Change Management in Solution manager 4.0

Hi,
I am trying to configure the change Management in Solution manager 4.0. I have created the project assigned the logical components,but when i go to /n/tmwflow/cmsconf its blank(no nodes to select).what could be the reason?
Regards,
Cherry

Hi Cherry,
what about your TMS configuration. Did you switched to extended transport control and modified your transport landscape to transport groups?
Please check your project with: /n/tmwflow/charmchk.  The result could be helpful for error analysis concerning wrong tms configuration.
kind regards
Rayko

  • Solution Manager Change Management Master Guide

    Hi
    We are looking into implementing Solution Manager 7.0 and have the
    following questions:
    - Can we implement change managment in Solution Manager with only one
    satellite system (i.e. Development) as the other systems are not ready
    yet (i.e. Test, QA etc.)?
    - Could you let us know where we can find the master or technical guide
    to setup change management in Solution Manager 7.0.

    Hi,
    it is possible to implement ChaRM even not all satellite systems are available yet.
    I am not sure how much functionality you will get using virtual systems but you may configure and test ChaRM using 3 different clients in your DEV system (need to adjust TMS config accordingly).
    Some useful information regarding ChaRM configuration can be found [here|/people/dolores.correa/blog/2008/07/26/first-steps-to-work-with-change-request-management-scenario]
    Since ChaRM relies on Service Desk you should also have a look at appropriate Blogs.
    Also you should follow the IMG documentation/steps in SPRO.

    Please maintain a connection from solution manager to the transport domain system . I belive this is CIA.

    Recheck the transport configurations.

  • Change Management u0096 Central Configuration u0096 Solution Manager 4

    I am working in Change Management for solution manmager 4. I have configured maintenance project.
    But I can not see ‘Project Cycle’ tab in ‘System landscape’ table of project maintenance transaction code – SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN.
    SM 4 patch level is  - ST     400     0008.
    Also I would like to know where should I configure TMS for satellite systems? (e.g. ECC system DR0-100 client?). In ECC system or in SM 4 system?
    Please suggest.
    Regards,
    Darshan

    Hi Darshan,
    you have to configure the TMS in the satellite system (Domain Controler). It is described in the IMG -> Solution Manager ->..-> scenario. spec. Settings -> change request management -> standard settings -> TMS.
    E.g. you have to establish inter domain links, client spec. transport routs (CTC=1), you have to set CTS-Project IDs mandatory for all used clients..., everything described in the IMG.

  • Minimum steps required for Change Management and Incident management

    Hello experts,
    Does anyone have a check list of the absolute minimum steps required for getting Change Management and Incident management functioning in Solution Manager.
    I just need it to function with creating changes and incidents and be able to assign them, change their status and close them.
    The purpose is to get an idea if this is something for us to use. If we then find it useable, then we will go for a full scale implementation using official guides, education etc.
    I just need an absolute minimum guide for demonstrating the functions, and if you guys have any recommendations, things we should pay special attention to or other experiences feel free to tell me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,

  • Change Management. Cannot go to the next phase ... And common questions.

    Hi dear colleagues!
    Here there are some unpleasant problems which has arisen during Change Management functions realization...
    1. After approving of Urgent Correction by so-called "Change Manager", "developer" couldn't set it status "in development" -> and begin corrections in DEV system. It outputs in status bar: "NO ACTIONS IN THE WORK LIST".
    2. How should i link some urgent correction (or simply Service Message) to a specific Maintenance Cycle?
    The same problem I cannot go to the next phase, system outputs that "No Maintenance Cycle is open for the current system".
    3. And please can u explain in a simple words: Should i always make a maintenance project for using "Change Management" functions?
    4. Can we use "Change Management" for 4.0C (vers. of satellite) systems?
    Any help and tips would really appreciate.
    Best regards,
    Vladimir

    Hi,
         For configuring change management, you will have to follow the SPRO guidelines for setting up transport routes between satellite systems.
    Well i list down the activities that you need to do. Details you can find in SPRO -- > SAP Solution Manager --> Scenario Specific Settings --> Change Request Management --> Standard Configuration --> transport management System
    1) Activate Extended transport control by setting  System Parameter CTC=1 in STMS --> Systems
    2)Create Client specific transport route between satellite systems
    3) Ensure that all the systems in the domain have the same transport group.
    4)Configure or activate Single transport Strategy in STMS --> Overview --> transport routes.
    5)Activate TMS Trusted services in STMS --> Overview --> Systems --> Goto --> transport Domain --> Management Tab page --> Security option group box.
    Besides these activities, you will have to execute the SPRO IMG Activity
    SAP Solution Manager --> Basic Settings --> SAP Solution Manager System --> Activate Integration with Change Request Management
    For activity Intigration Solution Manager make the following entry
    APPL: Change Request Management
    RFC Destination : NONE
    For activity Integration Change Request Management
    make the entries in table BCOS_CUST as g
    iven in the IMG instruction.
    Now in SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN you can activate a maintenance project for change management by going to System Landscape --> Project Cycle
    Click the check box Activate Change request Management.
    (NOTE: The above option comes only in Solution Manager 4.0, for SOLMAN 3.2 you can directly create maintenance cycle in /n/tmwflow/cmsconf --> Distribution Routes --> Project Landscape group box .)
    Now you can create a maintenance cycle by clickin on the button Create Task List in project cycle tab page.
    Navigate to task list and activate the tasklist (Maintenance Cycle) by clicking on the status button.
    Now while creating change request ensure that you are assigning the correct ibase /component of the production system in the satellite system landscape. You have to enter the ibase component of the client of the production system to whcih the client specific transport route has been made. You can find this number in transaction IB52
    Hope now u can move on with CHARM.

