Scheduling DTPs without Process Chains

Hello all,
Just the same way as scheduling an InfoPackage for later execution, can DTPs also be scheduled manually for later and recurring execution without using Process Chains.  I wagely remember that I figured out a way sometime back, but cannot remember it now.  It could be thru a function module OR ABAP program OR something else.  Any help will be appreciated.
Regards
Sankar

You can't schedule DTP manually except process chain.

  • Urgent Issue - Copy DTP and Process Chains in New Client Instance

    We have created new client Instance ( CLNT 510 ) based on our present client ( CLNT 500 ).
    We have all the process changes, application components from source system CLNT 500 and data ( both for master and transaction data ) in place for the CLNT 500.
    Now we need to use the CLNT 510 for our futher development. RFC connection has been established.
    Just want to know, do we need to create all the Application component trasfer , Transformation, DTP , Infopackages , Process chains again for the CLNT 510 data.
    please help.
    Thanks and Kind Regards,

    Hello Jr Roberto,
    Hello Jr Roberto,
    We have company implementing mutiple SAP Implementations in different countries.
    Client for BW Dev is 400.
    Source system for Client BWD :
    ECC Client ERP Dev - 500 ( for Holland Implementation )
    ECC Client EPR Dev - 510 ( for German Implementation  - Instance of ECC 500)
    We are completed with the Client 500 implementation.
    We are starting the german implementation and they have created a intance of Holland ECC Dev client 500 for german implementation with german data.
    Now they have setup 2 rfc connection in BWD 400.
    Also finally when they move to QAS client they are going to integrate the data of the both countries into one client.
    Presenlty I need to use ECC client 510 client for our german development.
    We have around 40 SAP BI reports in our first implementation. and around 10 in our second implementation.
    Just want to know, what are issues to be considered in loading master data ( will it overwrite the master data from the client 500, if i extract the master data from client 510 )...and all the other issues like can I copy all the process chains...etc  from client ECC 500 to ECC 510, without creating all transformation, DTP , Infopackages to load all the master from client 510 again.
    I need a broad understand on how to go about the development ...starting with Application Components transfer from source system Client 510 ....to report development. ( if possible using the already created objects....infopackages , DTP etc..)
    your help would be really appricated Mr Roberto.
    Thanks and Kind Regards,

  • How to schedule infospokes in process chains..

    Hi All,
    I have a few infospokes to be scheduled in a process chain. In each infospoke, I have upto 10 jobs that are to be scheduled one after the other. At the end of these jobs I have to run a FTP script. I am new at creating the process chains. So can anybody help me out in letting me know:
    1. How to create a start process where I can select a given job by using its name
    2. How to run a FTP script as a follow up step on completion of a previous step.
    Thanks in advance
    John

    Hi John
    it a big task to explain all so I will try to give you the high level picture.
    1. process chain is easy to implement and learn.
       usually it is triggered either by a batch job or a
       batch job that fires an event.
    2. to call an OS (like Win or Unix) from the PC you can
       trigger an event from the end of the PC to call a
       ABAP program that will initiate an OS call.
       you use trx: SM69   - External Operating Sys Commands
       to set this call up.
    3. to implement an FTP you can do via a batch file with
       OS commands or by using free utilities (there are many of them).
    I hope it helps.

  • Cancel the scheduled jobs for process chains - urgent

    Hi,
    How do I cancel the scheduled jobs for process chains which are going to run tonight.
    thanks,
    Radha

    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.
    Thanks

  • Scheduling of a process chain in two meta process chains

    Hi,
    ( Meta process chains - X, Z
      X - runs at 2 a.m. daily
      Z - runs after every two hours daily from 9 a.m. to 10.30 p.m
    Process chain - Y is to be included in X & Z)
    There is a Meta process chain X which is scheduled for 2 a.m. daily. This meta process chain contains another
    process chain Y.
    I want to schedule another Meta process chain Z which executes after every two hours daily. Now I want to include process chain Y in Z, with the condition that if system time is 11 a.m. or later than it only then it should be scheduled.
    Since this process chain  is contained in Meta process chain X, its start variant
    has Immediate Start selected. I don't want to change this start variant.
    Is there any option or event through which this can be achieved?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Manisha

    You need a program to trigger event (using function module BP_EVENT_RAISE). You can include this program and variant only in the process chain as a ABAP process type.
    The program will have a condition based on the time (you can use parameters to make it dynamic), when ever the specified time condition will be satisfied, it will trigger the event.
    So whenever you will execute the process chain X, everytime ABAP process type will also be executed. But the event will be raised only at a specific time, so is it process chain Y. Therefore it will not affect process chain X execution.

  • How to delete  old schedule time of process chain after changing

    I am try to change the schedule time of process chain on production but after changed the old schedule is still working (i.e. every day on 7 am I want change it to 6 am only) ,one process scheduled two time.
    I want only last changed. How to remove the older one?
    Thanks

    hmm wierd...one more thing check if this process chain get trigger by anyother process chain by some abap program or any.
    Check the table rspcchain to know if it has any meta chain or not. IF not follow the below steps :
    make your process chain trigger based upon the event. Follow the below step.
    1.SM64 ---> Create event -
    > come to your process chain -> maintain the start variant -> event base---> give that event name here.Now we will be require to create the job which will trigger this event for  this.
    2.Let us take the below PC as example;
    ZL_TD_HCM_004 -- This PC is running after event u2018START_ZL_TD_HCM_004u2019
    3.Go to T Code: SM36 Here we define the Background job which will be available in SM37 after saving it.
    4.It will ask for ABAP Program to be entered. Give it as Z_START_BI_EVENT and Select Variant from the list. (Based on Process chain, you can select it)
    5.Then select Start Conditions and give the start time of process chain. and select periodicity.
    6.Save the newly created job in SM36.It will be now available in SM37.
    This should solve your problem now .. have  fingure crossed
    Thanks,

