Hi Srikanth,

If you need master data process chains to run them on monthly basis, then Go to start variant of process chain and check for Scheduled Check box and click on Edit Conditions option,

And then  you can specify your conditions --> click on Date/Time Button and give relevant scheduled date and time.

Then click on Period values to specify your periodic condition.

Please go through link http://scn.sap.com/thread/1191872 for more details.

Thanks,

Hi ,

1. Go to RSPC transaction.

2. Right click on any display component and select 'create process chain'.

3. define start process --> create start variant.

4. Add loading step for master data --> Choose 'execute info package' from process types and specify info package name for data source from which you are loading data to master info object.

5. Add a DTP process --> Choose 'Data transfer Process' from process types and specify technical name for DTP for master info object to load data from data source to master info object.

Thanks,

Hi,

In your Master data Info Object, there is already one DTP request with status Red. So Please delete that request and Try again.

Hi,

Generally we face this issue if data coming from data source does not match with properties of Info object.

Assign info object as type to fields for Datasource.

Hi,

it might have duplicate data, delete above RED request firs, when dealing with master data, choose "handle duplicate record keys" in DTP Update tab. Now repeat DTP and see.
