Rename ABAP-Job in process chain

Hello experts,
how can I change the job-name (SM37) of a ABAP-Program that starts within a process chain?
Now all ABAPs that are started within a process chain are called: "BI_PROCESS_ABAP"
Thank in advance

Not sure where you want to go with this idea.  If you are trying to create a new naming scheme in general, e.g. ZBI_PROCESS_ABAP, or if you want to change indiviusla job names so you can more readily identify what a particular BI_PROCESS_ABAP job does.
If it's the latter, I thin kyou will end up creating a maintenance headache, because when you modify and reschedule a chain it wouldn't delte teh old job and it would create a new one with the standard BI_PROCESS_XXXXX  job name.
Have you looked at Tran RSM37 ?  It provides process chain name info when you pull up a list of jobs, not a perfect eample, but this should give an idea of, e.g.
Background Job Name     Status     Selection     Selection value     Selection     Selection value     Selection     Selection value
BI_PROCESS_ABAP     Released     CHAIN     0TCT_C2_INIT_P01     TYPE     ABAP     VARIANT     0TCT_START_DATALOAD_PC
BI_PROCESS_ABAP     Released     CHAIN     0TCT_C0_INIT_P01     TYPE     ABAP     VARIANT     0TCT_START_QUERYRUNTIME_PC
BI_PROCESS_ABAP     Released     CHAIN     ZMD_D_METACHAIN     TYPE     ABAP     VARIANT     ZBW_START_PM_DAILY_PC
BI_PROCESS_ABAP     Released     CHAIN     ZSR_D_MD_META     TYPE     ABAP     VARIANT     ZSR_D_MD_COMP
BI_PROCESS_ABAP     Released     CHAIN     ZMD_D_METACHAIN     TYPE     ABAP     VARIANT     ZBW_START_FI_DAILY_PC
BI_PROCESS_ABAP     Released     CHAIN     ZMD_D_METACHAIN     TYPE     ABAP     VARIANT     ZBW_START_FM_DAILY_PC
BI_PROCESS_ABAP     Released     CHAIN     ZMD_D_METACHAIN     TYPE     ABAP     VARIANT     ZBW_START_GS_DAILY_PC
BI_PROCESS_ABAP     Released     CHAIN     ZMD_D_METACHAIN     TYPE     ABAP     VARIANT     ZBW_START_SRM_DAILY_PC
BI_PROCESS_ABAP     Released     CHAIN     ZMM_D_META_1     TYPE     ABAP     VARIANT     ZBWPR_V3_BEGIN_03
BI_PROCESS_ABAP     Released     CHAIN     ZMM_D_META_1     TYPE     ABAP     VARIANT     ZBWPR_V3_BEGIN_02

  • Hot to add a Background Job to process Chain

    Hi Guys,
    I have created a background job via Sm36, but I wanted to include all this jobs to Process Chain, is it possible?
    thanks.

    Hi,
    Welcome to SDN.
    Please try this ( a quick and dirty solution)
    1.Create a batch event in SM62 (e.g. Z_EVENT1D)
    2.Allocate this event as start event of batch job in SE36
    3.Create a report to trigger this event
    REPORT  Z_RAISE_EVENT.
    Call Function 'BP_EVENT_RAISE'
             EXPORTING
             EVENTID = 'Z_EVENT1D'
    4.Add a process type abap program calling this report to PC
    Of course, you can add a parameter to report and save different variants to make it more flexible, if required.
    Regards

  • Triggering Process chain based on execution of R3 job and Process Chain

    Hi All,
    I need your help in arriving at a solution for a reqirement.
    Scenario is., I need to trigger a process chain B based on successful execution of Process chain A and an R3 job. If both conditions(Completion of R3 job and Process Chain A) are met then only it has to trigger process Chain B.
    I know that we can use events to trigger a process chain using R3 job.But my case is differenet I need to consider the success message from both process chain and R3 job.Is there any way to solve it ?
    Please provide me with your valuable inputs.
    Thanks,
    Bindu

    Hi Hima,
    You can use the  'AND' variant for both, If both are success then trigger the process chain.

  • GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED error while running abap prog in process chain

    Hi.
    I am getting a runtime error GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED while running an ABAP program in process chain.
    But when i execute pro in SE38 , it's not giving any error.
    Please any one can suggets what will be error.

    Hi,
      i also used to get error for a program executed through process chain but when it is executed in se38 it used to work... that is because my program try to access a application server folder and reads the file from there... the authorisation to this is not proper through process chain ..... once authorisation to the folder was given properly .. i am able to run...
      Such things can happen in your case also... Try to analyse the dump in st22.... what happened ...

    Hello,
    Go into transaction code RSPC and then select the particular process chain by going into the edit mode and in the menu...
    Look for Execution --> Remove from Schedule.
    Let me know if that answered your question.

  • How to find triggering job for Process chain

    Hi,
    I have a process chain and its triggering by some other system using an event.
    I want to know how to find which ystem is triggering this job means process chain and on what basis it is starting?
    I have an event for this process chain and also FM : BP_EVENT_RAISE. So how to find the with those details?
    Thanks,
    Phani

    HI,
    some other system means either dev, qas, prd?
    for every process in a process chain there is a chain id which is same as the name of your chain,
    for every chain id there exist some log ids , this both information you can find from the standard table RSPCLOGCHAIN
    From this log id you can find the status of the process from  table RSPCPROCESSLOG.
    here u will find the status of your process whether is has been completed successfully or ended with errors.
    Thanks,
    Phani.

