Process chains information we need

Hi
Friends
plese send me the process chains type, how to use the process chain ypes.
plese send me any documents u having this information
Thanks

Hi narasa,
Go to the transaction RSPC there u will find create new process chain (or do F5) it will ask for process chain name and varient of start process. Once u have done this u will find start process which is default process for all chains. Then in the left pannel there is icon for process type (beside the refresh button). If u click on that it will give u a list of all possible process that u can add to ur process chain. Then just drag the process type in the right pannel giving appropriate varients. Once that process type appeared in right pannel just link that with start process and follow the same procedure for further processes to in this way make chain of processes.
Thanks in advance for any or all points assigned for this

Process Chain: Urgent help needed!!!

Hi Guru's,
I need to change the process chain:
We are currently loading the data form 000000 to 100000 in a single process but now the customer asked us to change it to 4 packages:
000000 to 250000, 250001 to 500000, etc..
Could any one help me in this pls???
your help much appreciated.
regards,
BH

Hi Varma,
    I am assuming you are using generic extractor using function module.
Create a z-control table which maintains ranges 250K records. In future use can even change the range if you want .
below is piece of code from function module
Auxiliary Selection criteria structure
data: l_s_select type srsc_s_select.
data : l_lines type i.
Maximum number of lines for DB table
statics: s_s_if type srsc_s_if_simple,
counter
          s_counter_datapakid like sy-tabix,
          counter type i.
Initialization mode (first call by SAPI) or data transfer mode
(following calls) ?
if i_initflag = sbiwa_c_flag_on.
Check DataSource validity
    case i_dsource.
      when <check your datasource name>
       when others.
        if 1 = 2. message e009(r3). endif.
        log_write 'E'                  "message type
                  'R3'                 "message class
                  '009'                "message number
                  i_dsource            "message variable 1
                  ' '.                 "message variable 2
        raise error_passed_to_mess_handler.
    endcase.
    append lines of i_t_select to s_s_if-t_select.
Fill parameter buffer for data extraction calls
    s_s_if-requnr    = i_requnr.
    s_s_if-dsource   = i_dsource.
    s_s_if-maxsize   = i_maxsize.
else.
    if s_counter_datapakid = 0.
read z-table to know the size i.e. 250K
first read
       z-ctr_frm = 0.
       z_ctr_frm = z_ctr_frm + 250000.
endif.
     if z-ctr_frm > 0.
       z_ctr_frm = z-ctr_frm + 250000.
       z_ctr_to   = z_ctr_frm + 250000.
    endif.
***Generate data packets
    select data from table with the number range variables z_ctr-frm and z_ctr_to.
    s_counter_datapakid = s_counter_datapakid + 1.
endif.
ENDFUNCTION.
I hope this help you.

Process Chain Issue Help needed!!!!!!!!!

Hi all,
Please help me in creating process chains, Requirement is
Process Chain1
Infosource --> ODS1 (Delta Load) From ODS1 --> Cube 1 (Delta Load)
Process Chain 2
from same above ODS1 --> ODS2(Full Load) and ODS2 --> Cube2(full Load)
What is the sequential flow?
I created the chain 1 as
Delete Index(Cube) > Infopacakge from Infosource to ODS1> Activate ODS1 > Update ODS1-> Generate Index(Cube).
For Chain 2
Delete Index(Cube) > Infopacakge from Infosource to ODS1> Activate ODS1 > Update ODS1->Activate ODS2 > Update ODS2> Generate Index(Cube).
My question is for Chain1 from ODS1 it should be Delta and for chain2 from ODS1 it should be full load,
i have chacked the ODS1(8ODS1) infopackages the full load infopackage data target is ODS2 and Delta Load data Target is Cube1.
Thanks in Advance,
Sudha.

