Process chains scehduling authorization

Hey guys
just gave an outsourced team authorizations to work around with their process chains (objet S_RS_PC), but they still don't have authorizations to modify the scheduling... do you know which object is missing in their authorzation profile ?

Hi,
Goto PFCG -> Create profile -> Goto Authorization tab ->Change authorization -> Edit ->Insert auth. from template ->Select S_RS_ROPAD BW Role: Administrator (Productive System)
Hope that helps.

Authorization for Process Chains in BW 3.5 (2004)

Hi all,
I wanted to know if there is any way to limit actions on process chains. I would like to give some users display only access to process chains. Is that possible?
Thanks

Hi,
In your system go to
'Transport Connection' tool-->
Click on 'Object Changeability' pushbutton-->
And for Object types RSPC and ISIP make "changeable/Not Changable" .
Note: This will work only if your system is lockect aganist the changes as it is normally in Production.
Also check the below links:
1) Authorisation for process chains
2) Authorization Object for Process Chain
3)http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/35/c7e442e3c15704e10000000a155106/frameset.htm

so what are the authorizations i need to run the process chain in my system. And how can i set all those authorizations to my user-id. I have all authorization rights .
Pls let me knw

Hi,
Authorizations for Process Chains
Use
You use authorization checks in process chain maintenance to lock the process chain, and the processes of the chain, against actions by unauthorized users.
·        You control whether a user is allowed to perform specific activities.
·        You control whether a user is allowed to schedule the processes in a chain.
The authorization check for the processes in a chain runs when the system performs the check. This takes place upon scheduling or during synchronous execution. The check is performed in display mode. The check is performed for each user that schedules the chain; it is not performed for the user who executes the chain. The user who executes the chain is usually the BI background user. The BI background user automatically has the required authorizations for executing all BI process types. In attribute maintenance for the process chain, you can determine the user who is to execute the process chain.
See also: Display/Maintenance of Process Chain Attributes ® Execution User.
Features
For the administration processes that are bundled in a process chain, you require authorization for authorization object S_RS_ADMWB.
To work with process chains, you require authorization for authorization object S_RS_PC. You use this authorization object to determine whether process chains can be displayed, changed or executed, and whether logs can be deleted. You can use the name of the process chain as the basis for the restriction, or restrict authorizations to chains using the application components to which they are assigned.
Display/Maintain Process Chain Attributes
Use
You can display technical attributes, display or create documentation for a process chain, and determine the response of process chains during execution.
Features
You can display or maintain the following attributes for a process chain:
Process Chain ® Attribute ® ...
Information
Description
( Rename)
You can change the name of the process chain.
Display Components
Display components are the evaluation criterion in the process chain maintenance. Assigning the process chains to display components makes it easier to access the chain you want.
To create a new display component, choose Assign Display Components in the input help window and assign a technical name and description for the display component in the Display Grouping dialog box that appears.
Documents
You can create and display documents for a process chain.
For more information, see Documents.
Last Changed By
Displays the technical attributes of the process chain:
·        When it was last changed and who by
·        When it was last activated and who by
·        Object directory entry
Evaluation of Process Status
If you set this indicator, all the incorrect processes in this chain and in the overall status of the run are evaluated as successful; if you have scheduled a successor process upon error or always.
The indicator is relevant when using metachains: Errors in the processes of the subchains can be evaluated as unimportant for the metachain run. The subchain is evaluated as successful, despite errors in such processes of the subchain. If, in the metachain, the successor of the subchain is scheduled upon success, the metachain run continues despite errors in unimportant processes of the subchain.
Mailing and alerting are not affected by this indicator and are still triggered for incorrect processes if they have an upon error successor.
Polling Indicator
With this indicator you can control the response of the main process for distributed processes. Distributed processes, such as the load process, are characterized as having different work processes involved in specific tasks.
With the polling indicator you determine whether the main process needs to be kept until the actual process has ended.
By selecting the indicator:
-         A high level of process security is guaranteed, and
-         External scheduling tools can be provided with the status of the distributed processes.
However, the system uses more resources; and a background process is required.
Monitoring
With the indicator in the dialog box Remove Chain from Automatic Monitoring?, you can specify that a process chain be removed from the automatic monitoring using CCMS.
By default CCMS switches on the automatic process chain monitoring.
For more information about the CCMS context Process Chains, see the section BW Monitor in CCMS.
Alerting
You can send alerts using alert management when errors occur in a process chain.
For more information, see Send Alerts for Process Chains.
Background Server
You can specify here on which server or server group all of the jobs of a chain are scheduled. If you do not make an entry, the background management distributes the jobs between the available servers.
Processing Client
If you use process chains in a client-dependent application, you can determine here in which client the chain is to be used. You can only display, edit, schedule or execute the chain in this client.
If you do not maintain this attribute, you can display, edit, schedule or execute the process chain in all clients.
Process variants of type General Services that are contained in a process chain with this attribute set will only be displayed in the specified client.
This attribute is transported. You can change it by specifying an import client during import. You must create a destination to the client set here in the target system for the import post processing (transaction RSTPRFC) The chain is activated after import and scheduled, if necessary, in this client.
Execution User
In the standard setting a BI background user executes the process chain (BWREMOTE).
You can change the default setting so that you can see the user that executes the process chain and therefore the processes, in the Job Overview. You can select the current dialog user who schedules the process chain job, or specify a different user.
The setting is transported.
The BI background user has all the necessary authorizations to execute all BI process types. Other users must assign themselves these authorizations so that authorization errors do not occur during processing.
Job Priority
You use this attribute to set the job priority for all of the jobs in a process chain.

