BCS Process chain and CT Indicator

Former Member

Has some one executed all BCS jobs thru process chain than executing one by one thru UCMON?

If so how do you tell the process chain to execute the job for selected period, group companies? Have some one seen any document in sdn forum on this?

Has someone analzed the currency translated amount by CT indicator 0,1,2,3. If so what is the purpose it is useful.

Appreciate any inputs in this regard.

Regards,

I have not used the process chain other than via the program UCBATCH00.

However for the CT indicators, if you are getting records with all of these values (1, 2, 3 and 4) it means that the translation method layout has included temporal method and is configured within the translation method. Without the time for going into this is detail my suggestion is to read the SAP documentation regarding the temporal translation method and it will explain this. In brief, it provides more details for translation for analytics and is also useful for cash flow reporting.

Hi Dan, Eugene,

Thanks for the information.

Does it mean the translation indicators are not normally generated with currency translation entires in execution

unless the 'temporal translation' option is choosen in method?

Is there any documenation link to the BCS jobs by process chain

The translation indicator of 1 is typical without the temporal method. As far as I know, the other values are generated only with temporal method.

I do not know about the proces chain documentation.

- IMHO, there is no such links and shouldn't be according to the reasons I mentioned.

It is deemed that everything in BCS should go through the monitor, in order to keep history and consistency.

All the actions from outside BCS under BCS cubes and ODS must be recognised as a very bad practise with a possible threats to the system's security and consistency.
