Raising Alerts from BI

Hi All,
I want to raise two alerts from BI7, will you please let me know the step by step process of how to do this.
Thanks in Advance,
Radhika

You can check if Pc has alert or not from
Rspc> Processchain>attributes--? alert
If alert check box is on ,your pc has alert
Make sure you have sufficient authorization to do it.
Anyway will give you step by step procdure for it
You can send messages to an application process of the chain, depending on the success or failure of the process.
1. To do this, using the context menu for a process, create another process variant of type Send Message.
2. If you maintain a message, first specify whether you want the message to be sent when the process has been completed successfully or unsuccessfully. Then choose Next.
3. A dialog box appears, in which you can select an existing process variant or create a new one.
4. If you create a new process variant, edit the document that is going to be sent and maintain a list of recipients.
5. Save your process variant and go back.
The message process variant is now assigned to your application process. When the message is sent, the status information and the process log are also sent.
Note, you must configure SAPconnect in order to ensure that your system can send email - use transaction SCOT if this has not been configured.
It's set as a property for an individual process in the chain. You would have to set on each process where you want notification.
One technique you might consider, is that tou can create a "meta-chain" made up of local chains, and you can set a message on each of the "local chain" processes in the meta-chain

How to Raise Alerts from the fields of Mapping?

HI,
We had a very typical requirement for our client.
Scenarios is IDOC to multiple files else consider a simple file to file scenario.
Source structure contains some 5 fields and the target also remains the same 5 fields.
Assume SERNO presents in both structures.
The issue here is i need to check for a Target SERNO field should accept only numerical value, there is a possibilty of coming alphanumeric and sometimes with specialcharacter appended numeric. i have developed a udf which allows only numeric.
The mapping is getting failed if alphanumeric or special character exists in that field.
But, the client requires an alert mentioning that this mapping is failed due to the problem in Source SERNO field so that he can easily debug and resubmit those idocs.
I want to know is it possible to raise alerts at field levels.
Thanks,
--Kishore

Hi Raja,
This is a new development and we dont hve any Alert framework right now exist, i believe even the alert category its not possibel to drill down to the field level.
if its possible could you please elaborate.
We have many fileds to check as similarly defined above example SERNO, so if the alerts are triggered @ filed level that are failed that will be a great..
My Ultimate requirement is to notify client that due to this field the mapping was occured and alert should throw some light on to locate the error at the field level.
Please suggest how to procced..
Thanks,
--Kishore

Raise alert from Unix script

Hi,
I have a scenario where my post processing Unix script would append 5 individual files to create a master output file. If everything works fine, well and good. In case of any error - XI has to raise an alert to the support team. Could you please let me know how this can be done. I assume that the Unix script should be coded such a way so that it raises an alert if something fails in its processing logic. Could you please let me know how to do this? Any sample Unix script would also be highly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,
Santhosh

Hi Prateek,
Many thanks for yor response. I was also thinking on this approach - but i didn't want to add on another file based interface to the existing set of all file based (all this problem is coz of this file based integration) interfaces. This would be my last option.
is there any other way to directly trigger an alert thru unix command prompt?
Btw :- Many thanks for your reference to the blog.

Santhosh M.

HI,
It is possible to write a ABAP program to raise alert.and schedule it , In ABAP program we can check the file is existed or not in a specified folder if existes then we can raise Alert.Actually Alerts are maintained by SAP Alert Management only.
So , but not clear , you said you are using the File receiver adapter .
-- onoption is -this can bepossible with OS command .
-- also we can raise alert from Payload itself , why becz i understand whenever you are going to write a file with file adapter then you need to raise an alert right?
so if message is existed i mean data existed then from raise alert and store the file onoption
-- Also you can try calling an ABAP program as the auto-reaction method of the MTE in CCMS

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

How to generate alert from Mapping

Hello,
I know how to generate alrets by configuring ALRTCATDEF, Alert Configuration.
I want to know how we can generate alert from mapping for ex..
If a=b then send the message
and if a!=b then failed the message and throw and alert.
In java or XSLT mapping
Thnaks and Regards

Hi Hemanth,
Bhavesh Blog explied to raise alert using UDF,if you want using JAVA or XSLT converth the same code in to JAVA Map,I think it will work.

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

How to trigger alerts from UDF for file to file scenario

Hi,
My scenario is something like this.......
I have lookup in which there exists more than one output value corresponding to this one input value.In such cases i need to raise an exception and trigger an alert from UDF so as to inform the functional team.
Now this entire procedure has to be implemeted for file to file scenario.
I am not using any RFC nor do i need a BPM.
Entire scenario should be excuted without BPM and RFC.
Can anyone kindly suggest me as to how to proceed for this so as to trigger alerts
from UDF.
Thanks in advance

Alert from Message Mapping Response

Hi All,
I am working on a scenario wherein I am using BAPI Request & Response Messages in my mapping. I am receiving a no. from Bapi Response if the request i successful. If the number returned from BAPI is null or '', then an alert has to be thrown and send an email to support, otherwise normal processing of message.
My question is how can I raise an alert from BAPI return Variable Value without using BPM or JAVA UDF.

Empty File handling and raise alert.

