Hi,
The Modification Browser
An overview of all modifications and enhancements found in your system can be displayed from the ABAP Workbench choosing the function Overview ® Modification Browser (SE95). You can also display an overview from the Repository Browser using Environment ® Modification Browser.
The following selection screen appears, where you can input selections that limit what the Modification Browser outputs:
Standard selections can be made on the upper half of the selection screen by entering the person who last changed the object, the number of a transport request or the package. If you enter the number of a transport request into the field Last transport request, the system displays only those objects of the request which were not modified in requests created at a later date. If you insert the request number in the field Request/Task, the system displays all modified objects of the object list.
You can use the Note Assistant to import notes into your system and apply the correction instructions contained therein. In the Modification Browser, you can expand a subtree below each note which contains the objects involved in the note correction.
Standard objects that are supported by the Modification Assistant during modification or upgrade can be displayed using the With Modification Assistant checkbox. All other objects are listed under the Without Modification Assistant category. This category also contains all objects that were modified in the current SAP System before the Modification Assistant was introduced.
Business Add-Ins provide you with an overview of all enhancements and modifications undertaken in your system. Further information on this way to create enhancements can be found in the section on Business Add-Ins.
Appends can be append structures, append views or append search helps.
As on the Display Options tab, you can restrict the display of objects modified or reset using specific criteria on the Reset Objects tab.
Once you have made your selections, the system takes you to the Modification Browser overview.
The Color key pushbutton displays a list of what certain highlighting colors mean within the Modification Browser.
Modifications to programs that cannot be assigned to a modularization unit (for example additional fields or comment lines preceding a subroutine) are displayed in the node External modularization units.
You can branch directly to ABAP Workbench tools from the Modification Browser display by placing your cursor on a specific object and choosing Display or Change.
Changes cannot be made to objects currently being adjusted.
You can also undo modifications from the Modification Browser by placing your cursor on a specific object and choosing Reset to original. Further information can be found in the section Resetting to the Original.
The Reset to original function can also be used with objects that were modified without the help of the Modification Assistant. Using this function causes the object to be deleted from the modification overview. If no original is available for the object, it is now treated as an SAP original (modifications may, however, be lost during upgrade).
If new complete objects (programs, function groups, and so on) are created, the corresponding transport object is added to the transport request. If function modules are deleted or view maintenance modules are generated, the associated function group is added to the transport request. In these cases, the Created/Generated node in the Modification Browser is displayed below the associated complete object.
Objects that have yet to be adjusted also show up in the Modification Browser and are highlighted in color. The objects displayed are compared during an upgrade or when a support package is imported in transaction SPAU by choosing Utilities ® Maintenance ® Upgrade utilities ® Program compare. Read the following sections for more information.
SPDD and SPAU are the transaction that are used after the upgrade for modification. SPDD is for adjusting the DDIC changes and SPAU is for all other repository objects like programs etc.

Hi ,.
Once You go to SE95 Give the package name as - J1I2 and Execute .
If some Note has been applied for the package (Whcih Contains your FM) then it will show following nodes
Note Corrections
With Modification Assistant
Without Modification Assistant
Appends
So you need to find under whcih node Your update for FM exits .It must be Visible in red .
Now goto Menubar >>Goto >>Modification Adjustment .
once you adjust ,the FM should become Editable .

Modification Comparison - No Changes Possible

Hi,
I have a program which has been modified (SAPLRSM1) with the implementation of a SAP note 987566. This has made a change which has appended two parameters to an include, which is giving a syntax error.
SAP Note 990672 looks to fix the problem by removing one of the parameters, but I cannot implement this note as it seems to be obsolete, and has the status Implementation Status: Cannot be implemented .
I know exactly where the error is in the code and in the short term want to comment out the parameter which is giving me an issue, but when I go to change the include, I get the message:
Carry out modification comparison for CPUB CL_RSCRT_RDA_TOOLS first. No changes possible
I have ran the modification comparison, but I do not get any further options.
Could somebody tell me where I am going worng and whether it is possible for me to make this change in this way.
We have SAP helping with some work which we are doing on our new 2004's box, but I need to get this part working urgently.
Thanks

Carry out modification comparison for J_1BV45A first. No changes possible

Hi, every expert,
when I change the object J_1BV45A, It appears the error as below:
"Carry out modification comparison for J_1BV45A first. No changes possible
Message no. EU 526
Diagnosis
You are trying to edit an SAP object which has already been changed or enhanced in the current system.
A new version of this object, changed by SAP, has been imported into the system with a Release upgrade.
The new SAP version has not been reconciled with the modified version.
System Response
The system will deny access in change mode or enhancement mode until the objects have been reconciled.
Procedure
Run the modification adjustment (SPAU) for the object. If the object is supported by the Modification Assistant, you can adjust it by clicking the stoplight."
I don't know how to use SPAU to adjust it ? and I donn't know where is the tab 'stoplight'.
Anyone could help me how to resolve it ?
Best Regards,
Michael

Modification comparison

We are upgrading from 4.5b to 4.7.
Whilst attempting to apply a SAP note, the message 'carry out modification comparison first. No changes possible' is received when attempting to modify a standard SAP program.
Any suggestions how to overcome this?

