loading data to target is not functioning

Hi SAPians,
Recently, we have upgraded the firmware on IBM P590 with the help of IBM on Saturday i.e. 06/12/2008 (The firmware of P5-590 was SF235_209. It was upgraded to SF240_XXX) and since then the process chains for loading data to targets are not functioning properly. We have stopped all the SAP services, database services & OS services from our end and services have been rebooted after firmware upgrade.
However, the problem with the process chains that load transaction data and hierarchies is solved but the chains that load master data are still not working as scheduled.
We tried to load the master data manually, by running DTP to load data to an object analysis code (attributes) the request remained YELLOW. After refreshing it several times, the request turned into RED. The error message was - PROCESSING TERMINATED (screenshot 1 attached).
To mitigate this we tried deleting the bad request and it prompted with the below message:
"Cannot lock request DTPR_4C37TCZGDUDX1PXL38LVD9CLJ of table ZANLYSIS for deletion (Message no. RSMPC178)" (screenshot 2 attached)
Please advise us how the bad request should be deleted?
Regards,
Soujanya

Hi Sowjanya,
Follow the below procedure to make yellow request to RED:
Use SE37, to execute the function module RSBM_GUI_CHANGE_USTATE
From the next screen, for I_REQUID enter that request ID and execute.
From the next screen, select 'Status Erroneous' radiobutton and continue.
This Function Module, change the status of request from Green / Yellow to RED.
Once it is RED, you can manually delete that request...
Releasing LocK
Gott Transaction Code SM12 and release the lock.
Hope It helps you.

Creation of Decision in Process Chain to load data to a SPO

Hi,
I have a question regarding adding a Decision type to my Process chain.
I want to load data to a SPO that contains 12 InfoCubes (Jan - Dec) from a DSO, but I do not want to start all 12 DTP's.
Want I am looking for is a way to only start the DTP's that load to the InfoCubes that contain current month, last month and all other data should be loaded to a Infocube (nr 13) that is not a part of the SPO so I would only have 3 DTP's running at the same time and not 13.
E.g. A delta load to the DSO contains 3 records; 1 for 2014.09, 1 for 2014.08 and 1 for 05.2013 triggers the DTP to the January InfoCube, the DTP to the August InfoCube and the DTP to the 13 Infocube.
Is this possible by using a Decision and if so how?
Kind Regards
Steffen

I haven't worked with SPOs yet, but I do work frequently with decisions, so here's my 5 cents...
In your case you wish to have your decision based on the data contained in "a delta load to the DSO". I'm assuming you're talking InfoPackage here, because you wish to execute the DTP's afterwards.
So basically you need to determine which "months" are in your incoming data packages. The only way I see that possible is via start/end routine. In your example, you would look the data package and find 3 records each with a different month, being 08.2014, 09.2014 & 05.2013. You could then "convert" these to just numbers ranging from 1 to 13. That makes it relatively "easy" to link the right DTP to the right "number".
Now, how to pass that info (those numbers) back to the "decision" process? By default you base your formula on a "system" field (see basic how to link below). I don't see how this would work in your case. You'll need to somehow export your "numbers" (most likely an internal table or a "range") to memory (or fill it in a [z-]table) and then read it back in with custom code. I haven't done that yet (at least not in the context of decision steps), but I would recommend to have a look at the "experienced" way of working document below. It won't be easy, but I think it could work.
Cheers,
Raf

Process chain while loading data into DataStoreObject

Hai
Im trying to load the data in DataStoreObject by using the process chain . I build the process chain like below
Start Process -> InfoPackage -> DataTransferProcess -> Activate DataStoreobject Data .

