  • Key Concepts: 
    Start process is a feature in SAP Business Information Warehouse (BW) that allows users to initiate a process or job in the system. It is used to start a process or job that has been previously defined in the system. This feature is used to automate processes and jobs that need to be run on a regular basis. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the start process feature, users must first define the process or job they want to run. This can be done by creating a process chain in the BW system. Once the process chain is created, users can then use the start process feature to initiate the process or job. The start process feature can be accessed from the BW menu or from the BW transaction code SM37. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When using the start process feature, it is important to ensure that all of the necessary parameters are set correctly before initiating the process or job. This will help ensure that the process or job runs correctly and without any errors. Additionally, it is important to monitor the progress of the process or job once it has been initiated. This will help ensure that any errors are caught quickly and can be addressed before they cause any major issues.
