CHARM - Refresh and Transport Log

Hi
We have configured charm if i refresh Dev or Qas system what will happen to the transport change log created by Charm.
is there any procedure to save the transport log(out side the system) or to take back up of the data before refreshing the systems.
Thanks
Nanda.

Hi Nanda,
the transport logs are neither stored in Solution Manager nor in the database of the refreshed system. They are stored in the transport file system /usr/sap/trans/log. So a system refresh should not have any impact to ChaRM regarding the transport logs. As Solution Manager is only controlling tp in satellite systems, there is no big difference in a system copy with Change request management and without (as long as you don't overwrite the transport domain controller).
So you can follow the same procedure as you did before activating ChaRM. Just make sure, that all RFCs between Solution Manager and Satellite system still work and user and roles in the satellite system after the refresh are being restored (but this you should always do even without ChaRM).
If you mean the history of change documents in Solution Manager: They are not affected by the system copy.

Transport Form and Transport Log

Hi Friends,
Does anybody have a sample of a transport form and/or transport log you could share?
Thanks.

You can manage transport requests using transaction <b>SE10</b>....What exactly do you need???

ChaRM: link between ChaRM message and Transport Request

We use the action 'Release Transport Requests' in the task list of the
Maintenance Cycle to release all assigned Transport Requests. In the
pop-up window that appears we see all Transport Request numbers and the
transport description.
Is there a possibility to add an extra column in this pop-up screen, to
see the link between the Correction number and the Transport Request?

I agree on this one.
However, a naming convention for OSS notes and FRICE is implemented over here.
That's why it would be useful to have an additional column.
The link is somewhere in SAP, because when you go to the tab Project Structure in TA /TMWFLOW/PROJ for the selected Maintenance Cycle, you see which Transport Requests are assigned to which ChaRM msg.

Charm connectivity and transport

I have a Solution manager 7.01 Ehp1 I wanted to connect the ECC system with Solution manager to move the transports between Dev -- QA -- PRD after Approval.
Can anybody update on how is this connectivity done and if we do this connectivity then can we still moved the transport in a usual manner fron Dev- QA - Prd.
Thanks

Hello Himanshu,
The relevant information is in the SPRO documentation of the ChaRM activities, there is a part for the TMS configuration relevant to ChaRM:
SAP Solution Manager Implementation Guide
-> SAP Solution Manager
-> Basic Settings
   -> Scenario-Specific Settings
    -> Change Request Management
The RFCs from the Solution Manager to the clients of the target systems are created from transaction SMSY, after the systems and clients have been defined. This information you can also find in the SPRO:
SAP Solution Manager Implementation Guide
-> SAP Solution Manager
-> Basic Settings
   -> System Landscape
A summary of all this can also be found at SDN blog /people/dolores.correa/blog/2008/07/26/first-steps-to-work-with-change-request-management-scenario

How to View Transport Log in DEV SAP Portal System

Hi All,
Kindly help me by giving me the path of where is the Import, Export and Transport Log maintained in SAP Portal.
And is it posible to view the Log of other systems from DEV system? If yes then how.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Disha.

Hi,
Please navigate to usr/sap/trans/CMS/log to view logs.
Alternatively in the CMS, you can click on "Go to History" which will display all previous transports. You can see the details from there.
Thanks

Why can't I log in to my iTunes account (iPod Touch)? Whenever I put in the password it refreshes and keeps prompting me - it doesn't say it is incorrect, it just refreshes it.

I just bought an iTunes card and was eager to redeem it. My iPod prompted me to log in as usual, but when I put in the correct password it just kept prompting me again. I've tried putting in my password to log in but it won't allow me to get into my account, rather it just refreshes and prompts me, and I've been doing this about ten times before I gave up. My internet connection is fine and all else is running smoothly.
And no, it isn't the incorrect password. I have tried putting in an alternative password to check, before refreshing it said it was incorrect.
With the correct password it'll just keep prompting me over and over so I cannot get in. This is really annoying and I don't know what to do as this hasn't happened before.
If anyone knows what is going on please inform me.
(Also: I cannot sync my iPod into any computers at the moment. I lost the previous computer and if I synced it with the new one I would lose everything on it, and some information on there is dear to me such as photos and videos. That is if I had a choice - computers with iTunes don't seem to recognise it as an iPod device, rather a camera which I can't take anything off of.
This is another problem on its own, though.)

