Start variant in Process chain

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

I have three different process chains. I have a new fourth process chain. How can I specify a start condition so that the fourth process chain still being seperate should start only after successful completion of all three process chains? The reason is I am not supposed o touch other three as they are already running.

I apreciate any kind of help.

Thank you.

After your first three local process chains are complete, kick off an event using ABAP process type. You could create this simple program & use it in the ABAP process type:

REPORT ZBW_RAISE_EVENT.

*************************************************************

• Selection screen. **

*************************************************************

selection-screen skip 1.

selection-screen begin of block b1 with frame.

selection-screen skip.

parameters : p_event like btcuev-EVENTID obligatory.

selection-screen skip.

selection-screen end of block b1.

************************************************

• Start-of-selection. **

************************************************

start-of-selection.

perform raise_event.

&----

---

*& Form raise_event

&----

---

• text

----

---

• --> p1 text

• <-- p2 text

----

---

form raise_event.

CALL FUNCTION 'BP_EVENT_RAISE'

EXPORTING

eventid = p_event.

endform. " raise_event

AND use this event in START process of all subsequent process chains.

There is a How to Guide and couple of other documents on the www.service.sap.com/bi.

1)Put an AND after all the first three PC's

2)Connect the AND to ABAP program which raises an event

3)Use this event in the START of the fourth PC.