  • ABAP Program in process chain

    Hi All,
    We have ABAP Porgram(PROCESS TYPE)  in our porcess chain.
    It was failed today with following message in Job log
    " Table Locked.Data currently being processed by user ALEREMOTE " .But when i check in SM12 there was no locks I found there. and i have checked in sm21 also there also i didn't find anylogs at that time and date.
    So i tried by repeating the load of "ABAP Process "  the program went successful now.
    But client is asking which PROCESS CHAIN caused locks for this program.
    Is there any way to find out any other process chain is using the same " PROCESS TYPE (ABAP Program)"  in their process chain?.
    so that i can identify that process chain and inform to the client.

    First :
    The lock need not be due to another ABAP program...
    What you are seeing here is a table lock due to a conflicting process... for instance - lets say your program is reading 0MATERIAL and updating specific values in the P Table of 0MATERIAL. At the same time - if there is a data load happening to thi table - then your program or the data load whichever runs later - will face the locking issue.
    What you need to do is :
    1. Find out which tables are being UPDATED by the ABAp program - find out when these tables are being updated by other process chains - and then change the schedule for the same.

  • Parallel processing for ABAP prorams in Process chain.

    Hi All,
    In one of the process chain, we have added the ABAP program. In Backend,the job is running as "BI_PROCESS_ABAP".
    I just want to know, same like DTP, can we keep parallel processing for the ABAP programs also. Please suggest.
    Thanks.

    Hello Jalina
    Also check with BASIS if the memory allocated to run this program has not overflowed and the selections you have in your ABAP program is in small chunks and use variants to run them in parallel OR series

  • Call an ABAP program from process chain

    Hi experts,
    How do I include an abap program in R/3 sandbox in my process chain in BW.
    I know how to do it in BW but this program is in the ECC sandbox.
    what I did was to create a job in R3 through SM36,this job had two steps one to run my program and another step to call the FM RSPC_ABAP_FINISH,which would inform the PC that the job is executed and continue to the next step.
    I was triggering this job trough an event in R3.
    In my PC I added a process type ABAP program,where i made an asynchronous call to the event in the ecc sandbox.
    But this is not working.Any ideas?

  • Standard ABAP program for process chains

    Hi gurus,
      Is there any standard ABAP program to trigger process chains?
    I do not have authorization for RSPC_API_CHAIN_START. So is there any alternative function module or any standard ABAP program that I could use?
    Please help.

    Hi Apara,
      Did you try scheduling the chain via rspc1? If not then follow the steps as given below and see if it is successful
    1) Goto RSPC1.
    2) Enter your chain technical name.
    3) Go to display variant by right clicking the chain. Select the immediate option. save the settings.
    4) Come back to the process chain screen. Click on execute button. See if this succeeds.
    or in case if the chain has been already scheduled once:
    Just open the PC in RCPC1/RCPC
    right click on the start variant (i.e the first process in the PC)
    and select display scheduled jobs...
    this will show you the released jobs for this pC
    just selsct the check box in front of the released job and the select the menu option Job - > selct Repeat scheduling.
    selct immediate and remove the periodic tick mark and save which will run your process chain immediately.
    But i doubt if you will be able to schedule the process chain via a function module or a ABAP code without prior authorization. Maybe you can request some one from your team to run the chain for you until you get access.
    You will surely need to get access for running the chain without which it should not be possible to run the chain.
    Thanks

  • Canceled Status in Job Detail, Process Chain triggering w/event

    Hi All,
    I have created event, PC and trigger event with SM64 or with ABAP, everything is ok
    if I activate and Schedule PC, I see BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER job with released status, and when I trigger the event nothing  is happened but when I checked the Job detail I see canceled status job.
    I donu2019t understand why this problem occurs ?
    I can trigger the event but before event trigger the PC, scheduled job detail directly turn to the chancel status.
    if any one give me a clue to solve this problem I will appreciate
    Note : No Job log !!!

  • Adding BAPI jobs in Process Chain

    Hi All,
    I want to add BAPIs in process chain in BW 3.5.Can anybody help me in this???????

    Hi,
    There will be no impact on the work processes but the main concern here is for all jobs that run in dialog/fore ground there will be some specific time limit defined...so if a job/process crosses that limit it'll go to ABAP dump....
    At a max there'll be no timelimit for the bkgd processes so a job can run for a long time without any interruption...
    To know the time limit for foreground processes u can chk wit ur BASIS team or use Tcode- RZ11...
    Now If any of the job in ur process chain takes long time it may go thru dump, so it depends on the step howmuch it is taking....(Eg: Attribute change runs take long time sometimes)

    Here i have to use process chain 2 as a parameter.
    Kindly provide me solution .

    Hi Saurabh,
    You need to create ABAP program in which you check the values for required process chain in
    following table
    RSPCLOGCHAIN (Feilds ANALYZED_STATUS LOG_ID)
    Depend on values you can trigger next process or you can wait unitil this process chain complete.you need to check status from table using ABAP.
    If you are not aware about how to write ABAP program then take help from ABAP Team.
