BI 4.1 Version Management - Change copy of version name

Dear Experts
I wondered if there is a possibility to change the "get copy of version" name of a Web Intelligence report.
When there is the need of changing a report I make the changes and I click on "Checkin" to ensure that the latest version of the cms is under version control. Now often the newest report is not the report currently used by the customer because the newest version has not been tested yet for example.
Therefore it is necessary sometimes to promote an old version of this specific report. I then click on history and choose the desired revision number and finally click on "Get copy of version". This action provides a report out of version control which can then be promoted accross the systems. The problem now is that the filename ends with a string containing something like "<reportname>(Copy of Version 2 @ 2014/06/11 11:41:24)".
Is it possible to change this string which is beeing automatically added to the filename? For example to "<reportname>_<revisionnumber>". Or even better: Are there any other ideas to handle the version management in interaction with promotion management?
Thank you
Lars

At this time you cannot change the name automatically. You can suggest an idea in idea place.

HT1351 I manage my music and playlists on my iphone so when I plug my phone into itunes on the computer, I'd like my phone version to change my itunes version. Is this possible or is it always the computer version changing the phone version?

Version management- the 'I' type (version created by import)

Hi,
We are in the midst of upgrade. I noticed that after the system copy, some program screens are missing in the new system. A check on the program version in the old system shows this:
Version Cat Fla SAP Rel. Arch Request    Project
Version(s) in the development database:
activ          X 700
Version(s) in the version database:
00002 I          700       UPGRADE700
00001 S          40B       D01K905538
We are thinking to do a transport to the new system to resolve the missing screens problem. However, there is no way I can navigate to the transport request created with UPGRADE700. Does anyone know how is this being created? It has version type 'I' which means is a version created by import?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Yes, you need to import the screen once again separately. Regarding the version Mgmt Transport indicators:
'I' --> Imported Version
'S' --> System Request (Before an import)
'U' --> User Request
Thanks,

You make the settings here for activating the version management:

Now define the relevent fields which shd go under version change:
SPRO --> MM --> Purchasing --> Version management --> Version relevent fields of PR's
If you wanna set up change displays and its output, then make settings here:
SPRO --> MM --> Purchasing --> Version management --> Set up change displays...
NOTE: You can only release this PR fully if you tick the version completed indicator in the PR document...
Similrly you can activate for Purchase order

Change user's short name?

Hi and thank you in advance for any assistance you may give.
I am administering a group of computers for an office of about 20 architects. There is an XServe running 10.5.8 server. One user, when her server account was set up years ago had her name misspelled (Katie instead of Katy) on her server account. This has caused a few problems.
In an attempt to resolve them I went into the Workgroup Manager, changed her account's name and added a short name which included the correct spelling. The services she accesses are file sharing and calendar, she is running 10.7.4 on an iMac.
iCal, unfortunately, when I set her account to use the new short name, does not work and gives a 403 error. Setting the account to the previous short name works fine.
I do not seem to be able to delete the old incorrect short name from her profile on the server. Is there a way to do this, and will this allow the new short name to work in iCal? Will it cause other issues?
Any replies much appreciated.

Hi baobhanjex!
Here is a direct link that usually works, to the utility ChangeShortName by Dan Frakes.
Read all of the instructions carefully, and proceed cautiously, as an improper change can result in unwanted results.
Such as;
Return to Default Desktop, Apparent "Loss" of Home Directory
Mac OS X 10.3 Help: My home folder and desktop are different than before
Also, here is a KB Article on How to change user short name or home directory name.

Internal lock version management : Unable to copy objects

Hi ALL
We need help with this particular problem we are facing with our ID objects....
I am unable to copy my communication channels which i was able to do it earlier without any problem...just to make it easy while developing new object...we used to make a copy and edit...instead of creating new scratch.
However, now we are facing a problem once we try activating any copied object, here is the error message we are getting...
"Version management was unable to execute the last action because a temporary internal lock has been set. Repeat the action "
This is not a user lock....we checked that, please do let us know how we can fix this ...so that we may be able to copy and activate copied object without the above error.
Your help is greatly appreciated!!
Thank you,
Partrick

Hi
Its Weird but it can happen if you copy object whose previous version is still not activated. I still think you must check with all the change lists. or bring all to PISUPER and activate them.
Oops then i think it got locked for all. Refresh the cache and even soft restart for J2EE.
I think you copy a lot
Thanks

I am unable to retain my Settings Manager changes for Adobe Flash version 9.0.124.0

Hi there:)
Every time I log out from the Adobe online Settings Manager
and then check the settings at a later stage the changes that I
made earlier have not been retained?
Has anyone else experienced a similar problem and if so is
there a solution?
My version of Adobe Flash is 9.0.124.0. Before installing
this version I uninstalled the old version using the latest version
of the Adobe uninstaller ( after 8/4/08 ).
Any help or advice will be much appreciated.....

Dear all!
May I ask you for some help here?
I do not have any problems with the player so far, but can
not change the settings online, because there is no picture of the
settings manager. Only a download button to download flash player
once again.
What is wrong with my installation? I just don't know.
I am using Windows Vista basic and Mozilla Firefox 3.0 or IE
7.0.
My internet provider is T-Mobile with a wireless connection
called Web 'n' Walk box home.
Wherever I go online instead of my home's laptop I will find
the setting manager alright!
Help is very appreciated.

