Transport process chains

Hi all
Please list out the steps to transport process chains from QAU to PRD.
We have all hte infopackages,DTP's,infoobjects int he production.
Now we need to transport ProcessChains.
Intransport connection->Grouping option?collection option?
Please suggest me.
Thanks,
Harika.

Hi Harikag,
The problem that you are facing is most often faced when the transport is made from DEV / QUA system to production system. This occurs more often when objects already existing in production are re-transported to production. Most of the times the corresponding transformation / DTP's get inactive. Nothing can be done as the the entire thing depends on way you transport the objects to production, only prevention is possible or else you need to apply the cure :). Don't worry as this is common scenario during transports. Try activating the transformations manually or you can try to re-transport objects in correct order. Please check the below thread, it will help you to find out the programs that can be used to activate the inactive objects manually.
ODS and Transformations get inactive after i transport it in PD.
Also check the below SCN doc which would be really helpful in case of handling inactive transformations:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10858449-1f59-2e10-0095-dde76e16d330?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
Also in case you are transporting a chain then do remember that the start variant of your Metachain & all the local chains if any should be for future date else the chain starts to run automatically once the chain is moved to production. Once the chains are moved then you will need to manually change the scheduling option as per your requirement i.e main or metachiain for the required time & local chains with "start using a metaching or API option". This point should always be remembered during a fresh transport for a new process chain.
Hope that the above info helps you in solving your problem.
Thanks

Errors transporting process chains

Hi,
we got some problems while transporting process chains.
The error occurs in the method execution. The transport log says:
Start of the after-import method for object type R3TR RSPC (Activation Mode).
Version 'M' of chain <i><name of the chain></i> was saved without checking.
0 Chains Were Selected.
Message no. RSPC031
Specifying process chain ID <i><name of the chain></i>, type V2&', and variant '' has resulted in the selection of 0 process chains. The selection has been called without confirmation by the user. This means that the user was unable to make a selection.
The function is terminated.
There is probably an error in the program. Look for corresponding notes.
We can't find any notes for this error message. The whole thing is confusing, because sometimes we find the chain in the target system, sometimes not.
Has anybody experiences with this kind of problem and how to solve it?
Thanks.
Knut

Hi,
Did you make sure that you transported all the process variants that the chain is using?
Please, check that by going to transport connection and transporting your process chain.
We always use that method to transport process chains: first getting all variants from the chain on transport connection and putting them on a transport request. Second establishing the start time of the PC and finally activating and scheduling the PC. You then release and transport that order.
Which version is your system? 3.0B?
Regards,
David.

Transporting Process Chains that execute based on Events

Hi,
I am new to Process Chains and would appreciate some help. I created a process chain in our Development environment. The Chain executes based on an Event trigger. I activated and scheduled the chain. I then transported the chain to our Quality Assurance environment. The chain looks like it transported correctly. However, if I look in sm37, there is not a job out there for the Process Chain with a Release status. Therefore, if I trigger the event, the Process Chain does not run.
What am I missing?
Thanks.

Hi Tekii:
I created many Process Chains and I never had this problem.
NOTES: You cannot transport Process Chain Scheduling.
Do these steps in sequence and let us know what happened.
1) Go to DEV. Open the Process Chain Start Process. Copy the Event Technnical Name. If the Event has a parameter, copy that one too.
2) Go to QAS. Run transaction SM62. See if the event does exist in QAS. (You cannot transport Events, they have to be manually created). If the event doesn't exist, create that event.
3) GO to QAS Process Chain, De-Schedule the Chain. Open the Start Process. Check and see if the Event is the same name. Make sure that, if there is a parameter in DEV paste it in QAS. Check Mark Periodic. Now, Activate and schedule the Process Chain.
4) Now, trigger the event. If the Event has a Parameter, you have to add the parameter too. NOTE: Parameter is case sensitive.
5) The name of Function Module to trigger is: BP_EVENT_RAISE
It needs: Event Name, Event Parameter (if needed), & TARGET_INSTANCE (Copy the Source System Technical Name from BW QAS using RSA1 so that therer are no typos).
Now, tell what happened.
Good luck.

