Reg : To view process chain flow for a cube
HI Experts,
I need to view process chain flow for a particular cube of sales distribution.Can you please tell me stps to perform .
Hi,
If the cube is already loaded then you can just to the infopackages which are loading it and in the infopackages you have option in the "schedule" tab to see which process chain it is loading.
if not then you will have to identify which data source is loading to the cube and check for the infopackge.
and I think the DTP will be in the same chain as well.
For DTP it is alreday mentioned by the others.
Thanks
Ajeet

Process Chain Assining for another source sytem
Hi Experts,
I have a quick question on process chain assining for another source sytem.
For Example. I have a Process chain with 10 Infiopackages. Letz say that Infopackage was assinged to one source system.
Now I wanna a create a new process chain which shoud be the replica of the existing process chain. I wanna to load the data for the same info packages thru another sources system. Can we do this or else we have to reassign the data source for new source system for every infosources.. Is this Possible.
Kindly guide me if there is any nother solution for this.
Warm Regards,
AluriHi..
ABAP routines are in place at infopack level or at the Transformation level?
If its there at the Transformation level then there wont be any issues for ur redesigning..
if its there at the IP level then u need to copy those things in ur new IP as per the requirement and change the things accordingly..
and then design the process chain..
Assign points if this helps..

Stopping Process Chain schedule for just one day...
Hi,
Our source systems and BI are getting a patch upgrade during this weekend and I need to stop all the Process Chains schedule for Friday night/ Saturday morning. Is there a simple way I can stop all the Process Chains from executing just for tomorrow instead of manually removing each PC from schedule and again putting them back on schedule on Saturday?
Thanks,
Sri.Hi
You can reschedule them instead of de-schedule and schedule back.
1)open your process chain in rspc1
2) goto planning mode
3) right click on start --> display schedule job
4) select the job --> in menu bar --> click on first one from left --> change
here change the dates as per your requirement and save the job.
If you have any event based chains which are going to start after time based chains gets complete, no need to de-schedule as we are not going get trigger from time based chains.
I don't think so we have any program to de-schedule all the chains at a time.

HOW TO VIEW DATA IN LOG VIEW - PROCESS CHAIN?
HAI FRIENDS,
I SIMULTANEOUSLY LOADED DATA INTO ODS AND INFOCUBE....I USED THE PROCESS CHAIN TO LOAD DATA.. BUT AFTER ACTIVATING, I COULD N'T VIEW THE DATA IN THE LOG.AFTER THAT I FOUND OUT DATA IS NOT LOADED INTO THE ODS ..SO I ACTIVATED IT AGAIN.. DID THE PROCESS CHAIN ACTIVATE.. EVEN AFTER THAT I COULD NOT VIEW DATA IN LOG VIEW AND ALSO WHEN I CLICK ON LOAD DATA PROCESS(ODS) NO DATA IS FOUND.. PLS HELP OUT
WITH REGARDS
APPUHi,
Go to the manage screen for that ODS. See teh relevent request and find how many records were transferred and how many added.
If it is zero added records, then check for any rules.

Hi,
There is a process chain of flow start>Infopackage>DTP>ActivateDSO_->InfoPackage1>DTP1>ActivateDSO1_
Only doubt starts where it is underlined. why the infopackage1 has been linked after the Activate DSO eventhough no dependency for DSO1?
Instead the infopackage1 can be linked after start variant of the same process chain, right?

Process chain flow - based on table values
Hi,
I want to control the flow of Process chain run through the values that exist in a field ZCONTROL of Z table.
I have created an ABAP Program where I access the Ztable to get the ZCONTROL values and have added the program in the ABAP process type.
Below the ABAP process type, I have added the Process type "Decision between Multiple Alternatives" and created a formula using Predecessor_Parameter function to get the ZCONTROL values.
The format is PREDECESSOR_PARAMETER( <I_FIELDNAME>, <I_LOW_OR_HIGH>, <I_NUM
How should I get the I_FIELDNAME value here?
Please help.
Thanks.Hi Eric / Steph,
Thanks for your reponses.
Eric,
My table has the infopackages name and ZCONTROL field, which contains an indicator "X" or SPACE based the scheduling requirements. If "X", the Infopackage is scheduled else, it is not.
In the formula, how will I import the infopackage name. The custom function can be created with export parameters as ZCONTROL values.
But when I use the custom funtion, I will need to use the fields on the left hand side and it should have the infopackage name ideally.
If you get any idea, please let me know.
Steph,
I will try your suggestion.
Can one ABAP program added as an ABAP Process type in the Process chain, trigger multiple events for different process chains?
Also, if the infopackages are scheduled, one below the other, if one is not scheduled, will it move to the next one? Will it go as an error(red) or green? Should 2 load infopackages process types connected as success or Always?
Please clarify.
Thanks.

