Hi Pratap,

enter- 'create process chain' in the SAP SCM help and you will get the link.

Alternatively there are many threads in SDN that discuss the process chains. You can refer them also.

Guess Amol would have sent you the document.

Pls letme know if you need any further info.

Hello Emani, how are you?

Process chains are settings that can be made via transaction RSPC.

In this transaction you can select various objects and assemble them as a chain of execution.

For better understanding please visit these articles:

Hi Amol,

I think it is a paid service. Is there any other way ?

Hi Pratap,

Process chain is as good as a batch job with different steps containing different programs/functions. The output of a process chain and a batch job with the same steps and variants would be the same.

We use T Code- RSPC to create/change/display process chains and logs.

Process chains are particularly useful because these are very user friendly, drag and drop and easy to monitor.

You can refer the below URL for more info.

Hi Manotosh,

The URL goes to search site. Is there a specific search word (like process chain) that you are referring to ?

Thank you for your reply.
