Raise Alerts for BPM errors

Hi Experts,
I have a BPM, from which need to raise Alerts for Mapping error.
is it possible to raise alerts using Alert rule and with out throwing alerts from BPM.
Thank you,
<b>MK</b>

Hi MK
The SAP Computing Center Management System (CCMS) provides a special alert monitor for SAP Exchange Infrastructure.
You use this alert monitor to monitor the ABAP and Java components (including the Business Process Engine) of your Exchange Infrastructure centrally, and to identify different categories of system errors and application errors in the various interfaces and interface namespaces of the components involved.
You use the alert configuration to have the system inform you of errors during message processing. You can receive the alert by e-mail, fax, or SMS. In each case you will also find the alert in your alert inbox.
To configure your alerts, proceed as follows:
●     Create the alert categories that you want to use in your alert rules.
●     Create the alert rules in which you want to use your alert categories.
●     You can configure a connection to CCMS and schedule the periodic transfer of alerts to CCMS.
Once you have configured the connection to CCMS, choose Show CCMS Connection, select a period, and start the periodic transfer.
A background job is scheduled that collects all unprocessed alerts and forwards the data to CCMS. You can also stop this job.
As soon as a particular threshold value is reached, or is exceeded alerts are triggered and The transferred data is displayed in a special CCMS monitor.
You can raise alerts through BPM also .you can design your BPM in such a way that if an exception occurs, the exception handler for it has a control step in which youu can throw alert specifying the alert category and the text.
For more information on alert configuration and CCMS you can refer to http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/90/4e313f8815d036e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

How to raise alert in BPM

Hi Experts,
Please tell me how to raise alert using control step in BPM. What are the other steps to be used with control step for raising alerts?
Is CCMS Alerts and Alerts by BPM are same? If they are not the same, how they are different to each other?
my requirement is, simply i want to raise a mapping, data related errors by Alert.
in addition to it, i want to raise alerts for any failure in IE.
Could any one tell , what are the sequence of steps needed in BPM for the above requirement? Plz take a IDOC to FTP receiver scenario and explain me BPM steps.
thnx
RAMS

Is there any way to raise alerts for stock outages in inventory

Is there any way to raise alerts for stock outages in inventory

You can use the Check Material Shortages attribute in the Org items under Inventory tab. Oracle will trigger shortage alert notifucations for the checked items. This works in the conjuntion with the Shortage Parameters defined at the Inv ORg level (these parameters are nothing but what business wants to consider as a shortage in WIP and OM). You can notify the cmp planner/buyer , assy planner/job creator..

Multiple Alerts for Single error in interface is a design not issue with XI

Hi,
This is constraint of alert mechanism in XI.
You get multiple alerts for single error,the reason is that since XI will try multiple times to process a failed message so each time it fails in its tries it will send an e-mail.to stop this the "Suppress multiple alert" box is checked but what it does is that it stops all the alerts of that specific rule until the first one is confirmed.Personally i myself (and other experts too) suggest to leave the box unchecked coz its better to get tons of mails for a specific error rather than not getting any e-mail and thereby wasting time in tracking/solving the issue resulting in revenue loss to client.
As per above comments is it possible to write an ABAP code so that we can stop multiple alerts to be sending to inbox. I am sure if we can delete message from some table then we can stop sending multiple messages to alert inbox and to the subsequent mail id also. I am not sure how alert being generated. I know where they get logged in this table sxmsalertlogger. If someone know how it works in background please let me know the table names.
Regards
Ria

Hi Gaurav,
You can personalize the way in which you receive alerts.
Simply choose Personalization to make individual settings for your alert inbox. You can determine a substitute who will then receive the alerts. In addition, you can choose whether alerts are sent to you time-independently or time-dependently. The default setting is that alerts are sent time-independently to your alert inbox and via e-mail when they occur. You can additionally select the communication methods FAX and SMS for time-independent alert notification.
If you want to receive alerts only on certain days for a certain time, simply select the option for time-dependent sending of alerts and choose Create to create a new table entry. You can then choose the corresponding factory calendar, the time interval, and communication channel. Alerts that arise during this time frame will be sent in any case to your alert inbox. If you have also selected other communication channels, the alerts are additionally sent to you using these other channels.
This above text is from SAP help, do you think by changing anything in personnalisation i can stop multiple alerts. I have some issue with Personalisation link so was wondering would be worth to get tht personalisation issue resolved.

Ria

Alert for AS2 Error on send

Hi,
We would like to setup some alerts for SAP outbound messages via AS2. When the Message is not able to be delivered to the customer we do get an "error on send" message in Seeburger Message Monitor. and the channel fails in the comm channel monitoring. But it is difficult to monitor the channels as there are lot of customers so it would be better if we have alerts. I have already tried selecting the option "Refer MDN to XI system" in the Handle received MDN. The problem with this is it fails for the wrong reason saying receiver channel is not configured and it doesnt serve the purpose of showing the actual problem. Please let us know if there is any other way of setting the alerts may be in the SEEBURGER workbench itself. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi,
The alerts can only monitor the IE and AE in PI. You would not be able to create alerts in PI for the Seeburger workbench.
Maybe you can try and put as mush info as possible in the alert messages so that the recipient can get an idea about the issue at hand.
Also check if Seeburger workbench has any similar mechanism for generating auto messages on failure.