Hi,
try to activate again the ODS, also try to activate manually by executing the following report from SE38:
RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL
Insert just the infosource of the ODS and execute it. After this, replicate the datasource and try again to execute the chain.,

Automatically trigger the event to load data from Planning cube to Standard Cube

Hello,
We have a below set up in our system..
1. A Planning BEx query using which user makes certain entries and writes back data to the planning cube.
2. An actual reporting cube which gets data from the planning cube above.
Now, what we want to do is to automate the data load from Planning cube to Reporting cube.
This involves 2 things..
1. Change the setting " Change real time load behaviour " of the planing cube to Planning.
2. Trigger the DTP which loads data from Planning cube to reporting cube.
We want to automate the above two steps...
I have tried few things to achieve the same..
1. Created an event in SM64,
2. In the Planning cube "Manage" Screen, clicked on "Subsequent Processing" and provided the event details. ( Not sure if its the correct place to provide the event detail ).
3. Wrote a ABAP program which changes the setting of the planning cube ( " Change real time load behaviour " to Loading )
4. Created a process chain, where we have used the event as a start variant, used the ABAP program as a next step, DTP run as the last step..
This i hoped, would trigger the event as soon as a new request comes and sits in planning cube, which in turn would trigger the process chain which would load the data from Planning cube to reporting cube..
This is not working. I dont think the event is triggering, and even if does i am not sure whether it will start the process chain automatically. Any ideas please ?

hi,
try to do the transformation directly in the input cube by using CR of type exit, more details :

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

Is a save step neccessary in a Process Chain when loading hierarchies with an ABAP program?

We are loading hierarchies using the ABAP routine found here in the SDN.
We have come accross the issue where the process chain loads successfully, but does not update the hierarchy (this problem is documented in the SDN). It is not a consistent issue, but it causes problems when it does occur.
OSS note 652856 points out that a SAVE HIERARCHY step is needed after the load and before the Change Attribute run.
We have added the step to the process chain, which leads me to the question.
In using the ABAP program to load hierarchies is the addition of the Save Hierarchy step necessary?
Will that resolve the issue with hierarchies not updating?

Hi Bill,
Yes, SAVE HIERARCHY step is required when hierarchies are loaded as part of process chain. This step ensures that the hierarchy data loaded to BW has been saved. Then we have to run ACR so that these hierarchies will be activated and adjusted.
This is the reason why even the hierarchy data loaded using infopackage needs this step. This step is not required if the Infopackage is triggered manually.
This link will help you in better understanding

Input ready query is not showing loaded data in the cube

Dear Experts,
In Input ready query we have problem that it is not showing the values which was not entered by throught hat query. Is any settings in input ready query that we can do to populate the loaded data on the cube as well as data entered through Input ready query itself.
Thanks,
Gopi R

Hi,
input ready queries always should display most recent data (i.e. all green and the yellow request). So you can check the status of the requests in the real-time InfoCube. There should exist only green requests and maybe at most one yellow request.
In addition you can try to delete the OLAP cache for the plan buffer query: Use RSRCACHE to do this. The technical names of the plan buffer query can be found as follows:
1. InfoCube\!!1InfoCube, e.g. ZTSC0T003/!!1ZTSC0T003 if ZTSC0T003 is the technical name of the InfoCube
2. MPRO\!!1MPRO, e.g. ZTSC0M002/!!1ZTSC0M002 if ZTSC0M002 is the technical name of the multiprovider
If the input ready query is defined on an aggregation level using a real-time InfoCube, the first case is relevant; if the aggregation level is defined on a multiprovider the second case is relevant. If the input-ready query is defined on a multiprovider containing aggregation levels again the first case is relevant (find the real-time InfoCubes used in the aggregation level).

HOW TO STOP THE PROCESS CHAIN WHICH IS RUNNING IN THE PRODUCTION?

HI ALL,
CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW TO STOP THE PROCESS CHAIN WHICH IS RUNNING DAILY AT 5.00 PM. I NEED TO STOP THE PROCESS CHAIN FOR COUPLE OF DAYS AND THEN RESTART IT AGAIN.
cAN ANYONE TELL ME THE PROCEDURE TO STOP THE ENTIRE PROCESS CHAIN RUNNING IN THE PRODUCTION.
THANKS
HARITHA

Hi,
First and foremost let me advice you to be very careful while doing this.
For Rescheduling
RSPC> chain > Goto > Planning view and
click on Execution tab > select > Remove from Schedule and then in Maintain variant of start process reschedule for the day you require it to run.
For terminating active chain
You can start from SM37, find the process WID/PID then go to SM50 or SM51 and kill it. Once its done come back to RSMO and check the request, it should be red but again manually force to red and save by clicking on the total status button in the status tab. This shuld ensure that the process is killed properly.
The next step will be to go to targets that you were loading and remove the red requests from those targets.
Note: For source system loads you may have to check if the request is running in the source system and kill if needed and pull it again.
But for BW datamart delta loads u may have reset the datamarts in case u are going to pull the delta again.

