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
Regards
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.

Run process chain on last three days of the month

Hello
I need to run process chain on last three days of the month. For example , It should run on 28, 29 and 30th dates of June.
There is no option to put a code in the start process of the process chain.
I can run it every day and put a code in the infopackage/DTP so that empty load (0 records) will be done on other days.
This doesnt sound as a good option.
Do u know any other options?

Hi
See the code and details how to do it, and change the code as per your requirement.

Hi,
(1) Create an event in the BW system
Define a system event (for example SAP_BW_TRIGGER) with Transaction SM62. Lets says it is "EVENTX". Use this even in the Process chain and execute the process chain as repeative job.
(2) Use the below lines of code in the program for calling a Fucntion which trigeres the event created above . Here in this program you will call the the Below FM if and only id the sy-datum is 20 th or 2nd of the month ( as mentioned by our friend suggested).
call function 'BP_EVENT_RAISE'
exporting
eventid = EVENTX
exceptions
bad_eventid = 1
eventid_does_not_exist = 2
eventid_missing = 3
raise_failed = 4
others = 5.
endfunction.

Trigger Process Chain Manually

Hello Experts,
Is there any way we can let a business user trigger a process chain manually without having to log in back-end?
Ideal would be via an HTTP-link just posted on the customer's Intranet... do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Best Regards,
Rikard

Hi Arun,
Thank you for your answer. This seems to fit my need, although I'm new to BSP pages. I did however find this very useful guide:
<<http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BSP/BSP%2Citstabsandnavigation.>>
What is needed to use such pages? Any special installation other than the front-end? Could any business user with just the sapGUI installed reach the page on the intranet and trigger the load via a button (event)?
Regards,
Rikard

DBIF_DSQL2_SQL_ERROR
what the message try to tell us , how to troubleshoot it .?

Hi AF,
try to look on SAP notes 978417 - Latch Monitor and Table Access Monitor: DBIF_DSQL2_SQL_ERROR. I guess this will solve your problem. It states also here on how you fix the issue.
Let me know if this make sense. Have a nice day!

Process chain: manual data change as start process?

Hi,
i have two BWs in which i hold identical InfoObjects (master data). now i want to use a process chain to transfer any changes made to the data in BW X into that object in BW Y.
is it possible to use manual changes of this master data as a start process for the process chain? i only saw the possibility to use InfoPackages and so on. but my process chain should just be triggered by a manual change in the master data attributes.
how do i configure an event as a trigger for the process chain? i do not see the purpose of a start process because i do not see how i can link it with an event...
cheers,
stefan

Hi Ram,
i hope I understood everything right.
the table that you called "ztest1" I replaced with /BIC/PVCOM1_U02. That is the copy of the master data from the remote system.
The table in the local system, with which we compare the table /BIC/PVCOM1_U02, has the name /BIC/PVCOM1.
The name of the event I created is called "VCOM_DATA_CHANGE".
And here it goes...
****************BEGIN OF PROGRAM**********
*& Report Z_EVENT_DATA_CHANGE
REPORT Z_EVENT_DATA_CHANGE.
/BIC/PVCOM1_U02 is the table copied from the remote system
/BIC/PVCOM1 is the table containing the master data on the current system
tables: /BIC/PVCOM1_U02, /BIC/PVCOM1.
data: zrec_old(15), zrec_new(15) type c.
data: ztest_old type /BIC/PVCOM1_U02 occurs 10 with header line,
ztest_new type /BIC/PVCOM1 occurs 10 with header line.
select * from /BIC/PVCOM1_U02 into TABLE ztest_old.
zrec_old = sy-dbcnt.
select * from /BIC/PVCOM1 into TABLE ztest_new
where OBJVERS = 'A'.
zrec_new = sy-dbcnt.
if i understood correctly, we sort the tables by field names
so i replaced CURRENCY and ANSALARY by /BIC/PVCOM2_U02, which is the only field in my table beside /BIC/PVCOM1_U02
sort ztest_old by /BIC/ZTEST1 CURRENCY ANSALARY.
sort ztest_old by /BIC/PVCOM1_02 /BIC/PVCOM2_U02.
sort ztest_new by /BIC/PVCOM1 /BIS/PVCOM2.
if zrec_old <> zrec_new.
perform event_raise.
else.
loop at ztest_new.
read table ztest_old with key
/BIC/PVCOM1_U02 = ztest_new-/BIC/PVCOM1 "dot missing?
/BIC/PVCOM2_U02 = ztest_new-/BIC/PVCOM2.

Error in PSA after running process chain

Hello All,
I have ran a process chain, which came back with an error. I have checked the PSA and there is one line which has an error. How can I resolve it and reload the data into the cube succesfully? Is there away to delete the data from the PSA and reload it?
Thanks,
Nick.