  • Duplicate DTP in Process chain

    Hi folks,
    I have 2 separate loads (infopackages) scheduled that load into infoobject via a DTP. I can't run these both before running the DTP as this may result in duplicate entries. Ideally, I would run the infopackage 1 followed by DTP and then infopackage 2 followed by the same DTP. Within the process chain workbench, it does not allow for this which is understandable. Is there a way to do this in a process chain? or 2 separate process chains is the only way to achieve this?
    Thanks.

    Hi Intel
    It sorts the entries and delete adjacent duplicate.
    10000     A
    10000    A
    20000    B
    30000    C
    50000    D
    50000    D
    Now it will delete duplicate records like 10000,50000. For InfoObject it does not create any problem as in InfoObject level it is always OVERWRITE.
    and it does all the processing before sending records to InfoObject attribute table
    You can also enable Error Handling in DTP (valid records update, request green) without selecting "Duplicate records handle".
    This will send all the duplicate to Error stack and you can compare and understand how it works

  • First DTP in Process chain giving Error "CX_RSB_WRITE_ERROR"

    Hi All,
    I am facing a problem when I execute a process chain.
    I have a master process chain and 3 sub process chains. Each of these sub process chains are having some DTP in it in a sequential order. These DTP's are Independent of each other, so even if the first one gives you errors, the remaining ones will get executed.
    These DTP's are used to put some files in to the Open Hub Destination, which is the application server, using logical files names.
    now the problem is that, when i execute the master Process Chain, the first DTP in each of the sub Process chains are getting failed by giving an error. the error is as follows.
    Error : Uncaught_exception.
    Exception : CX_RSB_WRITE_ERROR
    Any idea in how to correct this? Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Multiple scheduling of the process chain

    Hi All,
    Please help me regarding this matter.  I need to schedule a process chain to run every wednesday, and also when it runs, it need to run 4 times each hour on wednesday.  I can copy this instance 48 times in SM37, but I think there is a better solution out there.  Thanks in advance for all your advice and opinion.

    Create a new factory calender. This can be done via TCode SCAL (if you search forum you'll find plenty of post on it).
    In this calender except for Wednesday mark all other days of week as holiday.
    Now go to the start variant of the PC.
    Give start date and time of the next Wednesday.
    Select the check box periodic.
    Under period values select other period and use every 4 hours or whatever period values you want.
    Under restrictions select the calender ID you just created and select the radio button do not execute on sundays and hoildays.
    Save settings, activate and schedule the process chain.

  • Scheduling Technical Content Process Chains

    Hello experts,
    I'm trying to schedule the Technical Content Process Chain as per SAP Note 934848 - step 4.
    This step says:
    4. Schedule Process Chains.
    Please schedule the technical content process chains (0TCT*) in transaction RSPC. "INIT" process chains need to be scheduled once and "DELTA" process chains should be scheduled periodically.
    But when I open RSPC I can't find anything with (0TCT*).
    Can anyone help me?

  • Scheduling of a process chain

    Hi All gurus,
    i want to automatically schedule a process chain at a fixed time each day.
    Is it feasible?
    Could you please tell me how to proceed?
    Thanks in adv,
    Federico

    In the Start process of your process chain, select <b>Direct Scheduling</b> and then click the <b>Change Selections</b> icon.  This will bring you to the <i>Start Time</i> window where you can put in the Date/Time you want to start your process chain.  At the bottom of this window, click on the <b>Periodic job</b> box and you will notice another icon way at the bottom called <b>Period Values</b>.  Click this to determine what frequency the job should be rescheduled (ie. daily, weekly, etc.).
    Hope this helps.

  • Unable to find DTP from Process chain after SPS14

    Hi BI-experts,
    After applying SPS14 to our development and our test systems we are experiencing problems with our process chains. The latest problem is that after transporting one process chain (with dtp's) from dev to test the process chain states that the dtp does not exist in active version on test system. In the test system the process chain points to the wrong dtp technical name. The technical name it points to in test system is the techincal name of the DTP in development system. The dtp gets assigned a different name when transported to test, hence the reference to dtp is wrong in test.
    I have tried the following:
    - Reactivate the dtp on test- No success
    - Deleting the dtp from test and transporting it and PC again - No
    success
    - Reactivating the PC and DTP on dev and transporting it again - No
    sucess
    Please help.

    If anyone else experience this problem I can inform you that implementing note 1147587 solved it.

  • DTP IN Process chain

    HI can any explain wats standard DTP and ERROR DTP...?Why we are using the same?

    Hi Arun,
    Std DTP is the one which is used to load data from PSA to infoprovider,
    Error DTP is the one that loads data from error stack.
    Error stack will have the error record resulting from the error handling, you can edit the error record in the error stack and using the error DTP you can load that coorected record to infoproviders.
    Error stack will get the error record only when you enable the error handling in Std. DTP.
    Hope this will help you.
    Assign Points if so

    Its BW 3.5
    in it when we go into infopackage we get options like..
    Scheduling Options
    Subsequent Processes
    in subsequent processes we can tick on chk box for triggereing event.......