  • Help required in OCM-Order change management

    Hi All,
    I have to implement the Order change managment. I did few setting which are required and than i created ECR using release key. but using OCM it tells me to first make the changes in MATERIAL BOM than using transaction COCM i can make the changes in required production order.
    But my requirement is i want to change the Production BOM or Production routing directly without touching Material BOM .
    As sometime it happens only 1 or 2 Order BOM s are need to be changed only not the Material bom. So i want to track the Changes made in Order using OCM.
    What is the solution that i can change the Production Bom OR Production Routing directly using OCM and also how can i make the changes in Sales Order.
    Pls do the needful.
    Thanks
    Ravi Khurana

    Using Order Change Management (change management for production orders), it is possible to include existing procurement elements (production orders, planned orders, purchase orders) that are also affected by a change, in the change process.
    The change process in OCM is based on Initiating Objects. These initiating object records refer to changes in sales orders or in master data, which, in turn, necessitate changes to production orders.
    Thus, it is not possible to change the order directly using OCM.

  • How to integrate customer objects in CC02 / change management?

    Hello everybody,
    I want to integrate a new customer object (for customer-specific master data) into the standard change management of ECC 6.0.
    I already read that there is a BAdI, which can undo changes made with the standard change management.
    "In the BAdI ECM_UNDO Undo Changes, SAP provides separate classes as BAdI implementations for each of these objects. If you want to implement undo changes for more SAP master data and for customer-specific master data, you can use these classes as templates for your own implementations."
    But how can I integrate new objects for customer-specific master data?
    Thanks in advance,
    Lars

    Hello Lars,
    i´ve the same requirement. For a customer specific development we´ve developed our own business objects. The customer wants the change these objects with change management. You´ve already got a solution for this?

  • EM10gR2 Grid Control / Change Management Pack does not support TYPE objects

    I wonder any Oracle EM10gR2 Grid Control users, implementing Oracle Change Management Pack, have used it for the release and proper packages management.
    Issue1 - On an EM console / Web GUI the DDL comparison and synchronization is not supported at all. Implementing it @ customer it appeared that we have to install a 10g Java Client in order to use the code comparison and sync functionalities.
    Issue2 - and this is more serious - it appears that even with Java client in use, you cannot compare or sync objects related to TYPE or TYPE BODY data types. The comparison simply hangs.
    Asked help from support, they mentioned an ER from 8i and logged a new ER for 10g/11g. That is surprising especially as the doc (http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/A96679_01/toc.htm) about code comparison does not exclude the TYPE objects from the supported options.
    Any fellow DBA running to a same problem? What solutions & recommendations might you have?

    Hi Mugunthan,
    Can you provide links to any tutorial or example (screenshots) of using Setup Manager to transfer something between two environments (say Users or DFFs)?

  • Change Management configuration

    Hi Guys,
    We have solution manager 7.0 with latest support pack stack. We have a requirement of configuring service desk with change management. I have configured service desk and it is working.
    I am not bale to understand how to configure Change management and how will it works. Can you guys send me the link for configuring change management and how we will test it.
    Is service desk configuration is required for change management??
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    ChaRM is basically based on Service Desk. But if you do not want to there is no need to use Service Desk features.
    You may create Change Requests and Change Documents without Service Desk.
    Usually you get an incident via Support Message. This Support Message contains all the required information. If the problem cannot be fixed without a change in the SAP system, then you will create a Change Request from Support Message. The request will also contain most of the information from support message. The Change Manager then approves or denies the Change Request. If he approves it then a Change Document (normal correction in most cases) will be created. This normal correction is tied to a project in solution manager which contains your system landscape and (basically) controls what will happen with the transports assigned to each normal correction.
    It is possible to customize (approval) workflows by your needs.
    ChaRM configuration can be done by following the IMG path for Change Management.
    There are also some (more or less up-to-date) Web Blogs in this forum about that topic.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi Sanjana,
    There are 3 different options fro Test Management using Solution Manager. HP QC is used in the Test Management Option 2. You can also avoid HPQC if you go for Test Option 1 (CBTA, ECATT, QTP..). The third option is to use IBM Rational tools for testing. All the info you are looking for is given in this wiki http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/SM/SAP+Solution+Manager+WIKI+-+Test+Management
