Change Request Management without Transport Managment System

Hello,
we would like to use the Change Request Management but without using the Transport Managment System (TMS). Means, we do not want that transport request are created automatically, we do not want that it is possible to log on to the satellite systems via the Solution Manager and we do not want to integrate the transport track into the Solution Manager.
What effort do we have to estimate for such a change? Does anybody already use a process like this? We would be grateful for any idea or solution.
Many thanks in advance.
Jenny

Hi Jenny,
you can do this with the following activities in your custom Business Transaction (BT):
- remove un-useful actions from your action list (TA: CRMC_ACTION_CONF)
- remove the action from the actions depending on user status (TA: starting from SPRO)
- unlock the switches from your SMI Project CTS Switches (TA: SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN)
The effort, for copying a standard BT and remove the actions and testing it, is about 5 days, if you already know how to customize a ChaRM BT... last but not least if one of the standard flows is what you really need.
Please let me know if you need more details, otherwise please reward the forum points
Regards ,
Giampaolo

Change Request Management without Transport Management

Hello Change Request Management Experts!
I have understood that It is possible to take change request managment in use without transport management. So I could handle Change Request with different statuses without automatic funtions behind these statuies. We like to see how to handle changes between different roles of people and implement the functions after that.
I suppose that I should take only Change Request (approvals) and not Change Documents (execution) from Change Request Management.
Have any of you tried to do that?
Best Regards, Leena Nissilä

Hi Andy,
Thank you for your answer. I have tried to do that also but I where is still some configuration missing because I get error message in: No maintenance cycle is open for the current system. I have also tried to to that maintenance cycle but I thought that it needs CTS activation in some project.
I also like to know what is minimun configuration for change management that I could use SDAD with Service Desk.
I looking forward to you reply,
Br Leena

Change Request Flow In a Three System Landscape --- PLZ DO REPLY

Hi Experts,
I am new to SAP and have this doubt;
Suppose we have a three system landscape with DEV, QTY and PRD systems in it.
Say we create a new change request in DEV system. So to transport it to QTY we will release that request from DEV using T code se01 .
Now the request will come in QTY systems queue and we will login to the appropriate QTY client and import this request into the QTY system.
<b>No my basic doubt is, after the testing in QTY how do we move this request to PRD system ?</b>
Do we again release this request from QTY system using se01 or we need to go at the OS level in the QTY system and manually add this change request in the PRD system buffer ? ( Please send if any reference link is there)
I will really appreciate any info in this regard.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Mandeep

Hai Mandeep,
    First Thing,
    -->If you are maintaining a common transport directory,the released change
       request will be exported in that common transport directory..
    --->Now you just enter in to the server(which is Transport Domain
        Controller).
    --->In that go to Import Overview,now your QA server has one import req.
        you just click the req. and import that req..
>Now if you want to import the same req int o PRD.,Enter in to PRD
         server.Go to tcode STMS_IMPORT, In the top go to
           Extras>Other req.>add..click this and add that particular
         req.that you want to import in to PRD server..
    --->select that req and import that req...
Thanks & Regards,

Change request btw 2 different BW systems version.

Hi all,
can I export a change request between an development BW 3.5 system and other production system BW 7.0?
The system don't actually have an RFC connection and the change requests have been made like local ($TMP).
Thank U for answers.
FP

Hi,
Are you talking about local transport requests ? If so these cannot be transported. For the request to be transportable the settings have to be done in TMS. Only then transportable requests have to be created.
Also for transportation, we dont need to have RFC connectivity between the systems, but the correct landscape has to be set up.

How to notify (email) Change Manager when new Change Request is created

Hi there, I am battling to generate an email when a developer creates a Change Request directly in the SolMan system. When he creates a new Change Request via CRMD_ORDER by filling in the Sold-to-Party, Change Manager, iBase etc., the message is automatically in 'To Be Approved'. I want to notify the Change Man ager as soon as a new Change Request has been submitted, but when I check the Actions tab in the message, no email action is listed or executed. I have edited SLFN0001_STANDARD... in SPPFCADM with conditions set. How can I create a email notification for the Change Manager as soon as a Change Request is in To Be Approved status?

