Process in Process chain yellow instead green

Experts,
since a few days we face the following problem in our productive BW machine:
in process chains specific process steps (mainly infoPackages and DTPs) remain
yellow although the InfoPackage/DTP itself is green. This leads to the situation that the chain
does not continue.
Has anyone faced a similar poblem and can povide a solutiont? what's wrong here?
Best regards
Stefan

Hi Stefan,
Check if there are any other infopackage/DTp loads for this DSO/ info cube was running at the same time or may be a bit earlier due to which load into the Data target was not being successful and remained in YELLOW status forever.
try using the FM RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH to manually change the status of the PC to green.

Set process chain status to green despite an error

Hi everybody,
I've made a process chain with an ODS activation. If there's an error, an AND process comes with a message to users.
When an error occurs on the ODS activation, the process chain ends like I want but his status is red.
How can I do to set the status to green ? Is that possible ?
Thanks

Ok,
In that case it can be simplier than that.
You need after activation of ODS in your chain have two branches, one with error and another one with success.
In the case of the success the branch is connected to the rest of the chain and the rest of the chain will continue and remain green status for that chain as the overall result of the chain.
In the case of error the new branch is connected to a process that will always terminate with sucess. As an example you could create a variant for roll-up of aggregates of an Infocube. In these variant do not select any InfoCube and mark the option End Process Sucessfully if No Aggregates Exist. This will always force this process to OK, green status, and therefore will always end your chain as green status even when the ODS activation fails
Hope this helps.

Process chain can't activate ods

Hi all,
I have a Process chain like this.
http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/image.php?34737b7ab5.jpg
after the process chain has been scheduling the data loading process run very good. But it's stuck at the activate ODS. The ODS can't be activated so the data can't fill into the infoCube.
Is my Process chain well defined?
Does anyone know how to solve the problem?
Regards,
Chuong Hoang

Hi Charan and Srinivas,
when I check the request of ODS the request, which has been made by the process chain, it is green.
"Call log" of that request, them all green.
but it just has one tab:
> Status During Load / 15.01.2008 / 08:31:16
"Load status set to "started" for DataStore object 0CPR_O02"
instead of 2 tab like I load by hand:
> Status During Load / 15.01.2008 / 08:31:16
"Load status set to "started" for DataStore object 0CPR_O02"
> Activation of Data / 15.01.2008 / 10:35:32
Maybe the problem happen in the "Active data store Obj"
waiting for your advise.

Run Process Chain Manually

Hi Experts
I have about 10 ODS's for which data is being extracted from R/3. The user may or may not make changes to the data in R/3.
Client does not want to click on 10 different start button of infopackages.
Client doesnt want a full upload daily so i cant schedule the process chain at a particular time.
What I want is on a single click or something like that all the ODS should take data from their respective tables from R/3.
What options do i have to implement it?
Please help

Akshay Chonkar

Hi Akshay,
Your message can be considered in two ways.
1.) If you are running delta extractions into DSO's then, you can run the extraction job by embedding the Infopackages into Process Chains and scheduling them to run on a particular time daily.
2.) If you are running full updates, you can still include all the infopackages into Process Chains. As you said, client doesn't want to run the Process Chain daily, it means client would be knowing when the extraction job needs to be run. So, you can execute the Process Chain "Immediately" instead of periodic scheduling.
Hope this could have cleared your query to some extent.

Scheduling Process Chains through Jobs

Hi All,
I have a question regarding scheduling of process chains using Jobs created in SM36.
In our project we are not using Meta Chains to run the individual Process Chains.
Instead jobs have been created for each chain and the jobs are scheduled one after another and dependencies are maintained (e.g. Job A depends on Job B)
However, on scheduling, we find that even before Job B completes Job A gets triggered and both the Process Chains start running in parallel instead of waiting for the completion of the first Chain.
Any solution for this ??
Thanks
Sam

Hi,
I can suggest one method using Events...
Start
           |
      Load-Cube A
          |
    After Success raise Event (This is Event Program, you need to insert)
After Event the dependent Process Chain will trigger
Start
           |
      Load-Cube B
          |
    After Success raise Event (This is Event Program, you need to insert) -->If you need
Create Events in SM64 and use in below Program..see the sample code.
REPORT ZE_SIT_RP.
DATA: EVENTID LIKE TBTCJOB-EVENTID.
DATA: EVENTPARM LIKE TBTCJOB-EVENTPARM.
EVENTID = 'ZE_SIT'.
EVENTPARM = 'ZEP_SIT'.
CALL FUNCTION 'RSSM_EVENT_RAISE'
EXPORTING
    I_EVENTID                    = EVENTID
    I_EVENTPARM                  = EVENTPARM
* EXCEPTIONS
*   BAD_EVENTID                  = 1
*   EVENTID_DOES_NOT_EXIST       = 2
*   EVENTID_MISSING              = 3
*   RAISE_FAILED                 = 4
*   OTHERS                       = 5
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