Error in remote call of destination - when transporting process chain

Hi all,
I have earlier not had troubles transporting process chains from development system to test. Now I get the following error
Error in remote call of destination BW Test
Message no. RSPC051
Diagnosis
The following error occurred during the remote function call for destination BW Test:
Name or password is incorrect (repeat logon)
System Response
A short dump has probably been written in the other system.
Procedure
Look at the short-dump overview in the other system.
I know we have a transaction (RSTPRFC) where we give the password for the user that will do the activation of the PC after transport, but checking with the basis guy, and according to him there has not been any changes to this user. (As the user is the same as the RFC user used when setting up source systems). Running a check on the source systems from RSA1 gives green on all, so then the user should be correct...
(there is also no short dump available in the other system)
Does anyone have a clue on what could be done to locate the error..?
Thanks
Regards,
Øystein

Hi,
you are both right, and I got the issue corrected. In SM59 i have an ABAP connection that when checking it, gave me a logon error. When getting this connection working (by giving another password) and then setting the same password in RSTPRFC, the transport worked.
I'm just not sure I understand why this became an issue.
But anyway, thanks for the input.
Regards,
Øystein

Transporting Process Chains

I have not transported process chains before so wanted to check:
When transporting process chains do they by default come across inactive and you need to activate them on the receiving system, or are they supposed to be transported in the active state. I would expect the latter but just needed a confirmation

Hi Niten,
process Chains will be transported and needs to be activated and Schedules in the target system, i face the same probelm when transportes from DEV to QTY System.
even for meta Chains you have to trigger events and schedule the meta chains to be triggered by main chain for else mata chains will not be triggered.
hope this helps

Maintaining Transported Process Chains

Hello,
we transported few process chains from our Dev system to Production BW. Now, we are trying to modify the transported process chains in Production BW. It is asking for a transport# when we try to do this. Is it possible to set the system, so it won't ask us for a transport# when making changes to transported process chains?
We are currently on BI 7.0.
Thanks.

If it asking for transprots then Your Prodcution system is Open ....
System Open options:
SCC4: Changes without automatic recording
Changes to repository and cross client customizing objects allowed
Protection level1: NO overwriting
eCATT and CATT allowed
Uncheck all restrictions
then go to se06
System change option: global settings
change from non modifiable to modifable
Systsem closed options:
Changes and transports for client-specific objects-- No changes allowed
Client-independent object changes
No changes to Repository and cross-client customizing objects
Protection level 1: no overwriting
Restriction wehnt starting CATT and ecATT:
ecatt and catt allowed
se06 and change all modifiable to non modifiable.

Transport process chain by transport connection step by step

Hello expert:
how to transport process chain by transport connection step by step?
Many thanks,

Go to RSA1 -> Transport Connection.
Make sure Only Necessary objects is selected under Grouping.
Expand Process Chain -> Click on Select Objects -> Search for the process chain you want to transport.
Select it and click transfer.
When finished collecting - Click on the Red Truck. Create a transport request when prompted to create a request.
Then go to SE10 or SE09 -> Find your request and right click and select release on your transport request as well as the task under it.
After it is released you can check the log by clicking on the log button and see if your transport moved successfully to target system.
Good Luck.

Error in transporting process chain

Hi
i added two DTP's in the process chain and transported. The transport ended with errors.
The following is the error msg:
Results of check for process AND EVEN_4CEJM320EVCIY0L5L62W61JVB in chain PC_BI_TD_POSDM_CAST:
Process variant AND EVEN_4CEJM320EVCIY0L5L62W61JVB does not exist in version A
Results of check for process AND EVEN_4CEJM320EVCIY0L5L62W61JVB in chain PC_BI_TD_POSDM_CAST:
Process variant AND EVEN_4CEJM320EVCIY0L5L62W61JVB does not exist in version A
I saved and activated the process chain but still transport to QA ending with errors.
When i saved the process chain in DEV, i am getting the msg:
Version 'M' of chain PC_BI_TD_POSDM_CAST was saved without checking
What does that mean?
REgards
Annie

Hi
If I got your question properly, Your AND Event is not Collected at the time of Transport.
Try to Re Export the Process chain with all necessary grouped objects.
Version 'M' of chain PC_BI_TD_POSDM_CAST was saved without checking
What does that mean?
Try to Check-- Save and then Activate and Then Transport .
Please follow the Sequence for the transport, You may recheck the flow again
Transport Sequence
Info Objects,
DSO
INFO CUBE
TRANSFORMATIONS
MP
INFOSETS
PROCESS CHAINS
QUERIES
Objects need to be transported with respect to their
dependencies
InfoProviders will bring in all relevant InfoObjects
Importing of Global variables is dependant on their reference
InfoObject being already active
Queries, workbooks and roles are dependant on InfoProviders
and InfoObjects being active
Use the Transport Connection Tool to analyze your objects
Transport all customer-defined packages (dev classes) before
transporting objects
Transport InfoProvider(s) using the "In Data Flow Before" or
"Only Necessary Objects" grouping option
Transport all Global Variables with primary package
assignment
i.e. ZBW
Transport BEx objects with appropriate individual package
assignment
Transport roles and workbooks together.
Hope it helps

Error "Object 'DM' (APCO) of type 'Application' is not available in version 'A'" while transporting process chain to production system.

