Process Chain not triggering

[Former Member]

Hi,

I moved a process chain to Prod and activated it.

It uses a user event to get triggered.

When I trigger the event, the PC does not start.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Fran

Hi Fran,

Check the Start Variant of this process chain to see what is set up there...can you see the name of this event there?

I already checked the start variant everything is fine.

I checked sm 37. the job ran and finished BUT when i right click on the PC and Display scheduled jobs, it doesnt show it as being finished...just released...not even active or waiting.

when i check logs for the PC, doesnt show that it ran.

Dear Fran,

If every thing is okay with the chain, Thaen try to execute RSPC_CHAIN_ACTIVATE_REMOTE function module in, it will ask for process chain and continue with execution then ur chain will be activated and scheduled.

Now trigger the event

Hope this helps.

If the job is in the status of released means it's not scheduled yet so please schedule the job and trigger the event again.

RRK,

Thanks

Hi Fran,

RSPC_CHAIN_ACTIVATE_REMOTE in not a program, It is a Function Module. It should be in your system.

Dear Fran,

RSPC_CHAIN_ACTIVATE_REMOTE is a function module. Check it in SE37.

hi Fran,

how about the other process chain ? can be started ?

if job only released, can be started, perhaps background user not set properly.

oss note 511475-Scheduling jobs with BW background users

Symptom

You cannot schedule or perform any batch jobs with the BW or source system background user.

The error RSPC 065 occurs in the process chains:"Job could not be scheduled, termination with return code 8"

Other terms

RSPC065

Reason and Prerequisites

The user type is

"CPIC" up to 4.6B

"Communication" as of 4.6C

This user type may not execute or start any batch jobs, irrespective of the user authorizations.

Solution

Set the type of background user to

"Background" up to 4.6B

"System" as of 4.6C

This user type corresponds to the "Communication" type and may also perform background functions.

I can start other process chains.

I had activated and scheduled all of them yesterday. I also made sure that it was a periodic job.

The other thing I just did was remove the pc from schedule. so i think i'll have to now activate it again. but i had activated it like 5 times earlier anyway. still no luck

hi Fran,

check sm37 if any job bi_process_* (bi_process_trigger) scheduled ? the other process chain just work fine ?

no problem with background user used ?

hope this helps.

Hi,

don't forget to schedule it as periodic, activate + schedule(F8)