Version Management for PO(Set up Change Displays)

Hi All,
We have Version Mgt. functionality for POs.
Pls tell me what is the use of 'Category' field in 'Set up Change Displays' in Version Management.
The path is IMG>MM>Purchasing>Version Mgt.>Set up Change Displays
Appreciate if you do not provide the explanation which comes by pressing F1. Jst let know how we use this field in this functionality and how.
Thanks in advance.
Regards

Dear ,
The sole purpose of the field Category i.e Data output category is reporting ,Which means when you check the report of Display Changes for a version in PO it will show you all the fields (as per SAP all fields are of same importance ) but if you want to impose importance to those fields according to your need then you assign a category and later you can sort the list based on this category
Now how it works lets take an example
Suppose you create a PO take print out and then changed few data in PO so new version triggers -> Mark this version as completed and saved the PO
Now after that your boss or any one want to see what changes you have made for that PO so he select version 1 in header and click on Display changes
Field........................................old value.......New value.......Changed by......Changed On....Category
1> Price ................................100 EUR.......120 EUR...........user1234..........18.02.12................A
2> Quantity .............................60 EA.............65 EA...........user1234..........18.02.12................A
3> Material short text ............Iron ore-1....Iron ore-2..........user1234..........18.02.12................B
4> Requisitioner ....................User4.......... User 5.............user1234..........18.02.12................B
5> Req. tracking no...............need543.......need579...........user1234..........18.02.12................C
6>   Taxcode ...........................V1..................V2...............user1234..........18.02.12................C
{If in the standard output format category field is missing you can bring that by changing the layout }
Now out of these 6 field you assigned Price and Quantity as category A (say most important)
Material short text and Requisitioner as category B (Medium importance)
Req. tracking no. and   Tax code as category C      ( Less importance)
So it just an additional information for you to categorized and easily identify important fields among many other changed fields.
Now I sincerely hope it clarifies you doubt

Version Management for SD

Hello All,
I need to maintain Version Management for SD. My client's requirement is whenever they change Quotation or Sales order they get version number.
E.G
Quotation Created -
> 10
Change Quotation -
> 10.1
Change quotation again -
> 10.2
just to remember the purpose of changing Quotation . Is it possible to do in SAP SD.
Regards
SD1000

Query 1. Working with quotation version
Generally, version for sales order is used for SAP Mill Products.
So to have that functionality for your quotation.
Configuration
- Copy Standard sales doc type for VSH1 for sales version doc to create version doc for Quote, say, ZVQT.
- and all coresponding configuration which is requiored for introducing a new sales doc like allowing sales doc for desired sales area, number range, Item catergory determination similar to that of Quotation item category determination, pricing, copying control from QT to ZVQT and vice versa.
- Configure Sales Order Versions
To do this follow following path in SPRO
IMG - SD - Sales - Sales Doc - Sales Order Version - Configure Sales Order Versions
Here, you assign Sales Doc QT to the version sales Doc ZVQT
Process
1. In sales order (VA02), in menubar go to Edit - Additional Functions - Version Data - Transfer
2. This will create a new document for ZVQT as a new version with reference to our original Quotation (QT) with item data.
3. We can make changes in our version document (ZVQT).
4. Once we confirm the changes, we can copy the version to our original Quotation.
5. Further multiple verisions of the quotation can be created and compare the same.
Query 2. Bill of Material - LUMF
I hope your item cat determination for LUMK is
Sales Order
- Item Cat Group
- Higher Item Cat
- Def Item Cat
OR
LUMF
TAP
OR
LUMF
TAP
TAN
So, if you are using TAP as higher Item Cat.
Then you need not worry on pricing at the higher level,
As, Item Cat TAP is not relevant for pricing.
Thus, that item has Statistical relevance.

Version Management for BW queries?

Hi,
Is version management available for queries in BW?
Like an ABAP program, different versions can be generated, allowing an older version to be retrieved and overwrites current version, for the case where heavy changes applied but has to be reverted. And also the function of comparing versions to easily identifying the differences.
Thanks.

There is no version management for queries built into BW. Of course, you can generate new versions of queries each time you change them by doing a "Save As...", but we have found that this is counterproductive for several reasons, including:
1) Extra Query Maintenance - Leads to multiple copies of a query, and eventually confusion over which one(s) are supposed to be used and which one(s) are "obsolete".
2) User Favorites Maintenance - Any favorites that have been created by users will have to be recreated from scratch using the new query and/or workbook.
There are probably others...
Anyway, #2 is the one that finally convinced us to stop creating new versions of queries. Instead, we do considerable testing of any changes on our Dev and QA systems before finally replacing the Prod copy of the query. Of course, "backing out" changes is still a pain this way, but at least you have the original query on Prod to go by. For really major changes, we will also generate "Before" and "After" XLS files with results, both to prove that we are getting the expected results and to serve as a way to go back if the Prod query has been updated before a problem is discovered.
Hope this helps...
Bob