BWCCMS on process chains

Hello,
I scheduled a lot of process chains to run every night and in the morning, I look at BWCCMS transaction in order to know which process chain have failed (I can immediately see the red Process chains).
My problem is that a process chain is in red if it has failed one day, not necessarly the night before.
Is it possible to delete the old proces chain request in red in the BWCCMS ?
or to select only the process chains of the last 1 or 2 days ?
Or to change the old process chain status in green after we have corrected all the problems of the process chain in error ?
Thanks to help me as I can't do anything else for the moment than expanding all the subtrees of the BWCCMS.
Vanessa ROULIER

SAP Have provided a solution to this. If you use the menu bar button, "Open Alerts". This takes you to an alternate view of the chains. You can then select the chain in error and click on the "Complete Alerts" button. This will bring up another screen where you confirm the complete. This will then change it to Green.
You can toggle between "Open Alerts" and "Current Status" to compare.
I complete the chains once i have resolved the errors, so that the next day, anything that is red in the "Open Alerts" view is a new error.

BW: Not getting Dump For Program error in Process Chain

I have one issue regarding Master data loading issue in BW(3.5).
My business flow like we have received data from server A and Server A extract data from Server B and
Server B which is extract data from source(R/3).
Flow like this R/3-->Server B-->Server A(ETL) -
> My Server.
We have a mater data process chain and that chain we have have the source system Server A but in the process chain one process is there which is fethces data like global transport e.g UOM,factory calender etc through Custom program directly from Server B.
Oneday what happened On that process the process chain Yellow since more than 16 hrs.Once nextday process chain trigger the process chain runs sucessfuly.
But lastdays process chain paticular process stills remains yellow?
We are not getting any dumps and even if from Server A there is no logs then anyone could please tell me what is reason and how to solve it.
Note: it will be helpful for me if any one know how to check dump for program errors in Process chain as narated issue.

Guys, I am also facing the same issue.
When DTP is completed successfully, it has the job log blow :
Job started
Step 001 started (program RSPROCESS, variant &0000000391261, user ID BWREMOTE)
Performing check and potential update for status control table
Status 'Executable' (user BWREMOTE)
Status 'Active' (user BWREMOTE)
Program RSBATCH_EXECUTE_PROZESS successfully scheduled as job BIDTPR_335754_1 with ID 06532200
Job finished
When it fails or remain yelllow for long time and then turn into red.
Job started
Step 001 started (program RSPROCESS, variant &0000000391306, user ID BWREMOTE)
Performing check and potential update for status control table
Status 'Executable' (user BWREMOTE)
Status 'Active' (user BWREMOTE)
EXTRACTION OF DATAPACKAGE 000001
EXTRACTION OF DATAPACKAGE 000002
Job finished
The question is, why the program RSBATCH_EXECUTE_PROZESS is not scheduled. Is it because there is no free resource? Or poor response from SAP ECC?
Finally what does "EXTRACTION OF DATAPACKAGE 000001" mean? Its not scheduled?

Process chain errror handling

Hi Experts,
One of my process chain failed and it includes locan process chain which is failed and message is :
"Start Infopackage (infopackage number)"
what should I do in this case? simply repair?

Hi Pia,
Right click on local PC(process chain) ,,,,,,,,,,Display messages,,,,,,,,,, go to the failed process,,,,,,, right clik on he fail process,,,,,,,,, click on display messages,,,,,,, you will directly go to manage screen,,,,,,,, Set the QM status to red in status tab,,,,,,,,delete the request ,,,,,,,,,, reload the data data i.e schedule start,,,,,You will get message request again click yes,,,,,, your problem get resolved,,,,,,,,if you want to set the process chain status to green,,,,, you need to use FM ,,,,,,,if you need any further clarification,,,,,, lot of post are there in SDN.

Process in Process chain that shows yellow inspite of being green

Hi,
I have a process chain where one of the processes shows yellow when I look at it in RSMON log view. In the process monitor however it has status 'green'. also the chain is set up in such a manner that the next process does not start unless this current process has a status of red or green. But the next process started and has green status in both RSMON and process monitor. When i click on the context menu for the process that shows Yellow, I get an extra option of 'End process again'. Could anybody please tell me what this option does and why the process which is completed still showing yellow.
Thanks.

Process Chain Status Red, DTP status yellow, DTP is green from inside

Hello All,
I have a problem where the Process Chain status is red, but the process(DTP) status is yellow.
When I right click on the yellow process there is no error message and the DTP is green in Process Monitor.
But the chain did not complete and the rest of the process steps are grey.
After 20 minutes the Process Chain ran again(automatically after new data arrived) and this time without errors and it went green.
My question is, how to proceed with the red Process chain and complete the further process and make it green.
Regards
Alex

hi,
There are scenarios where you need to change status of a process chain or a particular step in process chain.
You might need to change the status in the cases where we need mark these steps successful so that dependent steps get processed. There are other scenarios where one needs to change the status of a single step in the process chain or status of whole process chain.
Step by step instructions on change process chain status
1. Right click on the failed step in the process chain monitor and go to displaying messages
2. Go to u2018Chainu2019 tab and note down variant, instance and start date
3. Go to SE16 and the table RSPCPROCESSLOG and enter variant, instance and start dates from step 2 and note down log_id, type, variant, instance.
4. Go to SE37 transaction and execute the function module RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH and enter the values from step 3 and enter the new status u2018Gu2019 in status field and execute the FM
5. This sets the status of the process chain (PC)
After you set the status using the FM, go to the monitor screen of the process chain, you will notice the changed status. Now dependent steps in the process chain will start running
Thanks