Hi Kevin.
Have you run transaction SPAU prior to your attempt of changing the SAP program?
Sounds like the program has been modified before and now a sap version of the program has been delivered. Before changing the program again, the system wants you to decide what to do with your old modifications.
Hope this helps, Kathrin!

Modification Comparison for SAP object

When we try to modify the program /DBM/MT_TILL_FUNC_D2063, reports the following message
u201CCarry out modification comparison for REPS /DBM/MT_TILL_FUNC_D2063 first. No changes possibleu201D
We just update our DSAP BM 6.00 system to service pack SAPK-60007INDBM from SAPK-60005INDBM.
Before this update was made, we were able to modify the programs, and there was not necessary for a registration key, know on it is necessary to input this key, we input the key from the marketplace, but still we canu2019t modify it.
We already try to do the recommendation mentioned, but the object doesn't show in the browser panel.
What can I do to resolve this issue?
Alvaro Corpeno

Hello Alvaro
   This message is caused because there is/are some object locking the object DBM/MT_TILL_FUNC_D2063 . So to check what action is necessary to take to do so you need to check if the objects are notes or just reuqests:
    - Transaction SE16
    - Table SMODILOG
    - List all entries for object DBM/MT_TILL_FUNC_D2063
    - There you will see for each record field OPERATION
    - Check all entries that contains OPERATION = 'NOTE'
    - On field MOD_NAME you can check the note number - last 4 digits are note version
    - Upload this note via SNOTE transaction.
    - This action will update system entries and unlock the object
Kind regards

Message "Carry out modification comparison... No Change possible" and SPAU

Hi
I'm trying to manually implement SAP note 1400194 and 1428579 both need to amend the Include RPCP45GD.
Every time you try and open the Include in edit mode to apply the changes manually you get the message
"Carry out modification comparison for REPS RPCP45GD first. No Change possible"
So I run SPAU... but the object RPCP45GD does not exist in SPAU so I can't do a modification comparison on something that's not there !
Any ideas how I should proceed ?
cheers Hugh

Modification assistant is on, otherwise SPAU would not work...
Activated object but had no effect...
However I did find a note in SPAU that was unreleased that related to another note that seemed to change the include I am looking at. This may be the reason why it's locked.
SAP's modification assistant is about as useful as a hole in the head !

Carry out modification comparison for REPS first.No changes possible.

Hi all,
      Can anybody help me out. I am new to upgrade project. I have made all the adjustments in SPAU, but left out with one object.
     I have chosen reset to original for this object. When I want to add some custom code. It is not allowing me to do so throwing an error saying that " The object is still in upgrade mode." . It is not locked under transport #, but it is stored in smodilog table under my name.
     I am not able to see this object even in SPAU transaction, to correct my actions.
Thank You in Advance,
Nirmala.

Modification Comparision

Hi friends,
I had applied sap note and now there is one function J_1I6_DETERMINE_EXCISE_RATE , which has one inactive and active version. when i m trying to activate the inactive version it is giving me error 'carry out modification comparison first. No changes possible' .
Please help me out n tell me how should i remove this error.
Good points will be rewarded for helpful answer

Hi,
Once you implement the note, the FM should be activated automatically.
Please check the note content & check whether you need to implement any additional note.
Since this is a standard FM, i dont think you should modify it.
Best regards,
Prashant

Modification problems while applying SAP Note manually

Hi Guys,
I am facing some problems while applying a SAP note manually (it cannot be applied without manual changes).
There is one standard program which I am trying to change for this purpose, but it does not allow me to do so saying "Carry out modification comparison for REPS RPCT8AR1_01 first. No changes possible" !!
Now I can go to SPAU and reset the object, but it will lose all its changes which was done
by 2 SAP notes previously.
How can I apply my SAP Note without reverting the changes ? If I revert the changes, I lose
the changes for other 2 notes !!
Is there a solution for this? please help asap.
Many thanks in advance,
Sandip.

