What is attribute changerun and process chain?

hi experts,
what is attribute changerun and processchain. pl explain these two with a business case.
thanks & regards
venkat

Hi Venkata,
For attribute changerun,
It's used after you change (add/delete/modify) attribute in the master data. You've to make it in order to have an effect after you modify it.
To get it :
1. tcode : RSA1.
2. Tools -> Apply Hierarchy/Attribute Change
3. tap on Info-object list button (checking what master data you've modified before).
4. tap on selection button for type of job
5. Execute.

For process chain,
Using this you can make a flow of process sequentially.
e.g.
the flow :
1. generate program YWS001
2. get the data from table zcrm001
3. load data to ods : zods_001

  • Can anyone explain me what is Attribute Changerun, in detail, Urgent

    Can anyone explain me what is Attribute Changerun, in detail

    If you assign the process type Attribute Change run to a process chain you must define a variant. With this variant you have to define the InfoObjects for which you want to activate the master data. There are four different possibilities:
         HIERARCHY: direct selection of the hierarchy which need to be activated
         INFOOBJECT: direct selection of the infoobjects which need to be activated
         LOADING: indirect selection: reference to an InfoPackage, which must be loaded before in the process chain. Combined with the meta data of these objects and the instance information the system derives the affected InfoObjects and hierarchies. If the chosen LOADING object is not in the process chain, the system automatically inserts the chosen infopackage in process chain.
         REPORTVARIANT: indirect selection: reference to a change run variant which you can define with RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN (SE38) or TCode RSATTR  Executing the Attribute/hierarchy change run with Variant:
    Instead of applying the InfoObjects or hierarachies directly to the process variant in RSPC you can create a central variant for the report RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN. You can assign InfoObjects and hierarchies to this report variant. This central variant could be used by several process variants in RSPC. The benefits are central maintenance, ..

  • What is polling flag in process chain

    Hi everbody,
    What is meant by polling flag in process chain.
    Points will be awared generously
    Thanks in advance

    polling flag is an attribute of a process chain.
    With this indicator you can control the behavior of the main process when you have distributed processes. Distributed processes, such as the loading process, are characterized as having different work processes involved in specific tasks.
    With the polling flag you determine whether the main process needs to be kept as long as the actual process has ended.
    By selecting the indicator,
    a high level of process security is guaranteed, and
    external scheduling tools can be provided with the status of the distributed processes.
    However, the resource use of the system is increased and a background process is more necessary

  • Back ground processes, dialogue processes and Process chains

    Hai all,
               I am going through making process chains and I am struck with one thing:
    "How many background process chains and dialogue processes you have during run time"
    This is the problem. I understood everything else except this.The concept says that I have to know what is the capacity of the system, how many background and dialogue processes it could accomodate, how many are left and how many you can use for your process chain.How do we find out this? and could somebody please explain me or refer to documentation about the Back ground processes, dialogue processes and Process chains.
    Thanks.

    Hi Visu,
      You can see the number of dialog and background processes by using transaction SM51 and then double clicking on the server (we only have one but it may be different for each). Our BASIS folks take care of the number of processes as well. And, for us we have a schedule that changes the number at a certain time of day because you tend to need more dialog during the day but more batch at night.
      The transaction to look at and change the settings is RZ03. Then use the menu path Edit->Operation Modes you can select either Configuration or Timetable here. Both give information in different ways. I tend to double click around to see what it might tell me.
      I hope this helps a bit,
    Diane

  • What will u do if process chain fails?

    Hi gurus
    What will u do if process chain fails?
    Thank in advance?
    Raju

    Hi rajaiah
    Firstly if a process chain fails, identify the process that has failed and on the context menu of the failed process you will get an option called display message where you can find the exact reason for the failure. A process chain can fail in many cases. So first try to find the error occured . For example if a process chain has failed due to invalid records then we have to edit the psa and reload the data from psa to data target (reconstruction). Based on the error message you need to take the necessary actions...
    Hope this may help you.. please assign points if found helpful.

  • Differences Between Infopackage Groups and Process chains

    Hi All,
    Can anybody explain me what are the differences between Infopackage Groups and Process Chains ? And how process chains are more comfortable

    hi nagarjuna,
    An InfoPackage group is a collection of InfoPackages. In order to summarize data requests which logically belong together from a business point of view, and to therefore simplify the request, you can collect data requests (meaning the InfoPackages) into an InfoPackage Group. You can schedule each of these groups in the scheduler . With the data request the scheduler can access InfoPackage groups directly and thereby request more than one InfoPackage at a time, corresponding to the setting in the InfoPackage group. Thus, you can support InfoPackage groups with the serialization of your data requests.
    While a process chain is a sequence of processes that wait in the background for an event. Some of these processes trigger a separate event that can start other processes in turn. hit this link to know abt PCs:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/8f/c08b3baaa59649e10000000a11402f/content.htm
    Process chains are more comfortable becoz itz not like infopackages where we have to schedule each pack individually. And in PCs, monitoring is very convenient since u see evrything in a single page.

  • 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.

  • What is the cost and process for factory refurbish of a tx2-1375dx with a blown system board?cc=us

    What is the cost and process for factory refurbish of a tx2-1375dx with a blown system board?
    How would one go about arranging for such service?
    Why is it impossible to contact a real human for support, either via online chat or phone? 

