The Process Chains

[Arthur Wang]

Question:

What are Process Chains?

Answer:

TCode is RSPC, is a sequence of processes scheduled in the background and waiting to be triggered by a specific event. Process chains is nothing but grouping processes. Process variant (start variant) is the place the process chain knows where to start.

There should be min and max one start variant in each process chain, here we specify when should the process chain start by giving date and time or if you want to start immediately. Some of these processes trigger an event of their own that in-turn triggers other processes.

Ex: – Start chain -> Delete BCube indexes -> Load data from the source system to PSA -> Load data from PSA to DataTarget ODS -> Load data from ODS to BCube -> Create Indexes for BCube after loading data -> Create database statistics -> Roll-Up data into the aggregate -> Restart chain from beginning.