Hi,
Create a action definition with the following information:
Processing when saving.
No restriction.
Check Schedule Automatically.
Check Partner-Dependent.
Select Partner Function for Change Manager.
Determination Using Conditions that Can be Transported.
Then you have to create an Start Condition such as; userstatus = to be approved.
No scheduled condition is needed.

Change Request without development

Is there a way to process a Change Request without actually going through development? We have a situation where some development work will actually be done in another system not linked to Solution Manager, but yet we would like to be able to manage the change request for those changes in Solution Manager. (The idea being that all change requests will be managed in the one Solution Manager system.) As our current system is setup right now, we cannot get past the status of "In Development" without actually making any development changes.
Are there any suggestions on how to by-pass this?

Hi Rita,
actually i have the same problem and i think about how to connect non-sap-systems to the change request in sap solution manger.
How did you connect theses systems to the solution manager? What did you do in transaction smsy?
Did you create a project and a maintenance cycle for the change requests of your non-sap-system?
Is therer a possibility to report theses change requests?
Thanks in advance,
Jens

Returncode of Transporting a change request

Dear developers,
do you know how to check the returncode when transporting a change request to test or productive system.
In my case I have the special problem that change requests will be transported in an async way so that the developer could not check in the SAP solution manager whether the transport is error free or canceled with an error.
Is there a way to switch the transport management in the solution manager to a synchronous mode?
Best regards,
Jens

Hi Ganesh,
Can I ask something about inactive object here?
I applied notes with SNOTE. But all objects are inactive.
When I activete them, The system requires accesskey.
How could this happen? And any solution for this?
I can't deapply the notes any more. coz it's bug fix for SNOTE.
If I do this, the system will be inconsistent, this happened beffore
Thanks

Transporting change request's

Hi,
a developer has changed a include. Also he has saved the changes in a change request (e.g. XA1817). Few days later I have also changed some lines on the same source code as my colleague and I have saved it on another change request (XA1819).
Now what happens if I transport my change request (XA1819) before transporting the change request from my colleague (XA1819) in productive system?
Thanks
Michael

If the change request was not released, the system should not have allowed you to change the object without putting a change request underneath the request of the other users. Check your colleagues transport request, your request should be apart of it. Then can be released and the changes will move under one transport.
If you see the same object under two different transport requests which are both not released and not tied to each other, then you have a real problem.
I assume that you transport request is tied to your colleagues, check SE10.

Solution manager- Transport management

Dear Experts,
I working at a client place who is planning to impliment SAP Solution manager for transport management, can some one please point me to the right documentation related to transport management in solution manager.
Any presale presentations would be really helpful.
Thanks for your time.
-Amit.

Hi,
For presales oriented presentation on transport management in conjunction with Solution Manager, this is the topic on Change request management (CHARM); please kindly proceed to the site
service.sap.com/rkt-solman -> SAP Solution Manager 7.0 -> Presales & IT Managers
There are two sub topics within, the 2 are
SAP Solution Manager - The SAP Application Management Solution

STMS_QA - allow transport of change requests

Hi,
we have configured the quality assurance tool (TMS). Now the users must - allow - the transport of change requests into the productive SAP-system via
transaction STMS_QA.
If we transport objects via "transport of copies" (from another SAP-system) the QA doesnt work. The users can avoid the QA-System.
Does anyone know how I could define the transport routes to avoid this situation?
Thanks
Michael

put the Objects in this ( from another system )<b> "transport of copies"</b> request and give the TARGET System name .
It is simple process , if u are doing first time do it carefully .
after doing the process check the TARGET system.

Handling unit mangement without Warehouse management

Hello,
We are working on a scenario,wherein we are planning to use handling unit management without warehouse management.Does HU management and WM go hand in hand?
Do you foresee any inconsistencies if HU management is implemented without WM?
What does SAP recommend?
Thanks,
Pankaj

Hello,
WM and HU functionality are independent solutions. WM and HU could be implemented based on your business scenarios. It is pretty common to have WM and HU solutions for the business.
It will be sort of difficult to answer about inconsistency in HU solution without WM. Based on what process you define and what are the intricacies involved you may or may not have true inconsistencies.
You could refer to the SAP best practices help library and see if for your business scenario SAP has a solution and that way you could best define an integrated solution.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Local change requests