Process chain variant for Acivaton of DSO error!!!
I have a data flow which has three data sources A B C ...A and B are connected to DSO X and C is connected to DSO Y,
DSO X and Y are again connected to DSO Z....DSO Z is connected to Final Target (Info Cube M).
Now Iam created a Process chain ...After Start Variant Iam running the Delta Info Packs for B and C (A's Delta Info pack runs in some other chain).
Then using Update from PSA for A B C ...using AND for A&B PSA to load in to DSO X...paralelly I used C PSA update in to DSO Y...Then used AND to load X& Y to Z...
When I run the process chain it runs good twice...we created a job in SM37 to run this job for every 4 hours....when I come back and see ...DSO X has data loaded and activated
But DSO Y loaded the data but activation doesnt took...When I see the Process chain logs its giving the following error msgs.
- 1 -
Request REQU_D3DR8GR9CPUIA56IMER47VWW7 (0000060949) is not
available in data target. No PSA process possible.
Like this error each chain is showing error messages with the request numbers which are already activated in DSO.I donno when the req is already there as active why activation looking for that old req?
I fixed it by manually updating the DSOs and Cube...Can anybody let me know how to fix this in Process chain.
Thanks for the help in advanceI think you may have a timing issue, as when you perform this update manually there is no issue's.
I would suggest you load both ODS's then you activate the data on both, then you have the AND step once both have been activated to then feed the data to the subsequent Infoprovider.
This should resolve your issue. -
Hi,
I'm doing a flat file extraction. The data flow is from Flat file to ODS and then to cube. I need to create a process chain to automate the process.
As per my understanding, the load from a flat file to the ODS is always Full update. Am I right?
The first load we are planning to do a Full upload manually, after which we plan to automate the process using process chains.
Please provide me with inputs on the steps to create a delta from the ODS to the cube.
Thanks.
Darius.Hi,
Welcome to SDN.
You can autmate the process by having the flat file in the appl server. Flat file data source supports delta as well which is also called Pseudo delta.
If you wish to load your flat file in full update you can still load deltas to cube from ODS.
For this, run a inititliazation w/o data transfer from ODS to Cube and then create a delta IP from ODS to cube.
While creating a process chain, follow this procedure
Start> Load info package ( flat file)> Activate ODS--> Delta IP to Infocube.
hope this helps

ABAP process job ( BI_PROCESS_ABAP ) in process chain running for long time
Dear Experts,
We have an ABAP process job BI_PROCESS_ABAP in a process chain. This job is running for a very long time than previous run time.
Recently we had an ORACLE database upgrade from 9.2 to 10g.
From the very next day , we are having this problem.
And also previously this process-chain was under control of BASIS guys . they were using a tool called CRONACLE to schedule it. At the time of upgrade this tool was crashed and they asked us to schedule it in BW system instead.
Underlying program is using two custom tables.
one is having both primary & secondary indexes but the other table is having only primary index.
I am not sure whether we have secondary indexes on other table prior to upgrade or not.
Where must be the problem?...
At the time of upgrade BASIS has re-organized the table space along with database upgrade.
please help me...
Regards,
SRIKANTHPlease ask yr basis consultant to check the system parms.
Below i have listed down SAP recommneded system parms .
abap/heap_area_total 4000000000
abap/heap_area_dia 2000000000

Problem in process chain running for 3 days
Hi Experts,
Please help me
We have process chain like below
1. delete index
2. full loads going 3 cubes (16 infopacs)
3. loading to ods and then update to cube
4. delete overlapping requests (16 infopac)
5. create index
6. aggregate filling
7. delete PSA
Now the issue is, from last Saturday onwards
Process chains was still in Yellow status till date, so now, 1,2,3,4, are still running
In process chains, out if 16 infopacs, 12 are green, remaining 4 are stopped
And in ODS activation of ods data variant shows yellow, but when checked the data is activated, but not pushed to cube. When checked log it show u201Csystem exception error_messageu201D, so process terminated.
When we checked for shortdump,
It says u201Clocal time on the application server is incorrectu201D
Experts please let me know how to solve this and correct the load.Hi Experts,
Thank u for your help,
I have done the steps manually yestarday, checked todays, still it is in yellow status.
let me explain the scenario,
The data is going to 3 cubes,
the process chain is designed like this,
1. initially delete index
2. full load to cube using 16 infopac and loading from (2)ODS to cube.
3. delete overlapping requests
4. create index (3 cubes)
5. fill aggregates (only one cube)
6. Delete PSA request
so now , chain is having problem at
1. data is loaded to ods
2. data activation (showing yellow, but when checked data is activated)
3. further update to cube (2 cubes) in process chain this is not started atall ( so y'day I've done manually)
4. out 16 infocpack, only 12 infopacs are green and remaining 4 are not started.
so yestarday I've manually schedule remaining 4 infopacs.
and deleted previour requests in infocube as they are full load, but I did'nt done create index and fill aggregate steps.
now the problem is , out of 3 cube report available request is present for 2 cubes, but for 3 cube this report request is not available, but QM status is green
please let me know how to proceed.
one small silly question, do i need to fill aggregate step to get this report available request.....please suggest.
Thanks & Regards,