    Last I checked I am a real human, it is just that I do not work for HP and can't speak for them. HP would not be the place I would go for a "refurbish" job. They charge an arm and a leg for out of warranty service. You simply need to find someone to replace the system board (motherboard). It is also very likely on that model that you could have your system board repaired. There are many services on ebay that will repair the motherboard at the component level. The cost would be at or under $100 or so. I have more advice to give but many times I write a detailed response only to have the user never come back. I do check my posts so if you want more ideas just please respond. The tx2-1000 was one of the models affected by the nVidia issue that caused so many HP laptops made in the 2007-2009 era to fail prematurely. 

  • Attribute Change Run Process chain

    Hi,
    We have a attribute change run step in Process chain with "selective infoobjects".
    But when it executes it runs attribute change run for all infoobjects apart from what i have mentioned in the variant.
    Proof:
    I had a snapshot of infoobject list in RSA1->Tools->Attribute change Run before executing process chain in which i saw info objects other than what i had in the variant.
    I ran the process chain.
    Again I saw the infoobject list RSA1->Tools->Attribute change Run and it was empty!!
    Even though I mention some infoobject in process "Attribute change Run" It runs for all info objects irrespective of what I maintain in the variant.
    This causes problem and creacting lock. If anyone ever observed this problem and resolved please let me know!!
    Thanks
    VJ

    well here is the POC ,I have nw204s SP-12 .
    Steps followed -
    Monitor of change run - 3 infoobjects currently waiting for CR.
    Built PC with Process type "Attribute  Change"  only ..no other process types barring "Start" which is imperative.
    Included only 2 Infoobjects from the 3 aforementioned.
    Scheduled as immediate and it executed CR for the 2 only,so my CR monitor shows now 1 pending for CR to be run,which is as expected.
    So as per Proof of Concept sp-12 works with process type "Attribute  Change"
    You may wish to check your process chain again and in worst case raise an OSS to SAP.
    Hope it Helps

  • Data Manager Packeage and Process chain si not working

    Hi All,
    I executed a data manager package which contain a process chain to revaluate the one of my Account dimension meneber Say  "Revenue". I am working on BPC NW 7.0
    steps I followed:
    1. I created a script logic file and created a custom process chain.
        process chain steps:
      a) Start variant
      b) Modify dynamically
      c) Run Logic
      d) Or and Clear BPC tables
    2. This process chain was included in data manager package.
    3. Data manager package was modyfied to include parameters and scipt logic file name.
    4. executed data package
    The issue is " when I execute Data manager Package" I dont get any error but when I View status I dont see any pachage running or completed. If I see Process chain, It is failing at first step of Modify dynamically..no clue?
    Could you please let me know what could be a issue?
    Cheers,
    SAC

    I encounter this problem, Do this Steps:
    I. First,check if your process chain is existing in the Library.
    II.If yes,follow the steps below:
    1. Edata - organize Package - Modify your Package.
    2.Check if you had the correct process chain.
    3.IF yes, Click View package at its right side.
    4.Expand the Task Folder and take note of the Task Name (e.g. ZBPC_PROT_RUN_LOGIC)
    5.click Advance,Compare the task name that you noted in the syntax TASKS
    (e.g. TASK(ZBPC_PROT_CF_RUN_LOGIC,SUSER,%USER%)
    6. It should be the same.
    Running package but not appearing any status happens when the system cannot find your process chain.
    hope this helps,

  • Delta loading and Process chain BI

    Hi experts,
    Two Issues.
    1)As i am loading FI data into dso through a process chain which includes Start process>Delta infopackage(which gets data upto psa)>Delta dtp-->Datastore activation.
    But infopackage is picking up deltas but DTP is picking up all the previous records plus deltas.
    100 records  -- 1st day throught Intialization of Delta with Data Transfer
    2 delta records  --   2nd day
    But DTP is picking up 102 Records on the 2nd Day, which means it is also  picking the old records as well.
    The DSO must have just 102 records but it is having 202 records.
    2) A process chain in running daily as scheduled , but I rescheduled with new scheduling options without deactivating the Process chain.
    My Question is
    Will the Process chain run for the OLD and the New Schedule or
    Is it going to run for new schedule or old one?
    or
    will I face any Problem because I did not deactivate and made changes to the Change.
    Please help me in this matter.
    Thanks in advance.
    Bhadri.

    First query:
    I believe that u have used FUll update type DTP is instead of the Delta DTP.. Please cross check the Update mode of the DTP once.
    To resolve this issue, delete the total content of the DSO as u have Init and delta loads in PSA. And then using the Delta DTP of the Process chain, load the data. It will extract the total cotent what ever is there in PSA, and later the same DTP will act as the Delta type  and will pick the data from the New request of the PSA.
    Second Query:
    Its always suggested to deschedule the process chain before changing the schedule timings. When ever u do this type of scheduling, just check how many number of JObs available in Schedule mode, if u can see more than one, then delete the older one and keep the new one as it is.
    But I always suggest you to deschedule the process chain and reschedule  PC with the new timings and then activate the same.
    Thanks

    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.

    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.