Dear All,
One of transport request has ersides at
302-> Workbench -> Local change requests . --> When I release the Transport
request its didnot create a data and cofiles under /usr/sap/tans folder.
At the same time Transport request is resides at
302-> Workbench -> DMY Dummy->Released the request -> created the data and cofiles.
1. What is the Difference between Local change requests and DMY transport requests. ?
2. How to get the data and cofiles of transport request resides under Local change requests. is their any way to copy and create a new transport. If yes. How to copy and create a new transport request in sap R3 4.6C.?
Thanks
Malai

Dear Sharath,
Thank you for the detaild information.
I have mistakenly already released local transport request, Now status shows that released. And screen is not editable.
Hence I tried your second options.
Created the copy of "Local Change request" which I already released,
XXXK900206       XXXPADM       For Pmg Modification 20100531 Modification
     XXXPK900207   XXXPADM       Repair (Changed from Unclassified)
         Object list of request
         Comment: Object list included
         Report source
First I released the reference Transport Request. Its released fine, then When I release the transport request it prompt a small window
Object Checks
Not all objects in the request could be locked
Do you want to release them anyway?
Yes or Error or Cancel is available.
I clicked the error button. found that below message on the screen.
Object LIMU REPS ZFFF0020:
Only edit objects from development class ZPF001 in local requests
Object LIMU REPS ZFFF0320:
nly edit objects from development class ZPF001 in local requests
Object LIMU REPS ZFFF0380:
_When I click Icon which resides above error , it prompt me the below window_
Only edit objects from development class ZPN001 in local requests
Message no. TK 332
Diagnosis
Objects in development class ZPN001 cannot be edited in transportable Workbench requests in the current system FNP. The transport routes are configured such that objects from development class ZPN001 can only be edited in local Workbench requests.
System Response
The function terminates.
Procedure
You have the following options:
If you want to transport objects in development class ZPN001 into the target TS1 once only, without changing the configuration of the transport routes, then create a transport of copies in the extended view of the Transport Organizer (Transaction SE01). Go to the request overview and choose Request/task -> Object list -> Include objects to include your objects in this transport of copies.
If you would like objects in development class ZPN001 to be transported generally into the target system TS1, contact your transport administrator. In this case, the configuration of the transport routes must be corrected in the Transport Management System (TMS). For details, see the documentation on the Transport Management System.
PLease let me know how to procedd?.
Thanks
Malai

ChaRM without transport

We'd like to implement ChaRM without transport management yet. But we still need to create transport requests from the UC, so we do need to create a maintenance cycle. Or is there a way to create UCs with transport requests without project and maintenance cycle?
However, upon creation of MC full configuration of the TMS is required! All transports to QAS and PRD are going to be done manually. Do we still need to configure the transport routes?

So, I need to create two consolidation routes for the two layers from DEV to QAS and one delivery route from QAS to PRD ADDITIONALY to the already existing transport routes and this won't be a problem for the existing configuration?
> "Create the consolidation transport routes to SMM:200, transport route must be CLIENT SPECIFIC for the use in Charm scenario, this is real important!"
If I change the transport strategy of the three systems to "client specific", won't this require change of ALL other transport routes that have already been defined for those systems?
> "RFC connections from Solution Manager to DEV, QUA and PRD system, donu2019t forget to create also SM_..._TMW connection to all satellites DEV, QUA and PRD, to clients with customizing, test and production roles, in our example, we will create the RFC connection to 100, 200 and 300. Also to client 000 of all the involved systems, DEV, QUA and PRD systems in our example."
Does this mean I have to have an user in all three systems including in all three 000-clients?

Change request released & but not visible

Hi kaushal & all,
Customizing change request is released from development system & data file & co-files are not generated which inturn i can't manage to
see the request in queue.Also log is not visible for the released request.

Hi,
Customizing change request is released from development system & data file & co-files are not generated
For the above reason only two possibilities if STMS configuration is proper.
- Request is local request
- No target system is define in released request.
in your development system run se01 -> in display tab enter request -> press enter.
double click on request -> select properties tab -> make sure target system indicate your QAS system.
regards,
kaushal