How Can I get Alert for specific error occurs in ULS logs ?

I am looking for either OOB functionality or Tool which could send me the email notification/Alert when specific error occurs in ULS Logs ? Please advice!

I dont think you can get this from OOB features...But you can use the 3rd party tool, we are using the SCOM for monitoring for our SharePoint, we get the alerts for error which we configured.

How to raise Alerts for Sender File Channel

Hi All,
For Sender File Channels , we can find out the status of the adapter through RWB as to whether it is Content Conversion related exception or Folder path not found exception & etc .
I wanted to know as to whether there is any way where can rasie alerts for Sender File Channels (similar to what we do for Reciever File Channels) as well.
Regards
Vinay P.

I found it myself .
In Alert Configuration while we are adding alerts for a particular aler category , the following parameters needs to be checked .

LMS4.1: Threshold Alert for CRC errors

Hi,
On LMS 4.1, I am trying to get threshold error when an interface has > 0 CRC errors.
We have :
- load mib old-cisco-interface.my
- create the report with locIfInCRC variable
- create the poller all instance and threshold
And we saw that the locIfInCRC variable was integer rather counter !!!
I tried to modify mib and reload it, recreate report and poller but the report is always with integer variable.
How can I unload this mib ?
Is there an other solution to get thrshold for CRC error ?
Many thanks,
Elisabeth

Hi,
Create a ZIP or RAR archive of about 500MB, move it from HD to another HD or CDrom, then move it back and extract the archive...
When you have CRC errors the Archive gives problems.
But it can also be created by wrong BIOS settings, little powersupply, bad ram etc....

Alert for BPM Transformation Step

Hi I am trying to think of a way to get the information from my alert transformation step into my Alert Message.
The scenario is a multiline container called XML_Collect mapping to XML_Output a single container with the XML messages merged.
If I encounter an error with mapping, currently I am raising an Alert with Process <Process ID> and Long Text Transformation Failure.
I have the Transform step in a Block and an exception branch for the Alert. I am going to instigate a Container Operation step to fill my Container variables with information about the error.
In the BPM Workflow Log I can see the Transformation1 Container Instance with variables such a MAPPING and MESSAGES_IN and _EXCEPTIONS in it.
Can I reference this container in my Container Operation.
Ideally I would like to know which XML message from the multiline container generated the mapping error. This would help in correcting.
I have read some information on a UDF calling Alerts but I am not sure if this is the method to use.
thanks,

It is MESSAGES_IN
We have
MAPPING MAPPING http://<company>.com/msghdr IM_T_MSGHDR_V3_to_T_MSGHDR_V3_Multi-<...>-1-
TRACE <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<MappingTrace><Trace level="1" type="T">Mapping-Namespace:http://company.com/msghdr </Trace>

This trace is what appears in the XML trace also

I have just tried the variable &_WORKITEM.WORKITEMID& and this gives the work item ID of the starting step for the Process.
My MESSAGE_ID variable that I am updating with the container variable straight after the Transformation step has the first message id from the multiline container but I know this isn't my incorrect message.

Raising alert in BPM

Hi Folks
I have a scenario in which i have to merge three files in BPm and generate an Idoc
MY BPM has >>>>3 recieve steps in a fork
                                  1 transformation step
                                  1 send Step
Now i have to implement such that BPM should wait for all the three files for a specific interval of time and if the time interval is complete then it has to raise an alert
any clues how do i achieve this ???
thnx ]
Ninad

Hi ,
add control step in befor sedning message to send step,then rise alert using sandard procedure.
Your BPM looks like this
3 Receive steops in fork and merger the message and Transformation step now add control step after that sen step.

Raj

To configure alert for BPM scenario.

Hi Experts
I have one BPM scenario(Asyn-Syn-Asy).
I have created one alert category for this and defined 3 alert rules:
first rule from SAP to BPM
second from BPM to 3rd party which is synchronous
and third from BPM to SAP.
But when i create faulty message by mapping error, alert is not triggered.
Can anyone tell me where I m going wrong??
And what additional configuration is required to trigger alert??
Thanks
Edited by: danishahmed on Jan 18, 2012 2:06 PM

Hi Danish,
Control Step is required to capture exceptions. If there is any error in main branch then Integration Process looks for alternate branch to execute which in this case should be Control step.
This control step will throw alert which should already be defined in Alert Category of IR.
Steps -
1. Drag a BLOCK from tools pellete and assign to your main flow. Now this block will be having 2 branches.
One branch will contain main flow and other will contain control step.
2. Right Click on Block and Insert -> Exception Branch
3. Drag and Drop CONTROL inside exception branch
Now you can configure Alert as in above mentioned my EL Netweaver blog post.

Incoming messages - E-Mail Alerts for Application Errors?