Hi,
We have requirement where we are doing file pass through. But client wants PI to raise alert when it receives 0 byte file.
How can we achieve this using File/FTP/SFTP adapter when we are not reading the actual payload and doing only pass thru?
Thanks,
Vertika

Hi Vertika,
AFAIK - there is no standard way for pass through interface to raise alert (for empty file). so you need to develop adapter module to raise the alert for empty file.
Please refer the help page
Configuring the Sender File Adapter - Advanced Adapter Engine - SAP Library
Under Handling of Empty Files, specify how empty files (length 0 bytes) are to be handled:
Do Not Create Message No XI messages are created from empty files.The files are processed according to the selected processing mode.For example, if the processing mode is Delete, empty files are deleted in the source directory.
Process Empty Files XI messages are created with an empty main payload.The files are processed according to the selected processing mode.
Skip Empty Files No XI messages are created from empty files.Empty files are skipped and remain in the source directory.

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

Sender File adpter --don't raise alerts when file does not exist in folder

Hi,
My Scenario is File --- >XI ---> SAP.
I must archieve the file after it got polled. and iam polling for every 60 mins, if the file does not exist,it is throwing an alert like "Could not process file '.file..xml: No such file or directory '
Is there any way i can avoid raising an alert if file does not exist in the source folder.
we are on XI 3.0 sp23?
Thanks
Srini

Hello,
Your Subject:
>Sender File adpter --don't raise alerts when file does not exist in folder
is contradictory to your question.
>if the file does not exist,it is throwing an alert like "Could not process file '.file..xml: No such file or directory '
> Is there any way i can avoid raising an alert if file does not exist in the source folder.
I know you want to say "Don't Raise alerts when file does not exist in folder". Correct me if I am wrong.
Some times it happens, when we write the right thing but it means something else and this is the reason many experts have replied, "how to raise an alert". So if you remove the word "Sender File adapter" from your subject then it will be easy to understand the exact meaning.

Sarvesh

No alerts from AAE after configured Solman as central Alert Server

Hi all,
i have configured a Solution Manager system to act as a central alert servcer for our PI landscape. We are using PI 7.1 ehp 1.
I changed the required nodes in the exchange profile and created the PIRWBUSER in the solution manager system. After restarting the J2EE engine of the PI system the alert rules are no created on solutiuon manager and alerts which occur in the integration engine are raised in the solution manager system. However alerts which are raised in the AAE are not forwarded.
When i check the application log in NWA I see the follwing error, whenever an alert should have been raised:
No central monitor defined in RWB.
Thrown:
com.sap.aii.rwb.exceptions.JaycoRequestFailedException: Neither messager server nor application server are defined for system SMB
at com.sap.aii.rwb.core.R3System.getITSUrl(R3System.java:1090)
at com.sap.aii.rwb.core.R3System.getITSUrl(R3System.java:1558)
In ABAP the connection CentralMonitoringServer-XIAlerts is configured correctly as alerts from the IE engine are working. I suppose I missed some configuration in the java stack. Can somebody help me on that?
Best regards and thx

Alerts from BPM Email Subject and From address should be changed.

Hi All,
I'm raising an alert from BPM by using Container operation and Control steps.
The below details are appearing in the Email. Is there any way to change these standard steps... ?
From:     WF-BATCH at K.local
To:         SAPSupport at k.com
Subject: Process 000000021589
Alert ID:   ##00010##
I want to change the
- Subject name with my own subject line.
- From address should be changed to it.helpdesk at k.com instead of WF-BATCH at k.com
- I checked in some of the threads, looks like there is limitation in terms of characters in the Email body(127 characters)? Is there anything I can do to extend the email body?
Kindly suggest me.
Thanks
Deepthi

Hi Baskar,
// You can pretty much change the subject title and recipient information easily. Click on fixed recipients to modify mail address.
Recipients list is fine. I can change. How about the Sender Email address?
Ex: WF-BATCH.. Since the errors are generated from BPM, the sender userid will be always WF-BATCH.
I want to change this user id into my custom user id.. is it possible?
2. Also I enabled Dynamic Text in alert category which is used to get the dynamic text from mapping.. Hence i cannot use Short and Long texts tab in Alert Category to generate the subject line.
Hence Subject line is coming with process ID, looks like I cannot change?
Thanks

Alerts from Proxy Runtime

Hi,
I am in the position at the moment where I am able via the ALT framework to sent alerts generated from error message in sxmb_moni on the SAP PI system. This I achived using ALT Framework alert categories and Alert Rules Configuration in the RWB.
However in A2A scenarios where messages are exchanged between SAP ECC systems SAP PI I would like to enquire about how the proxy runtime errors that occure on the SAP ECC side (Sending and Receiving) is captured and sent as alerts.
So in essence if a message goes into an error state on the SAP ECC proxy side in sxmb_moni then I would like to receive an alert via mail to this end.
Your assistance in this regard with be highly valued.
Regards
Willie Hugo

Willem,
However in A2A scenarios where messages are exchanged between SAP ECC systems SAP PI I would like to enquire about how the proxy runtime errors that occure on the SAP ECC side (Sending and Receiving) is captured and sent as alerts.
Nothing that PI can do in this situation. PI can raise alerts on IE and AE errors. The ECC system needs to raise alert for errors happening at their end.
So in essence if a message goes into an error state on the SAP ECC proxy side in sxmb_moni then I would like to receive an alert via mail to this end.
What do you mean by "receiving an alert via email to this end"? You want the alert email to be sent to PI or to an individual? Either case, it can be achieved. Please elaborate your requirement.

Neetesh