Below..i believe is a better design for the process chains..
Chain 1
Start variant> Infopacakge from Infosource to ODS1> Activate ODS1 --> Delete Index(Cube) >Update ODS1-> Generate Index(Cube).
(drop cube indexes just before cube gets loaded)
Chain 2
Start variant> <b>Infopacakge from Infosource to ODS1> Activate ODS1</b> > Update ODS1->Activate ODS2--> Delete Index(Cube) > Update ODS2> Generate Index(Cube).
(i think we can remove 2 steps(in bold)..right?ODS1 already got loaded in first chain..just we need to keep dependency that 2nd chain runs after the 1st chain has run)..
U can have a 3rd chain..a meta chain like..
start variantchain 1chain 2..
(for both chain 1 and chain 2..i mean the local chains...set start variant parameter as 'start using meta chain or API)..
doing so..chain 2 will kick off only after chain 1 is successfully run..
(also check if the process type 'further update from ODS to data targets..allows you to choose data targets..and choose full/delta..i doubt it..
if it doesnt allow..then place the infopackage steps instead of this 'further update' process..i have done this earlier..)

Can't able to release transport request which has process chain information

Hi Experts,
Can any one come accross the similar issue? . If so I am eager to know the fix for it.
I have collected my process chain in a transport request and when I am trying to release the same for import to another system, I get the following error message.
Error Message: some object (start varient for process chain and DTP process) is missing in the transport request.
BUT THE MENTIONED OBJECT IS COLLECTED AND I CAN SEE UNDER MY REQUEST.
But still i get the error message. Not sure where the problem is.
Hope there might be some solution to resolve the issue.
Thanks and Regards,
Saravanan.

Hi All,
I have tried all the options which you all suggested, but still i face the same issue.
I tried collecting it through transport connection through RSA1.
Right click on request/task.
Please let me know any other solution to resolve.
Are there any check will be happened at database or somewhere else when collecting the transport?
Thanks and Regards,
Saravanan.

Process Chains - Like to see elements and affected info providers

Hi,
I am wondering if there is any possibility to get an overview of all active process chains with their process elements/steps and the affected objects within these steps/process chains (like infocubes, ODS etc.). In principle it's a process chain detailed view (like in RSPC chart) but not as a chart and not for one PC only but in a list for all PCs. So far I took a look into various tables like RSPCCHAIN (master table for process chains), RSPCVARIANT (attributes for certain process step types of a process chain), and RSPCVARIANTATTR (certain process types) but want to avoid any further effort to combine all these in Excel if there is an easier way to get that information.
Background of my query is that we have a certain set of high-priority process chains and I need to know all involved info providers (Info Cubes, ODS, PSA etc.) to give the Operations guy a heads-up whenever something is not fine with these providers. So having a query where I can input the set of PCs would be great.
Any feedback is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Oliver.
P.S.: An overview of tables where this information resides (between RSPCCHAIN, RSPCVARIANT, and RSPCVARIANTATTR) would also be helpful.
Edited by: Oliver Baer on Feb 25, 2009 9:33 AM

Thanks for your replies. Transactions RCPCM and RZ20 are pretty helpful for monitoring purposes.
Anyway, for my described purpose I have designed a query with the QuickViewer (SQVI) joining tables RSPCCHAIN (Process Chains), RSPCCHAINT (PC description), and RSPCVARIANT (attributes for the steps within a PC). When I filter for field RSPCVARIANT-FNAM = "DTA-CUBE" OR "DTA-ODSO" I get all Cubes and ODS for a given process chain (RSPCVARIANT-LOW). Only drawback so far is that I don't get the explosion of meta chains and have to select each of the included chains separately but that's feasible as we don't have many nested chains.
Regards,
Oliver.

Process chain and Control M

Hi Gurus
We are designing process chain for our BW solution.
We have identified the dependancies of various loads which includes flat file loads and loads from R/3.
Now we would like to control ERP and BW jobs by Control M .
I have the following questions:
1. Which portion of BW process chain do we need to plug in to Control M. ? Do we need to connect the Meta chain to control M or different process chains to Control M?
2.When we create Process chain for BW, what is the best practice? Is it good to create small chains and connect them via Meta chain? or we have to create small chains only?
3. Can we include R/3 extraction Jobs and V3 Jobs in our BW process chain? so that they will trigger when we run the process chain?
4. If we decide to run V 3 jobs after every half an hour on R3 side then how often we have to extract data to BW? and how to catch correct delta without missing single record?
I would appreciate if you can help me with your knowledge.
Thanks
Kris