If you did not modified the program manually, you dont have to worry. implement your note from SNOTE transaction.
even if you loose previous modifications, you can always get them back by going SPAU transaction and import the transport numbers.
I had the same problem but we had manual changes to the program that is why didnt allow to implement note

Modification assistant vs without modification assistant

Hello All,
Can any one explain what is the difference between them?
Thanks,
Vibha

hi
Modifications With the Modification Assistant
If the object has not been adjusted in transaction SPAU, a traffic light appears in front of the object. In the Modification Browser these objects are highlighted. When using Reset to original the active version on the database is confirmed as the new original version. The object remains unchanged. Only the modification data is deleted. When using Modification adjustment the version imported in the last upgrade or Support Package is saved in the modification logs as original. In addition, there are the modifications from the adjustment. The Modification Browser (transaction SE95) gives an overview of these modifications.
If the object has been adjusted, in SPAU either a green checkmark or a stop sign appears in front of the object. If an adjusted object is reset to original, the active version is replaced by the original version saved in the modification logs. The modifications made using the Modification Assistant are lost when you Reset to original.
You can use Reset to original in the category With Modification Assistant also for objects that are contained in note corrections.
Already adjusted data elements cannot be reset to the original version. Edit the data element in the ABAP Dictionary to restore the desired status. You can make use of the version administration to do this.
Modifications Without Modification Assistant, Translations, Migration Objects
If the object appears in the tree in one of the categories Without Modification Assistant, Translations or Migration Objects, always the active version becomes the original version when you use Reset to original. The modification log is deleted, independent of whether the object has been adjusted or not. The object itself remains unchanged. If the object has been adjusted, the user gets a warning message. Unlike with objects supported by the Modification Assistant, the original version no longer exists. The modified active version is confirmed as original version.

Add parameter in Function Module

hi all,
I'm trying to add a parameter to function module HRGPBS_HER_GET_SURNAME_NINO.
However, the system is telling me to carry out modification comparison first.
Can someone guide me on using SPAU or SE95, as I don't understand what to enter in the selection area?
thanks

If you go to transaction code: SPAU, you can find the item (program, function module, screen, etc) in question, open the tree to the lower levels. On the lower item, you can choose to save your changes or revert back to original.
The developers should be able to tell what has been changed. In most cases, we wanted to keep our changes with the exception of when a change was made and later a note was released to produce the same result or if new functionality is released related to the item in question.
Hope this helps.

Version compare during SPDD

Hello, We are in the process of carrying upgrade. I am using SPDD. I see some yellow lights for table indexes. For most of the table indexes, when i do the version compare i see that almost 99% of the old version are identical to the current version and need no changes to the new version. Am i doing the version comparison correctly? Do i need to create a Transport (TR) even if the versions are identical? Thanks

Hi Ricky,
It's this function and the literature says it's a valid choice during SPDD phase:
Yes, the object should get added to SPDD TR and should disappear from SPDD after refresh.
However, after reading the follwing helptext to Message no. 0M400 (I do think it applies only to using SE95 to reset, not the SPDD):
"In the Modification Browser (Transaction se95), you can reset modified objects to the original.
Caution: In the SPDD phase, you should never use SE95 to reset objects because activation is required for this. Instead, modify the object - for example, using SE11 - so that it is identical with the original object. For this purpose, use the compare option in Version Management."
you also could choose to play safe, accept the "nonexistant" Modification, and reset to original in SE95 only after you are through with SPDD and DDIC Activation and have released the SPDD TR. You'll record the resets to original in another TR then.
Reset to original is also possible only if you do have the original in the system; use menu Modifications->Display Original to verify that.
cheers
Janis

Error while modifying std. FM

You are trying to edit an SAP object that has already been changed or enhanced in the current system. This could be

Through an upgrade or the import of a Support Package, an object version that was changed by SAP has been imported. The new SAP version, however, has not yet been compared with the changed version.
System Response
The system will deny access in change mode or enhancement mode until the objects have been compared.

If the object was not changed using the Modification Assistant, but by inclusion of notes using the Note Assistant, the respective notes must be compared/adjusted. If it is not absolutely clear which note caused the object to be changed, you can use the Modification Browser SE95 to perform a search: Expand the subtree "Note Corrections" and then use the search function to search for the object name.
Then i try thorugh SPAU and SE95 in SE95 when I click on modification adjusment it system open the transaction SPAU agin , but in SPAU how to adjust it or How system will allow to do the modifcation
regards,
zafar

Hi,
I guess the object that you are trying to edit is currently locked by an OSS note. You need to check the tcode se95. Press F8 and in the subsequent screen expand all nodes. Now search for the object, it should be under an OSS note, Right Click on the note number and choose 'reset to original ' . This should hopefully solve your issue.
