Approvals for transporting XI objects

Does anyone have documentation on how your companies are handling approvals for transporting XI objects? I need to prepare a change management document that will be SOX compliant and wanted to know how everyone else is handling approvals? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
LeAnne Fulton

I know Satish has answered your question, but just to add some more info to it , have a look at this
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a8/5e56006c17e748a68bb3843ed5aab8/content.htm
From above link :
Prerequisites
During the export, a packaged binary file is created in a directory defined on the repository server (or directory server). To import this file to another Integration Repository (or Integration Directory), you must manually copy it to an import directory (see below). You require the appropriate authorizations to be able to access directories on the SAP Web Application Server.

Correct order for transporting BEx objects

Hello-
I have to transport following objects. They are all in separate transports. Can you tell me the correct order?
Variables.
User exit variables
Restricted key figures
Calculate key figures
Structures
Queries
Query views
Workbooks
Web templates
Thanks in advance.

can i start with cross questioning..
hw did u collect all these objects seperately in different requests.
as far as i know if u know u r transporting workbook and webtemplate, in same request collect all the objects
so all variables used within, all CKF,RKF formulaes, variables, user exits etc within the workbook or webtemplate
u can transport within same request
so u dnt hv to worry about elements used within and u jst hv to transport all together within same request
if tht doesnt solve
try to remove objects from request
login to se10
go to ur request
delet it and unlock it
and try to create new reqest and cllect all elements within 1 request and transport it.
let us know

Table for transport request objects

Hi,
I need to copy the objects present in the transport request(Request/Modified) to any other transport request.
Can any body tell me the table that stores the information regarding transport request.
Pooja

For your requirement you can do with menu bar options from the SE09 transaction,
Don't go for suggested table level changes,
Never in SAP system do any SAP table level change, you are invalidating your Service licence agreement in doing so. If any inconsistencies arise in production because of such recklessness then SAP will simply blame you. You can do as many changes in a Z table created by you but never in SAP tables.
Hope you understand what I meant!

How to transport the object in XI?

Hi friends,
Anybody can give me the idea or any document for transporting the objects in XI from Development system to Quality system.As per my knowledge we can transport using File and CMS, but i don't have clear idea. Anybody explain me clearly or provide me any document?

Hi,
There are two ways to Transport XI objects-
1) File Import/Export
2) CMS
CMS is somewhat standard way to do. Becuase you can track the objects. But for this you need to install the CMS separately.
just go thru these quick links-

Transporting an Object from Development to quality and then to Production

Hello SAP Friends
I want to know the step by step navigation for Transporting an Object from Development to Quality and from there to production..
Please give some detailed Navigation...

Hi Kiran,
use transport connection to collect the objects to request, rsa1->transprot connection.
use infocube as starting point to collect objects, left side choose 'object type', middle frame choose 'infocube' expand 'select objects', locate/search your infocube' and 'transfer', it will go to right side.
in right up, there are buttons, click 'mode' and choose manual, and grouping 'only necessary objects', and execute, this will collect infocube and required objects like infoobjects, infoarea, etc.
after that change grouping 'in dataflow before' and execute, this will collect update rules, ods, infosource, transfer rules, datasource assigned etc.
remember to assign source system, click yellow box with X icon and mark the source system.
after that use grouping 'in dataflow afterwards' to collect query, web template, role etc.
take a look transport docs

How we transport developed objects from development server to qualityserver

Hi All,
pls send me navigational steps for transporting the objects.

Hi,
In transport connection in RSA1, you can capture the objects in various transport request's. Once you capture all the necessary objects, you can release these requests in SE09.
The sequence and logical grouping of the objects to be captured as follow...
Sequence No Objects in Request
1 Package(DEVC), InfoArea(AREA), Application Component(APCO)
2 Keyfigure Catalog(IOBC), Keyfigures(IOBJ), Units(IOBJ)
3 Characteristic Catalog(IOBC), Characteristic Infoobjects(IOBJ)
4 Infosources (ISCS, ISTD, ISMP, ISTS, ISFS, ROUT) and Generic Data Sources(DataSource Active Version(OSOA), ISMP, ISTS,DataSource Replica( ISFS) and Tables(TABL))
5 Infoproviders(ODS(ODSO), Cube(CUBE), Infoset(ISET))
6 Update Rules(UPDR, ROUT)
7 Infopackages(ISIP)
8 Queries(ELEM)
9 Webtemplates(TMPL, BLTM, BPTM)

Yogesh

Multiple Transports for the Same Object.

