    Process chains are used to automate business intelligence (BI) processes by linking together individual processes in a defined sequence. A process chain consists of a start process to initiate the chain and application processes that represent typical BI activities like data loading, attribute changes, and reporting. Process types include local chains within a single system and meta chains that contain multiple local chains. Process chains are created, maintained, and monitored using transaction code RSPC in SAP.

    Process Chains - Introduction

    Process
    A procedure inside of or external to an SAP systems with a defined
    beginning and end.

    Process Chains
    To automate runs in BI, Processes are brought together in process
    chains.
    Definition:
    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.
    Process Chain Architecture

    Typical Data Load Cycle For Process


    Chain
    Basic Principles of Process Chains

    Openness
    Abstract meaning of Process Any activity with
    defined start and defined ending
    Security
    Processes gets planned before they run and can be viewed with
    standard batch-monitor.

    Starring of successors via batchevents.

    Dumps and Aborts are caught and thus can be treated as failures.
    Responsibility

    Predecessors process is not responsible to start the correct


    successors and provide them with necessary information.

    Successor processes are only responsible to run correctly and


    gather the necessary information.
    Types of Process Chains

    Local Chain
    This is the simple process chain.

    Meta Chain

    This is the main chain which contains one or more local chains

    Remote Chain

    This is the process chain which is in some other systems that in BI.
    Structure of Process Chains

    Process Chain consists of -


    Start Process
    Defines the start of the process chain and all other chain
    processes are scheduled to wait for an event.

    Application Process
    Represents BI activities that are typically performed as part
    of BI operations. Examples include:
    Data Load
    Attribute/Hierarchy change run
    Aggregate Rollup
    Reporting Agent settings.
    Structure of Process Chains

    Collector Process
    Used to manage multiple predecessor processes that feed into the
    same subsequent process. Examples include:

    AND : All of the predecessor processes must raise an event in order


    for subsequent processes to be executed.

    OR : At least one predecessor must send an event.

    EXOR : Similar to regular OR, but there is only one execution of the
    successor processes, even if several predecessor processes raise an
    event.
    Process Chain Maintenance

    Transaction RSPC:
    User Interface: Building a Process Chain
    Building a Process Chain - Example
    Three different Views in RSPC
    Monitoring Feature Log View
    Loading of master and transaction data using a single PC

    Process chain used to load following:

    0D_MATERIAL

    0D_MTLGROUP

    0D_VENDOR

    PURCHASING CUBE COPY (ie. Copy of


    0D_PU_C01

    Create New PC
    Start Variant Creation
    Give Variant name and description
