process chain step termination---intentionally failing it

[Former Member]

Hi ,

in a process chain i have a step for executing a program. the program terminates when certain condition is met.

rite now it is running infinitely if the condition is not met.

There is a requirement to terminate the program after say 2 hours and sent an alert message ( email).

. Is there an exception which can be raised in a program to terminate ( process chain step should fail ).

Your help is much appreciated

Hi,

Though it may not be a perfect solution to your requirement, I want to give you some rough idea to achieve this.

You may create an event in SM62, write a program by based on your system time, set a counter. Once if it reaches counter, you may call an E-mail alert program. If you are not an ABAPer, please take help before going ahead.......

Assign if helps.....