Monitoring process chains: authorizations

Hi,
We have an issue about monitoring of BW process chains.
We have a support desk in our IT department doing first-level support on basically all our it systems.
The support desk have only limited SAP knowledge (they can do simple things like unlocking users, etc.).
Currently our BW developers are also responsible of day-to-day monitoring of BW process chains.
We would like to move this task to the support desk.
The support desk will be responsible of identifying problems and maybe doing simple corrective actions (restarting a process chain?).
In case of "real" problems the support desk will hand over the issue to our BW developers.
We have tried to create a role giving access to transaction rspcm for the support desk.
But we have not been able to restrict the authorizations.
From rspcm it is possible to go into process chain maintenance, and we would like to make sure that no one makes changes to the process chains by accident.
We would like to have a role giving "display only" access to monitoring process chains.
Anyone with experience in doing this?
/Casper

Hi Vijay,
We have tried adding only the transaction RSPCM (object S_TCODE) and the object S_RS_ADMWB as suggested by you.
The problem is that when "clicking" on a process chain in transaction RSPCM authorizations for transaction RSPC is required.
We have then added transaction RSPC to object S_TCODE.
When displaying the process chain, the user is not able to maintain info packages (this must be controlled by S_RS_ADMWB?).
But the user are still able to maintain the other process types (attribute change run as an example) ???
Are we missing another auth.object?
Best regards,
Casper

Authorizations and Process Chains

Hi All,
Can any one help me in learning Authorizations and Process Chains. Could you please send me some real time documents on the following.
1. How would we get the requirements from the client to create Authorizations? What info will they give us basically to create them?
2. The same with Process Chains.
Could someone plese send me the requirements documents(on authorizations and process chains) they get from the client to know it from a real time perspective.
My email ID: [email protected]
Many thanx in Advance...
Best Regards,
Nimma.

Hi A.M.S,
Thanx for ur reply.
However, I am looking for some real time specifications which we get from client just to know how the requirements will come to us and then the steps to be followed and so on...
I would be grateful if you could send me some of them.

Error while activating Process Chains

Hi all,
while activating the Process Chains, i am getting the following error "Job BI_PROCESS_PSAPROCESS could not be scheduled. Termination with returncode 8"
when i double click on the error msg, i got the following help msg: "
Message no. RSPC065
Diagnosis
Program RSPROCESS is to be scheduled as job BI_PROCESS_PSAPROCESS under user ALEREMOTE.
Can any one please show some way to solve this problem? please do this favor, i have been suffering with error for a long time.
Points will be given
Thanks
Ganesh

Hi,
Just analyze the error message that you get while activating the PC, don't give any server name.If you are trying to run process chain using Flat file, it won't work,
and you should have source system R/3 or you have own datasources in BW system itself at that toime you can use PC to extract data. If your source system is Flat ile, it won't work. other wise you should place your flat file in application server, using AL11 tcode.
OSS : 511475
Symptom
You cannot schedule or perform any batch jobs with the BW or source system background user.
The error RSPC 065 occurs in the process chains:"Job could not be scheduled, termination with return code 8"
Other terms
RSPC065
Reason and Prerequisites
The user type is
"CPIC" up to 4.6B
"Communication" as of 4.6C
This user type may not execute or start any batch jobs, irrespective of the user authorizations.
Solution
Set the type of background user to
"Background" up to 4.6B
"System" as of 4.6C
This user type corresponds to the "Communication" type and may also perform background functions.
Through the Customizing, the BW user is automatically created by mistake as a communication user.Depending on your BW system release, you can solve this problem as follows:
BW 2.0B
 Import Support Package 24 for 2.0B (BW2.0B patch24 or SAPKW20B24) into your BW system. The Support Package is available once note 456551 with the short text "SAPBWNews BW 2.0B Support Package 24", which describes this Support Package in more detail, has been released for customers.
BW 2.1C
 Import Support Package 16 for 2.1C (BW2.1C patch16 or SAPKW21C16) into your BW system. The Support Package is available once note 456566 with the short text "SAPBWNews BW 2.1C Support Package 16" has been released for customers.
BW 3.0A
 Import Support Package 8 for 3.0A (BW3.0A patch08 or SAPKW30A08) into your BW system. The Support Package is available once note 452632 with the short text "SAPBWNews BW 3.0A Support Package 08" has been released for customers.