Hi Kris,
Control M is a third party scheduling tool provided by BMC software.
1) You have option to either include a meta chain or individual chains in Control M .
2) It depends on how your data is extracted. If you have any dependecy jobs on sourcre system, then it is better to create small process chians and include them along with your dependecy jobs in Control M
3)you can include R/3 dependency jobs and V3 jobs in Control M. Once those jobs are finished you can run BW process chains via Control M.
4)You have several scheduling options availalbe in control M to take care of your BW and R/3 jobs.
V3 jobs collect data from R/3 application tables and fill R/3 delta queue(RSA7). when you run BW process chain it will collect all the data available from R/3 delta queue.
If both jobs are running at same time, then it is better to apply some wait time on BW jobs(in process chians).
hope this helps

Process Chain changing start time?

hi guysm i have 76 process chains that run every day in BWD system, so i removed all the timings from the start variant and in the infopackages, but it seems some process chains are still running, i did do the following steps on chnaging the time from a particular time to immediate, Save, Check and activate, i didnt schedule it as i dont want it to load right away .
do i have to hit check , save , schedule once i change the time from a particular time to immediate load or activate will work as well.?
what else could be the cause of process chains still loading even there are no events, or time given to any process chains at all.
i went to sm 37 and i can see the bi process are all running at the time they were orignially set up on.
so any suggestions would help,
is there any way from sm 37 i can tell which process chain is triggered off?
thanks
Dante(devils never cry)

Dante, the start conditions on the infopackages do not affect when they run in process chains. The process chains have their own start job. If you want to change the start time of a process chain, then you need to go to maintain the process chain, right-click on the Start process and select Displaying Scheduled Job(s)... . Here you will see a job called BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER. Change the start conditions of this job.
The start job for all process chains is BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER, so using SM37 may be difficult to identify which BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER job is associated to a particular chain.
Also, to let you know, each process in a process chain has an associated job. All jobs called BI_PROCESS_xxxxx are jobs associated with a process chain.
Eg.
BI_PROCESS_LOADING is an infopackage.
BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER is the start job
Does this help?

Error in transporting process chain

Hi
i added two DTP's in the process chain and transported. The transport ended with errors.
The following is the error msg:
Results of check for process AND EVEN_4CEJM320EVCIY0L5L62W61JVB in chain PC_BI_TD_POSDM_CAST:
Process variant AND EVEN_4CEJM320EVCIY0L5L62W61JVB does not exist in version A
Results of check for process AND EVEN_4CEJM320EVCIY0L5L62W61JVB in chain PC_BI_TD_POSDM_CAST:
Process variant AND EVEN_4CEJM320EVCIY0L5L62W61JVB does not exist in version A
I saved and activated the process chain but still transport to QA ending with errors.
When i saved the process chain in DEV, i am getting the msg:
Version 'M' of chain PC_BI_TD_POSDM_CAST was saved without checking
What does that mean?
REgards
Annie

Hi
If I got your question properly, Your AND Event is not Collected at the time of Transport.
Try to Re Export the Process chain with all necessary grouped objects.
Version 'M' of chain PC_BI_TD_POSDM_CAST was saved without checking
What does that mean?
Try to Check-- Save and then Activate and Then Transport .
Please follow the Sequence for the transport, You may recheck the flow again
Transport Sequence
Info Objects,
DSO
INFO CUBE
TRANSFORMATIONS
MP
INFOSETS
PROCESS CHAINS
QUERIES
Objects need to be transported with respect to their
dependencies
InfoProviders will bring in all relevant InfoObjects
Importing of Global variables is dependant on their reference
InfoObject being already active
Queries, workbooks and roles are dependant on InfoProviders
and InfoObjects being active
Use the Transport Connection Tool to analyze your objects
Transport all customer-defined packages (dev classes) before
transporting objects
Transport InfoProvider(s) using the "In Data Flow Before" or
"Only Necessary Objects" grouping option
Transport all Global Variables with primary package
assignment
i.e. ZBW
Transport BEx objects with appropriate individual package
assignment
Transport roles and workbooks together.
Hope it helps