Dear Nick,
I will add the step by step procedure to edit PSA data and update into target (request based).
Identifying incorrect records.
System wont show all the incorrect records at the first time itself. You need to search the PSA table manually to find all the incorrect records.
1. First see RSMO > Details > Expand upate rules / processing tabs and you will find some of the error records.
2. Then you can go to PSA and filter using the status of records. Filter all the red requests. This may also wont show the entire incorrect records.
3. Then you can go to PSA and filter using the incorrect records based on the particular field.
4. If this also doesnt work out go to PSA and sort (not filter) the records based on the particular field with incorrect values and it will show all the records. Note down the record numbers and then edit them one by one.
If you want to confirm find the PSA table and search manually."
Also Run the report RS_ERRORLOG_EXAMPLE,By this report you can display all incorrected records of the data & you can also find whether the error occured in PSA or in TRANSFER RULES.
Steps to resolve this
1. Force the request to red in RSMO > Status tab.
2. Delete the request from target.
3. Come to RSMO > top right you can see PSA maintenace button > click and go to PSA .
4.Edit the record
5. Save PSA data.
6. Got to RSA15 > Search by request name > Right click > update the request from PSA to target.
Refer how to Modify PSA Data

Error "Lock not set for: Generate index" while running process chain

SAP BI 7.0
SP 17
I am attempting to run a new process chain and the generate index steps are failing with the below errors:
"Lock NOT set forGenerate index"
"RSSM PROCESS INDEX terminated, because InfoCube/DSO object could not be locked."
The process chain just pauses. I let it finish once and it took 2 hours and then it gave the failure messages. I have looked in sm12 and can see the lock records when the process chain is running - unfortunately I can't make much of what's there - everything looks good to me. I also tried creating the indexes manually inside the cube and then re-ran, but still get the same error. Before running the process chain, I can get the indexes to check to green, but then after running the process chain they go back to red. I have attempted many things (including looking at other forum posts), but I still have the error. Please help. Thanks

Hello,
So Create index is getting failed in you PS right?
1)check if any other loads are running to the same CUBE(May be from other PC's also)
Goto Manage of the cube and check, some times it may happen if any Loads are running into cube I mean Load/DTP & roll up may be running.. if so wait till the others Loads(Jobs) get complete then Repeat the failed index
2) If the Create index is running for long time, then got RSDDV--> Select the CUBE then click on BIA index(Maintenance wizard), you can see a message if indexes are running , this will happen only when some one would have tried to generate the indexes manually and it may got failed due to some reason , since u are running it manually u couldn't identify whether it got failed or not unless you got to RSDDV and check. So delete the index here and then rebuild them through PC
Hope it helps!

Long running process chains - No Dump / error message.

Hello,
We have defined some steps in process chain that contains default macros. We mainly included that to ensure calculations happens even when users dont open or access the DP Planning book.
Issue is, these steps are running endless. normally it takes some 400 n odd seconds. But its running for the last 60000 secs.
No. of Planning objects or CVC is 2027 only. I had to cancel them and tried to re run this step or the whole chain no luck....
I have checked active jobs in SM37, there is none. So ideally there is no load on the system. Also no change to Macro or CVC's has been done. there was only one Transport that was moved and it was on the product master.
Also I have done the time series, Live cache, PA Consistency checks. only in Live Cache there was some Superflous time series and it was corrected.
I am not getting a clue of why its happening nor where to start the analsysis.
Any help or suggestion is greatly appreciated.
Currently I have made the subsequent events as independent,& the chain is running execpting this step.
Many Thanks
Aswath Ram.

Thanks for the reply,
These are custom macros. It adds two KF and copies to another.
The no. of periods is 24 time periods and roughly no. of CVC is 2100.
Another thing, this process chain has been running for last 5 to 6 months with no issues. Since sunday, its messing up....
I am doubting if its taking time read data from table or live cache. or is it because of some indexing. Not sure how to check that.
have asked Basis to check the system performance, if it might cause this issue.
Many Thanks
Aswath

To find the Person who run Process Chain lastly

Dear All,
How can I find the last person who has run the process chain? is there any table or program?
Best answer receives reward points.
Cheers,

Hello,
Last Modification
You can see that information in RSPC, enter in the chain that you want to see who was the last modification user, and there is a button that shows that information.
All Modifications
Or you can see the log in RSPC and see the modifications done to the a chain.
SUIM
SUIM is a powerful tool that comes in quite handy for the IT when working with roles and authorizations.
It will not deliver the last modification user of a process chain, for sure.

Invalid DataStore object name error when running process chain after EHP1

Hello,
We recently upgraded our BW Dev platform to NW7.01 EHP1 SP6. I noticed that the layout for "Delete PSA Request" process in the Process Chain has changed after the upgrade. We can no longer specify the actual PSA table to delete eg, /BIC/B0001645. Instead we need to specify the Datasource name and the Source System.
Now after the upgrade when I run one of my process chains, it fails at "Delete PSA Request" step with error message "Invalid DataStore object name /BIC/B0001645: Reason: No valid entry in table RSTS". This datasource is based on the flat file source system and the PSA table for this Datasource is /BIC/B0001653.
Unfortunately the process chain is picking up an older PSA table for this datasource and there is no way for me to specify the current PSA table name after this change in layout with EHP1 upgrade. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue.
Many Thanks,
Al

Hi,
Please implement OSS 1345331.
If this does not help try the below steps:
1. Run the report 'RSAR_PSA_CLEANUP_DIRECTORY/_MS' in check mode for a
       particular PSA table for finding the inconsistencies.
2.   After that please analyze the logs and if there is any problems related to partition, you need to correct them using the report u2013
3. 'SAP_PSA_PARTNO_CORRECT' in repair mode for the
      PSA tables. Run the report again after this
4. 'RSR_PSA_CLEANUP_DIRECTORY/_MS' in check mode to
     double check that the invalid partitions are
     corrected.
     Once this is done you can execute the report
     'RSR_PSA_CLEANUP_DIRECTORY/_MS' in repair mode.
