Many CIF queues in READY status

[former_member561174]

Hello Experts,

We have currently 30,000 CIF queues in our production system in READY status and those are stuck since long.I tried program RSQOWKEX to process queues.Its working for one queue at a time but not many at one shot if i give CIF*.

Please please suggest.

Nisha,

I will assume you are talking about outbound queues. Sounds like the schedular.is not running, or else you may have a communication or resource problem.

If your queue(s) are unregistered, you can register them using SMQS. Look for a missing destination, or a destination with a 'U' (unregistered) in the first column. Also, it can't hurt to 'Activate'. Don't be alarmed if in a few moments the status reverts to 'inactive', this just means that the scheduler is temporarily idle, and has decided that it has nothing to do. More info at

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm70/helpdata/EN/4c/cf5c3c3b067331e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

You can mass process 'Ready' queues in APO using /SAPAPO/CQ. Deselect 'only blocked' select Expand Node, enter all the possible source/destination systems, execute. In the resulting list, look for anything other than the green check, double click. The list of 'ready' queues will appear on the right. Select all, hit the activate Icon (matchstick). Wait. 30K queues may take a day, depending on the content.

Thanks all for valuable replies.Queues were rleated to SO,production orders,materials etc and not stuck in APO system but in another sap system.We created a Z program to process 30k queues and were successful.

Hi,

Out bound queue status Ready means: The queue is ready for transmission. This status should only be a temporary

status. However, in the following case this status can also be a permanent status: A queue was locked manually via transaction SMQ1 or via a program and then unlocked without being activated at the same time. This queue must

be activated explicitly.

Inbound queue status ready means: The queue is ready for processing. This status should only be a temporary

status. However, in the following case this status can also be a permanent status: A queue was locked manually via transaction SMQ2 or via a program and then unlocked without being activated at the same time. This queue must

be activated explicitly.

Thanks ,

What kind of queues are they ? I mean are they Material Master or Sales Orders, Production Orders, etc ? Are you seeing them in the Inbound or Outbound queue monitor ? Are you seeing the queues stuck in the ECC or SCM system ?

Are you running a process that generates a lot of queues at the same time ? For example, Heuristic/ CTM run or Backorder Processing run in SCM or maybe a delivery job in ECC ?

Are you using Inbound or Outbound Queue processing (What are your settings in transaction CFC1 in ECC and transaction /SAPAPO/C2 in SCM) ? Use of Inbound Queue processing is recommended.

Try to save them first (SMQ3) then restore/reactivate them again. They should be included on the next ourbound/inbound processing.

Cheers!