Dear C4C Community,
We are integrating C4C and our SAP ERP. Sometimes the business partner replication is not working due to unmapped entries or due to other reasons. Currently we are checking the web service message monitor manually for incoming message with status "Application Error".
Is there any way to setup an automatic e-mail alert when new incoming message errors appear? I do not like the manual monitoring process.
Looking forward to your feedback.
Best Regards
Matthias

Hello Matthias,

Hope this should help you achieve what you want.

CCMS - Alert for Email-Errors in the SOST

Hello everybody,
is there a way to set an Alert in the CCMS for checking Email sent with errors from the transaction SOST?
We´ve also connected an externe Fax Programm: this service is build over a RFC and functions successfully. We´d like to check all faxes with errors in the CCMS Monitoring, too.
In our SCOT the Node for the SAPConnect was already activated:
- Utilities - Alert Monitoring - Start Data Collection Method:
Data collection method for SAPconnect ran with no errors.
Now i can see it:
- Utilities - Alert Monitoring - Display - SAPConnect.
Into my custom Monitor i´ve put a MTE SAPconnect node, with name:
- ACTIVE
RFC system error: Function SMON_COMP_STATE_RETRIEVE is not available
What does this error mean? How can i easy configure the monitoring of the SOST?
Do i have to create a custom or is there any method which i can use as analyse method for the checks of the sapconnect?
PS: the same error appears also if as test i send one fax to a false address: this isn´t the error that i expected to receive.
Please on reply.
Thanks as alwalys.
Alberto

Hi Gagan,
thanks for the reply, i had already seen this link in internet but i´d like to know if there´s a way which use only the standard methods in the CCMS, without changes in any programs.
Not implemented Steps: B, E (autoreaction method not needed for this alert at the moment), F.
I have also created a analyse method with name SOST and assigned to the node.
But after starting the Data collection method for SAPconnect i see in CCMS the alert error:
RFC system error: Function SMON_COMP_STATE_RETRIEVE is not available
I didn´t send any fax or email yet, i´m still by the the configuration...
Where does this error come from?
Thanks.
Alberto

Can we set an Alert for JDBC Connection Failures ?

Hi friends ,
                  Can we set an alert for JDBC Connection failure as mail as well as Alert ?
                  I am using JDBC Sender adapter to read the data from sql server table.
                  I am not using BPM .
                  I want to set an alert and mail to respective person when JDBC Connection failure .
                  If XI trying to read a database if connection failure or connection properties lost it won't come ti Integration engine itself right ?
                 I assume as we have to set alert at system level .
                Can you please give me the step by step details to set this kind of alerts ?
                  Expecting your reply asap .
Best Regards.,
V.Rangarajan

Renga rajan,
This is what I tried to explain in yuor previous threads.
>>>If XI trying to read a database if connection failure or connection properties lost it won't come ti Integration engine itself right ?
In such cases, you will get <b>an error at adapter level</b> and the msg wont come into IE.
>>>I assume as we have to set alert at system level .
If you are above SP 14 in XI3.0, then you can raise alerts for adapter errors also.
No special config required for this.
To understand this, give it a try and you will get the concept.

Jai Shankar

BPM: How to Raise Alert and Restart together ?

The requirement is like this.My Integration Process receives a message, performs a 1:N split and undergoes further processing using Transformation steps. I want to ensure the following in case any one of the Transfofrmation fails(Because of some coding error in the step):
1. Raise an Alert
2. Should be able to restart the Process again from the
   failed step once the Transformation code is fixed.
3. To raise an Alert for any file adapter level errors,
   and to restart the processing of the message once the
   file adpter error is resolved
I have tried the following approaches, but it does not help me achieve all of the above condition.
I have put the Transformation step in a Block and introduced an exception branch with one control step which raises an Alert.
Issue: This will raise an alert when the step fails, but it ends the BPM with a Processed status and hence I will not be able to restart the BPM.
So I put another Control step immediately following the Alert step which raises an exception. However I have not handled this exception. Hence when a step fails, I am able to raise an alert as well as the BPM gets errored out.
Issue : However, now when I restart the process in swf_xi_swpr, The process restarts with the Control step which was used to throw exception. It does not restart with the Failed mapping step.
To raise Alerts for Adpter level errors which might occur before the message comes to BPM, I have defined alert category and rule in runtime workbench. However, the Alerts are not triggered when the file adapter fails.
Please share any ideas on how to achieve all the 3
requirements together.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Joachim!
I was facing a very similar problem in my BPM modelling.
Is there really no other chance than to loop (and maybe wait some time) over the critical (e.g. networking down, ...) parts of the BPM to have some active notification via alerts AND a possibility for retry?
In my opinion this would a very inflexible way of doing error-handling stuff - if so - is it about to change in the upcoming releases?
Currently I guess I can have:
a) either ALERTING (by catching exception and raise alert)
OR
b) convenient retry mechansisms via "SWF_XI_SWPR" (by not catching exceptions at all and let the relevant block become "errorenous") ...
Any other suggestions ...?
Many Thanks,
Andy