I have ABAP program 123 and I make a change, create transport A and release the transport. I do not request transport A go to production.
I then modify ABAP program 123 again, create transport B and release the transport. I do not request transport B go to production.
Now I request transport A go to production.
Can someone explain to me why the changes in transport B are included when transport A is moved to production?
I thought each transport would be at its own change level.
Thank-you.

I can guarantee all of you that when Transport A was moved, it contained changes that were made in Transport B.
Surely you understand that Thomas is correct and that there's a logical reason, not related to transport layer configuration, for the issue? You CAN have multiple transports open for the same object without a lock by forcing it but check the dates as already suggested...

Objects required for transport operations

Hello,
I am preparing to upgrade and migrate databases from 10g on AIX to 12c on OEL6. I found a great doc that details the use of Transportable Tablespaces for metadata movement and RMAN for the migration of the datafiles from big endian to little endian. The doc is 371556.1. The only thing that is unclear to me in that doc is bullet 2 in the Goal section. It states:
2.- Import objects required for transport operations from the source database into the destination database.
I'm not quite sure to which objects this is referring. It sounds like there are objects that are dependencies for transport operations, but again, not sure what those objects might be or what the operations are (e.g. using exp or data pump in tablespace mode?)
Or perhaps it's referring to objects that aren't typically transportable/exported in tablespace mode, such as synonyms?
With the exception of that one bullet point, the doc makes perfect sense. If anyone has any clarification on this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Jon

It looks like the link in my original post isn't working. The document is on MOS and is titled "How to Migrate to different Endian Platform Using Transportable Tablespaces With RMAN (Doc ID 371556.1)"

Sequence of collecting objects for transport in BI

I am making a display attribute to navigational attribute, kindly let me know the sequence of collecting objects for transport request.
i need to check in infocube as well in multi provider.
please let me know
thanks,
Venkat

Hi,
Make sure the Infoobjects(in which you are changing it from Display attirube to Nav attribute) and collect the other things in a seperate request (Infoproviders, the deativated transformations and the DTP followed by Queries). Release the request to QA/Prd in a sequence(Infoobject request first and the iinfoprovider request as followed by the successful movement of the first one.
The STMS automatically take cares the sequence of trasnporting the objects one by one to the destination system.

Collecting Objects for Transport

Hi,
I have to transport a new cube, few of the info-objects for this cube are already active in QA. Also the application component and infoarea are active in QA. what all should I collect for transport, can someone provide me steps. After going to Transport Connection in RSA1 Ive selected the cube, now it shows me the list containing application component, info area, info objects.. what should I do next.
Thank you,
Sam

Use Option of Only Necessary Objects - Execute - Install
Make sure you give right Package.

Bi content objects collection for transport

Hi Experts,
may i know how can i colloect the technical contnet objects for transport?
basically i already transport a technical content content request to quality, after transporting i got the logs as some of the technical content objects have not been activated in quality, but i thougt i can directly activate the content objects by using the program RSDG_IOBJ_ACTIVATE and remaing programs for cubes,aggregates,data sources and all in quality sytem, but client dont want the mannuall activation in qulaity system, they are askig again i have to transport the active(which are the objects not in active version in quality) version from EST to ESQ and then re-import my main transport.
so now again i have to activate the objects in develpment, may i know if i activate the program RSDG_IOBJ_ACTIVATE in se38 and transport the request to quality is it ok (here have to create a new request for this?) here in asingle request can i activate all objects which are not activated (i have to go for activation to info objects, cubes, data sources, update rules,transfer structures) is there any sequence steps to collect this object, please provide me
Many Many thanks
Mrudula

Hi,
Activate all the necessary objects and collect them in a single request and check for any inconsistencies or inactive objects in the requests before transporting it to the QA or PRD in SE03.

Collection of Objects for Transporting to Test Box

Hi Experts,
I am ready to transport from BW Dev system to Testing system.Actually some of the Objects activated before for diffrent applications like FI-CO,SD and CRM and exported to testing system.Now My turn to export some of the objects to test box.
I am little bit in confusion.How do I collect the objects which I activted with my own request.I am sure I don't need to transport the Objects which already in Test box though my functional application required the same objects.If So how can I find which Objects are in Test box already or not.Is there any particular method to find which objects are not transported from Development to Testing.Please advise me.I need to finish my Transports by the tomorrow.I am running with urgency.
Thanks,
Suryam.

Hi,
Unfortunatelly for you, the best way is to collect through the transport collector in RSA1 all the objects that are needed for your solution.
Normally if you did not change anything on objects that are already transported, the system will not collect them.
But I would say that there is no added value to make a difference between stuff that were already transported and the other objects as in Dev you are aroking with them correctly....
Hope it helps