How to add Abap program in process chain to check the another process chain status and do accordingly

Hello All,
My requirement is related to process chain 1 . I have one process chain in that i have to put abap program in middle of that chain . This program will check the status of one another process chain 2 status ( whether it was completed or it is going on). if it is completed then continue the Process chain 1 to further activity else wait to complete Process chain 2 .
Here i have to use process chain 2 as a parameter.
Kindly provide me solution .
Regards
Saurabh

Hi Saurabh,
You need to create ABAP program in which you check the values for required process chain in
following table
RSPCLOGCHAIN (Feilds ANALYZED_STATUS LOG_ID)
Depend on values you can trigger next process or you can wait unitil this process chain complete.you need to check status from table using ABAP.
If you are not aware about how to write ABAP program then take help from ABAP Team.

Query on using EVENTS in process chains.

Hi,
Process Chain A on completion posts a Trigger using FM - BP_EVENT_RAISE.
Is there an ABAP program to check for the specific event completion from process chain A. Basically , we need an FM or program that reads the event status ( whether event raised or not ) and accordingly triggers another process chain.
We need this fuctionality in process chain B coz we would be using an AND condition that checks for the event trigger from process chain A as well as Step 1 in chain B.
Thanks,

Welcome to forum.
Hari,
1) Let us say ,Process Chain A, will triggger an event EVENT_A for an example.
instead of one evnt use 2 events, EVENT_A on success and EVENT_B on failure.
2) Link Program A to EVENT_A and Program B o EVENT_B
I hope it helps..

Hari
if this helps pls.. assign some points..

How to trigger a local process chain to run manually

Dear Experts,
In my company, I have a Daily process chain.
In this Daily process chain, it contains many other local process chains which are grouped by modules.
For example, I have created the following 3 process chains:
- Accounts Receivables Process Chain which contains all the required process for loading FIAR data.
- Accounts Payables Process Chain which contains all the required process for loading FIAP data.
- Inventory Process Chain which contains all the required process for loading Stocks data.
These 3 process chains are scheduled one after the other in the main process chain which is called Daily Process Chain.
FIAR needs to be successful before FIAP can run and Inventory chain will run only after FIAP is successful.
Normally it runs without any problems.
But recently, when the previous chain is successful, the next process chain does not get triggered to run.
In the end, I have to manually execute the remaining process chains to start running.
With this, all data are loaded, but the Daily Process Chain status for the day is yellow because it is not complete.
Is there a program or method which I can execute or use to trigger the process chain to continue to run in the Daily Process Chain? If there is, please let me know so that I can avoid having to run the process chains manually one by one.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Shunhui.

Trigger a process chain(PC) after successfull completion of two other PCs

Hi All,
My requirement is to trigger a Process Chain only after successfull completion of two other process chain which are already scheduled to run at different times.
Please tell me how to achieve this into SAP-BW 3.5
Thanks
Jharna

Hi
It is very simple, I'm doing the same.
Insert Remote Process Chain at the end of the actual process chain and call the other process chain, here you need to give source , destination and process chain name in Remote process chain.
try it, it will work.

How to change process chain in SAP APO, in RSCP tcode.

HI SAP APO Experts
I am from SAP ABAP background, I need to change a 'AND' operator in process chain in RSCP tranaaction in SAP APO.
I dont have any idea how to change process chain.
Could you please help me how to change process chain in SAP APO in RSCP tcode.
Appreciate your help or comments.
Sandeep..

Hi Sandeep,
The t-code RSCP does not exist in SAP APO. The correct t-code is RSPC.
Step 1:- In RSPC t-code, select the process chain which you need to change.
Step 2:- Double click on it.
Step 3:- It will display the various programmes attached to the process chain. Go to change mode by clicking on the change indicator (Control + F9)
Step 4:- Select the programme area where you need to do the correction or change. Double click on it.
Step 5:- It will take you to the programme and its selection contents. Make the relevant changes. You can directly carry out the change in se38 also if there is variant kind of changes for that particular programme.
Step 6:- Once the changes are done, save the changes and press F3 button which will take you to the home page of the process chain
Step 7:- Save again so that the change in the programme alongwith the process chain will get saved.