Process chain - schedule for certain days
Hello all,

When I am in the 18-th day, I raise an event. I test the year,the calender of the system and the month (January).
This report is called in the chain, as ABAP process.
Then, in my chain , I put a local chain , that starts after it receives the event 'ZE_PROD' and the parameter for it 'ZE_PROD'.
This event with parameter has to be created in SM62.
I hope this helps and thank you all for the advices.
PS: - the factory calender method seems not to be to good, because need special rights to create it and I don' t think it's possible to customize it (because the holiday calender has to be changed and I did not see how).

Process chain Logic for this scenario
HI,
We have a typical requirement that need to be implemented using a Process chain.
We need to Load data from R/3 to PSA,
then Load the data from the PSA into ODS1,
then execute an ABAP program,
then load the data from PSA into ODS2 (we cannot repull from R/3).
Can some one provide me an Idea on how to implement this. I am stuck with the idea on how to populate ODS2 from PSA after executing ABAP Program.
Thanks In advance,Hi Krishnamohan,
I hope i m getting ur problem right.I think u can implement the below steps easily :
Step 1 : We need to Load data from R/3 to PSA,
Step 2 : then Load the data from the PSA into ODS1,
Step 3 : then execute an ABAP program,
U have options avaialable for each of them in process chains.
Now coming to your problem.
Step 4 : then load the data from PSA into ODS2 (we cannot repull from R/3).
i guess ur Abap program makes some changes in the Data of PSA which u then want to load in the ODS2.
What u can do is create 2 infopackages and inside infopackages in the data targets tab select ODS1 in the first infopackage and uncheck ODS2 , likewise in the 2nd infopackage select ODS2 and uncheck ODS1.
U can execute the first infopackage in the process chain , then ur abap program and then
In process chain and in Process types u have something called "Read PSA Data and Updata Data Target".
select that process type , specify the 2nd infopackage name and get it executed.
Hope it helps.
Thanks and Regards,

Process Chain Server for Scheduling
Hello,
I would like to schedule my process chains such that I avoid any deadlocks from not enough background processes being available and other kinds of resource failures. I have been trying to schedule certain chains on different servers logically, but if an app server changes unexpectedly then the loads fail. It seems that hard coding chains to servers is not an ideal solution. What is the best option for server scheduling when you schedule a process chain? Is there an option that gives some sort of load balancing? Should you just leave the server field blank? What about the server group option?
Thanks,
TMSleave the server field blank.
the load balancing feature will take care of distribution of jobs automatically -
Process Chain Component for Deleting Openhub Destination
I have an openhub that places the results of a DSO on AL11.
I created / scheduled a process chain for updating the file.
I'd like to modify the process chain and add a step to delete the file on AL11 before I run the DTP.
Is this possible?
MikeHi
Can achieve this with ABAP Process -- by calling FM -- EPS_DELETE_FILE (or) Command delete dataset file.
Basis Team can also help via writing Unix script which can be executed via SM49 to delete the File.
To access the file..
*-c list in time order.
CONCATENATE 'ls -c' p_fin INTO w_list_commandin
SEPARATED BY space.
CONCATENATE w_list_commandin '/.' INTO w_list_commandin.
CALL unix list command - will populate itab_file_list ITAB
CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD w_list_commandin ID 'TAB'
FIELD it_file_list-sys.
To delete..
Remove the file once it is processed
CONCATENATE 'rm' it_file_list-file_name
INTO w_runcmd SEPARATED BY space.
send command to unix to move item file
CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD w_runcmd.
Hope it helps -
Process Chain Message for Run completion
Dear experts,
In our system the Process chains and as they complete processes, there are some messages, such as completion of run for master data or hierarchies...
Then when I run the PC, if I don't click to confirm the messages, the PC sometimes times out...
I would like to NOT display thoses messages.
How can I change the settings for that???
AliceDear Pravender,
What do you mean by block?
The start event or the attrib. change box?
if i right-click on them both I see:
"Display Variant...
Exchange variant...
Display all jobs
Create message...
Debug Loop...
Remove process"
I don't see "maintain message."
I think you mean that I should I click "create message..." and change successful to error.
If that correct?