BI IP Executing planning sequence via process chain not possible

Hi,
we use BI IP and have defined a process chain (RSPC) with value type process planning sequence. When we execute it, we get error message
"Inconsistent input parameter (parameter: <unknown>, value <unknown>)"
When we execute this planning sequence via the modeller or via SE38 RSPLS_PLSEQ_EXECUTE everything works fine. I thougt the cause could be the user of the job itself (job is executed with different user, and variant of planning sequence is user-dependent!), but I changed the user in the job itself as well without results.
any thoughts?
regards

Hi,
I executed with my user and have a SAP_ALL authorization. Perhaps it could be because we use authorisation with the old method (4.0) (-> I'm not sure on this). I also think it has to do with authorization. I'll check this out with our authorization consultant.

One of the APD Process Chains fails.

Hi All,
I have created two different process chain (PC1 and PC2 for example)which use program RSAN_PROCESS_EXECUTE to execute the two diiferent APD (APD1 and APD2 for example) . PC1/PC2 executes APD1/APD2 respectively.Both the process chain have the same trigger event.
The issues is that only one of the process runs successfully and the other fails at the program RSAN_PROCESS_EXECUTE
For example if the PC1 runs PC2 fails at the program RSAN_PROCESS_EXECUTE and vice versa.
The Error message it displays is
1) Job started     S     00     516
2) Step 001 started (program RSPROCESS, variant &0000000155350, user ID ALEREMOTE)      S     00     550
3) Spool request (number 0000030567) created without immediate output       S     SY     355
4) Processing completed with errors. See spool list     E     RSAN_PR     22
5) Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE     A     00     564
Thanks
Rajiv

hi,
To check the detailed error message for failure of APD, check in RSANWB, goto that APD and click on monitor.
You will find the spool over there.
Check the error message and let us know, so that we can try to help you out.
It can be due to authorization issue or due to low memory.

Process chain scheduling error( Job BI_PROCESS_DROPINDEX could not schedule

Hi,
I am scheduling the process chain but it was throwing an error.
Job BI_PROCESS_DROPINDEX could not be scheduled. Termination with returncode 8
Message no. RSPC065
Diagnosis
Program RSPROCESS is to be scheduled as job BI_PROCESS_DROPINDEX under user ALEREMOTE.
System Response
Scheduling terminated with return code 8. The meanings of the return codes are as follows:
SY-SUBRC = 4:
Scheduling terminated by user
SY-SUBRC = 8:
Error when scheduling job (JOB_SUBMIT)
SY-SUBRC = 12:
Error in internal number assignment
Procedure
Check the system log for more detailed information.
Execute Function
for this i have already checked
in RSPC menu tab
Process Chain >> Attributes >> Execution User
Choose "BW Background User" which should be ALEREMOTE.
above settings i have done.
even though when i am scheduling the process chain i am getting the same error
thanks
suman

Suman,
You are not able to schedule it b'coz it is getting scheduled from user RFCUSER whereas the background user should be ALEREMOTE.
There is an option somewhere in the Menu bar in RSPC to change the Execution user. Please change that to ALEREMOTE,
Please check whether your BW user has enough authorization to run this job. The above post tell you how to do it.

Error in a process chain

Hello,
i have included one APD in a process chain. If i execute APD manually the data is getting updated in the ODS. But if i include APD in a process chain then it throws an error that You are not authorized to execute this analysis process.
Can anyone suggest how the issue can be resolved.
Thanks,

Hi,
Goto SU53 and see the missed Objects then ask Basis team to include the Missed Obejcts in your roles.

Create Package while transporting a process chain

I want to transport a process chain but while doing so it is asking for “package” name. I do not have authorization to tcode SE21 to create a Package. I checked with ABAPer and he also does not have access to SE21.
Is it mandatory to transport a process chain only via a “package”? Are there alternative methods available which you can suggest?

Thanks..
Yes, this is the first process chain we are transporting.
I tried maintaining the paramters in RSTPRFC with the below settings..
Client: BW client 001
Destination: TPBWMANDTRFC
User: ALEREMOTE
PWD: ************
I want to know whether the details of teh destination are correct. If so, are these settings need to be maintained in QA and Prod systems as well?
Thanks and Regards,

Warnings while transporting a process chain

Dear all,
I am getting the below warning message when I am transporting my process chain into Quality. Due to this, the PC is now in inactive version in the target system.
The logs shows the below message
No destination maintained in target client 001 -> Not activated
Message no. RSPC085
Diagnosis
When activating a process chain, this is checked and scheduled. Both the checking of a process chain and its scheduling require that
1. the function is executed in the target client of the import and
2. the user executing the function has the appropriate authorizations.
This is usually the case for the BW background user
The function can be executed in the target client if an RFC logon occurs in the target client. An RFC destination must be predefined for this purpose. This destination is used for logon to the target client from client 000 during import postprocessing.
This destination does not exist in this system.
System Response
The process chain will not be activated, which means that it will not be checked, scheduled, or saved in an active version. The process chain will only be adjusted to the local situation (for example, key changes with objects that are dependent on the source system), and will not be saved in a modified version.
Procedure
Create a destination for the import postprocessing.
Can some one please help on this.
Thanks and Regards,
Srinivas