Need FM or Tables to see Process Chain scheduled(future) date and time

Hello Gurus!
         Can anybody tell me where/How i can get the Process Chain scheduled(future) date and time..?
   I mean, I want to see at what date and time is the PC scheduled for tomarrow/next month etc... Like TBTCO-SDLSTRTDT / TBTCO-SDLSTRTTM along with its Process chain name or PC's Start varient?
I will give the points for all the answers
          Bye.. Happy New Year

Hi Anil,
You can check in SM37 by giving the job name.then you can see when that particular chain is scheduled.
Goto SM37,
Give Job name = *
       User name = *
and select job status - ready,scheduled. then F8 (Execute).
Then you can see which job is schduled at what time and date.

Loading Data from one Cube into another Cube

Hi Guys,
I am trying to load data from one cube A to another cube B. Cube A has data around 200,000 records. I generate export datasource on Cube A. Replicated the datasource and created InfoSource and activated it.
I created update rules for Cube B selecting Source as Cube A. I do have a start routine to duplicate records in Cube A. Now when I schedule load,
It stops at Processing Datapacket and says no data. Is there something wrong with the update routine or is there any other way to load form cube to cube in a simpler way?
Thanks in advance

This is the start routine to duplicate records in two currencies.
DATA: datew   TYPE /bi0/oidateto,
      datew2 TYPE rsgeneral-chavl,
      fweek   TYPE rsgeneral-chavl,
      prodhier TYPE /bi0/oiprod_hier,
      market TYPE /bic/oima_seg,
      segment TYPE /bic/oizsegment.
DATA: BEGIN OF S_DATA_PACK OCCURS 0.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE /BIC/CS8ZSDREV.
DATA: END OF S_DATA_PACK.
S_DATA_PACK[] = DATA_PACKAGE[].
REFRESH DATA_PACKAGE.
LOOP AT S_DATA_PACK.
    move-corresponding s_data_pack to DATA_PACKAGE.
    if DATA_PACKAGE-loc_currcy = 'EUR'.
      DATA_PACKAGE-netval_inv = DATA_PACKAGE-/bic/zsdvalgrc.
      DATA_PACKAGE-CURRENCY = 'USD'.
      APPEND DATA_PACKAGE.
      DATA_PACKAGE-netval_inv = DATA_PACKAGE-/bic/zsdvalloc.
      DATA_PACKAGE-CURRENCY = 'EUR'.
      APPEND DATA_PACKAGE.
    else.
      DATA_PACKAGE-netval_inv = DATA_PACKAGE-/bic/zsdvalgrc.
      DATA_PACKAGE-CURRENCY = 'USD'.
      APPEND DATA_PACKAGE.
    endif.
ENDLOOP.
This is to load Quantity field
RESULT = COMM_STRUCTURE-BILL_QTY.
This is to load Value field
RESULT = COMM_STRUCTURE-NETVAL_INV.
UNIT = COMM_STRUCTURE-currency.

To load data from a cube in SCM(APO) system to a cube in BI system.

Experts,
Please let me know whether it is possible to load data from a cube in SCM(APO) system to a cube in BI system.If so explain the steps to perform.
Thanks,
Meera

Hi,
Think in this way,
To load the data fro any source we need datasource Ok. You can genare Export data source for Cube in APO, then use that datasource for BW extraction, try like this. I think it will work, in my case I'm directly loading data from APO to BW using the DataSource sthat are genaraed on Planning Area.
Why you need to take data from APO cube?. Is there any condition for that?. If it is not mandatory, you can use the dame datasource and load the data to BW, if they have any conditions while loading the data from APO to APO cube, they you try check wherther it is possible in BW or not. If possible then you use DataSource and do the same calculation in BW directly.
Thanks

How to load data to a cube from multiple infosources ?

Hi friends,
How to load data to a cube from multiple infosources ? could u please answer this question .
thanks in advance......

Hi ,
say for example you need to load data to 1 cube from 3 info sources:
1) You need to create 3 update rules for the Cube.
2) Each time you create the update rules. Mention the name the name of the Info source. and create update rules correspondingly.