Hi Gurus,
Whenever I try to transport a process chain ZFI_0FIGL_C10 from dev. to qua. & prod. the error “Object 'DM' (APCO) of type 'Application' is not available in version 'A'” is displayed in the end of creating transport package.
The process chain was created to load data to 0figl_c10 and it works all right on all systems (dev. qua. prod.).
The process chain contains processes for:
- starting the process chain
- executing infopackage (for loading data to 0figl_o10),
- ACR (activate data in 0figl_o10)
- delete index 0figl_c10
- DTP loading data from 0figl_o14 to 0figl_c10
- executing infopackage 80FIGL_O10
- creating index in 0figl_c10
- building DB statistics
- rolling up aggregates in 0figl_c10
- deleting of requests from the changelog 0figl_o10
- deleting of requests from PSA (0fi_gl_10)
How to find what cause that error.
Regards,
Leszek

Hi,
A SAP consultant told me to ignore that error.
Indeed, after creating transport with some new process chains (again I was informed about that error "APCO ...") and transporting it to production everything works all right.
The problem is described in sap note: 883745.

Error in Transporting Process Chain in BI 7.0

Hi Gurus,
i m getting following error "Object 'DM' (APCO) of type 'Application' is not available in version 'A' " in BI 7.0 while transporting a process chain.
I thought it my have issues with version of process chain, but the proces chain is in A version still is gives above error.

[Hello Sonal,|http://chandranonline.blogspot.com]
APCO denotes the OLTP Application Component. So check all the Application Components used in the PC are available.

Error in Transporting Process Chains

Hi All,
I have a requirement of changing the object name of the Process Chain.
This I have achieved by copying the existing process chain and meeting the naming conventions of the process chain as per client requirement.
Now As both the process chain have the same start variant shows the error. Again I have solved the same by removing the start process of the original process chain and created a new start process for the original process chains. This now shows no error.
The problem is when I try to transport the copied process chains I am getting the error pop up message
"Edit objects separately since they belong to different original systems"
Kindly help how to transport the same

Transporting Process Chains-includes the ERROR DTPs in the Target System

Hello Gurus,
Iam facing an issue in version NW2004s while transporting the Process Chains from DEV to QA. The Process Chains in the Target system are including the ERROR Dtps as parallel loads along with the regular DTP.This happens when there exists an ERROR DTP in the Target system at the time of Transport.
This will cause a problem
1.these would run parallel to the regular DTPs.
2.no of back ground processes running at any point will be beyond our limit.
Let me know if you have faced the same issue and how you resolved it.
Thanks

Error in Decision Process Type Transport ( process chain)

Hi,
I have used a decision process type in my process chain and hence used the BW formula builder to create the logic for the "if then else" conditions of the decision process type. I have collected the process chain with all the required components like the process chain, the start process type, the decision process type and the corresponding formulas.
The trasnport went in fine with a warning (return code 4), but the formulas didn't get transported. The transport log reads like "An error occurred when deleting formula XYZ version A" at the RS_RSFO_AFTER_IMPORT. The overall status is a 4 and even though the log reads like "An error" it is in yellow indicating that it is just a warning.
I checked in target system ..other objects are transported except for the formulas. The table RSAFORMMAP doesn't contain any record for the formula ID XYZ in the target system whereas the sender system has corresponding entries.
Transport requests are colleceted properly.. i able to see formula ID , all object table in TR. but stll its not moving to target system..
what will be the issue?
Regards
Rajesh

Could you please help me?
Thanks

Hello Ramona,
Please check the following points,
1. Process Chain is active without any error before transporting
2. All the Processes, variants are collected in the transport request and package.
3. Do set the Process Chain Start to Immediate(background jobs) in the schedule, because this will trigger the process chain once tranported and may cause similar errors
Thanks