Process Chain Red 'X', Exec Infopckg Yellow, Infopckg monitor/data correct

Dear and respectable colleagues of the forum,
I am experiencing a problem in a process chain when executing infopackages. The process chain has 6 "Execute infopackage" processes. Sometimes (1 of 4 attempts average) my process chain ended with red color with 'X' status in the Process Chain Display Log View.
Reviewing within the chain Log, there is one of the "Execute infopackage" processes that appears in yellow color (it loads from direct update ODS to an infocube). However, revising the Logs for its corresponding Infopackage execution I found that it says that "Data successfully updated". Moreover, If I review the data loaded it seems to have been loaded correctly.
Then, Why does the "Execute infopackage" process in PC finishes with yellow color if the Infopackage execution itself finishes correclty?
To complete the whole scenario: I execute this process chain every night from an Abap program; the program has a Loop that traverses a table, and executes the process chain as many times as the quantity of rows in that table (table has 10 rows meaning offices). As you can understand, the chain is executed 10 times, and the error occurs in any of the 6 "Execute infopackage" processes indistinctly.
I review ST22 and SM37 for all users for the datetime when the error occured butnothing bizarre was reported. It is left to review SM21.
The following is the detail of messages.
Logs for Execute Infopackage
   Data successfully updated
Monitor of Infopackage
Details Tab
     Requests (messages): Everything OK
     Extraction (messages): Everything OK
     Transfer (IDocs and TRFC): Everything OK
     Processing (data packet): Everything OK
       Data Package 1 ( 45 Records ) : Everything OK

Dear s v desh,
I am on SAP BW 3.5, I already checked the cube and it is green - all right.
The message in the infopackage excution node in the process chain says (non-error):
"Data successfully updated"
The error message in process chain monitor (log) says:
......"Overall status: Error occurred: or: Missing messages
............Process Chains : Errors occurred"
I just realized that there is no messages at all in the infopackage monitor (log).
I have received a clue, someone asked me to review note 1396417, and I will.

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,

Process Chain load step in yellow status

We are having a process chain with a load step.The load step is run with init with data transfer.
The load step is scheduled for the next time without changing the option to delta update.So the load step turned yellow with the background job log stating that delete the init Request ID.
The process chain is scheduled for several times but the load steps are all yellow.I initialized with data transfer and then to delta update.
All the requests in data targets are green.But all the load steps are in yellow.please let me know how to make it green.I tried to change the status of the load step to green manually using the function module rsps_process_finish,but the status is not changing.
Please help me out.Thanks in advance.

Hi,
From the Cube Manage > Environment > Automatic req processing > Chk Quality status to ok , chk this option if it is not done.
this should reslve the issue.

Process chain program variant will not change from yellow...

Hello,
<b>Problem:</b>
I have a process chain that has two branches with 3 process chain variants on each leg in a parallel configuration. The process chain variants run different program variants. I am using variant object called "ABAP Program with Success/Failure " which can have a yellow, green, or red status and has status arrows that can be either red or green that connect to other process chain variants. The program executed with these variants is a customized BPS UPC_BUNDLE_EXECUTE program. When I run this PC the first variant on each leg usually hangs indefinitley on the yellow status. In the Backg tab log (double click PC variant in Log View) I can see the various SQL code that was ran. The last line of the log is an SQL-END:... Sometimes it will get past the first 2 varaints and hang on the next set of 2. Other times it will just hang on the last variant of one leg. It is very sporadic.
<b>What I have observed and tried:</b>
If I check my SM51 for the server the chain is running on I can see that the program in question is not running. If I run the same program through SE38 that runs via a PC variant it runs sucessfully in an appropriate amount of time. If I kill the process that has been running indefinitley through SM51 the process chain variant will go from a yellow status to a red as expected.
I changed they way I ran the programs from running in parallel in 2 legs to running all of them in one leg serially. That did not work. At least one program variant will hang on the yellow status.
I replaced all the variants using "ABAP Program with Success/Failure" to "ABAP Program" which has a red/green status but no red or green arrows, but black coming out of the variant forcing it to move down the chain on a sucess or failure. The process chain variants also hung in the yellow status using the "ABAP Program" variant.
I have tried starting the process chain using both "Direct Scheduling" with "Immediate" and "After Event." I have also kicked it off using "Start Using Meta Chain or API" so it was functioning as a sub process chain. Programs were still yellow in every case without changing to red or green.
I created new process chain variants for every single program/variant that I am using. Still no luck.
I have tried removing the chain from the schedule and re-activating and re-running and still no luck.
Thanks in advance,
Gary Martins
