Hi,
I have executed a Process chain using the FM RSPC_API_CHAIN_START:
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPC_API_CHAIN_START'
EXPORTING
i_chain = 'ZPC_TEST'
I_T_VARIABLES =
https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/status-of-process-chain-execution-using-fm-rspc-api-chain-start/qaq-p/8435364 1/12
2/11/25, 11:50 PM Status of Process chain execution using FM RSPC_AP... - SAP Community
i_synchronous = 'X'
I_SIMULATE =
I_NOPLAN =
I_DONT_WAIT = 'X'
I_POLL =
IMPORTING
e_logid = v_logid
EXCEPTIONS
failed = 1
OTHERS = 2.
I need know when this process chain have finished in order to populate the log by
screen. I was using other function RSPC_API_CHAIN_GET_STATUS into a loop in order
to give the status. This FM return A = Active, G = Green, R = Red OR X = Aborted.
WHILE v_status ne 'G' or v_status NE 'R'.
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPC_API_CHAIN_GET_STATUS'
EXPORTING
i_chain = 'ZPC_TEST'
i_logid = v_logid

I_DONT_UPDATE =
I_DONT_POLL =
IMPORTING
e_status = v_status.
ENDWHILE.
the variable should be updated with the current status of the execution but if i execute
this code the execution not finish (infinite loop).
Please, how could I know the correct status of the PC?
Thx in advance!

Hi,
I think the approach suggested by Anshual is simple and good enough to know the
process chain status information, simply check the status in RSPCPROCESSLOG.
You can go even one step further and know the status of each process in the chain.

Thanks to all!
I'm using the table RSPCPROCESSLOG and checking that all the process have
finished correctly. I think that the other options of the colleages are good too, but i will
use this table (I think that is more simple )
Thanks to all again

Hi,
i can think of below solution:
create 2 custom program : Z_START_PC and Z_GET_STATUS
in Z_START_PC start the process chain using the start FM and then call FM to create a
batch job to schedule Z_GET_STATUS is background.
in Z_GET_STATUS call FM 'RSPC_API_CHAIN_GET_STATUS' ( not in LOOP )and get the
status
if the status is "process chains still running" then create a batch job to schedule
Z_GET_STATUS after say 15 mins again. This will again run Z_GET_STATUS in bkgd after
15 mins.
if the status is "other then process chain running" then fill log accordingly.
goto SE37 and put * batch * to get the FMs to create batch jobs for programs.
Regards,
Neeraj.

While using FM "WHILE v_status ne 'G' or v_status NE 'R'", what is this v_status...
if i correctly understand your question you want to know the status of the Process Chain
which is run by FM 'RSPC_API_CHAIN_START.....
this can be achieved by using select statement on table RSPCPROCESSLOG......there is
a field 'status' in the table by which you can get the status of PC......

Hi ,
Please use
When v_status CA 'AX'
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPC_API_CHAIN_GET_STATUS'
EXPORTING
i_chain = 'ZPC_TEST'
i_logid = v_logid
I_DONT_UPDATE =
I_DONT_POLL =
IMPORTING
e_status = v_status.
ENDWHILE.
This should resolve your issue .
Hope it helps .
Thanks

hi,
i think the above code will also go in infinite loop as the chain will be still running, the
while condition according to me shoul be
WHILE v_status ne 'A'
your code should work fine in this scenario
hope it helps
regards
laksh