Have you tried going to Settings>iTunes and App Stores (or just Store) and signing out and then signing in again?

No administration authorization in Change and Transport System in CHARM

Hi guys,
I am currently working for CHARM implementation for ECC 6.0
now my problem i created an urgent correction and i released the transport request successfully, but when i try to execute the Pass correction test action it is saying that No import into test system has taken place yet. then i went to task plan and checked there in quality system it is saying No administration authorization in Change and Transport System.
So i asked my basis team to assign the S_TMW_IMPORT profile to user TSADM in 000 client of quality system and additinally our basis team has assigned S_CTS_ADMI. authorization object to TSADM user ID in 000 client of quality system. But SAP has suggested to assign S_CTS_IMPALL and S_CTS_IMPSGL authorization profile to S_CTS_ADMI.
But the problem is S_CTS_IMPALL and S_CTS_IMPSGL authorization profile is not available in 000 client of quality system.
Kindly give your valuable inputs as early as possible. the solution provided by anybody will be rewarded with points.
Thanks&Regards
Raju

can you try assigning the below profiles to that ID.
S_TMW_OPERA
Operator in CTS (All Transport Authorizations)
S_CTS_ALL
Transport system: All authorizations
S_CTS_DEVELO
WBO: Profile for developers in P systems (incl. tasks)
I too have checked and i did not come across the profiles nor objects S_CTS_IMPALL and S_CTS_IMPSGL .
Where did u get the message that they have to be imported ?
Hope it helps.
Award points for the replies that are helpful to you.

ChaRM with several transport layers

Hi!
We would like to use Solman ChaRM approach.
According to SPRO-documentation ChaRM only supports consolidation routes from standard transport layer.
We have besides the standard transport layer other transport layer and have the following question
1)What will happen when the developer try to change and import into QAS system object assigning to none-standard transport layer?
1a) ChaRM does not allow to change this object and the appropriate pop up window comes up
1b) ChaRM integrate this transport layer as standard transport layer
Any helpful information will be very appreciated
Thank you very much!
regards
Thom

Hello Thom,
I think, your question is almost independent from CHaRM. This is handled by the transport management system (TMS). If your developer changes the object assignment to a transport layer, and there is a transport track for this layer to the (same) QAS it should work. But if this QAS is not configured in CHaRM as a target system (in SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN), SolMan will probably raise an error message.
Also if the transport layer assignment / dev package not valid for this transport track, you will not able to release the transport -> SolMan is just using TMS mechanism and this will bring up an error message in CRMD_ORDER.
Unfortunately you can't see the transport logs in CRMD_ORDER directly, so the answer to 1a) is: In case of trouble releasing the transport you will get an error, but not the full error message.
1b) ChaRM cannot change a transport layer to a standard transport layer, this must be done using STMS on the transport daimn controller.
Regards,
Holger

Problem with display of transport logs

Hello,
The transport logs on one of our systems are not displayed from the SAP level. The logs are available in the trans directory with the logged information. Logs for other transport requests on the same day from the same user are displayed but certian logs are not displayed.
I go into import history of a certian system and click on the display log button. In the log overview screen ntothing is displayed.
any suggestions wud be appreciated !
regards.

Date of the log is 12/06/09 - there were many imports on this day and logs for all are available. We are unable to view the logs for around 10 imports. There is no such error message, once u highlight the change request in import history and click on "logs", the next screen has text "log display for <CR number>" and below this nithing is shown. The logs at OS level are readable using the unix "view" command.

How to get truck no and transporter name from header.text(vf03) to webi rep

Hi
making a stock received details bill wise with webi (bo 3.1)
so require a truck no and transporter name along with consignor detail and bill wise detail.
picking data from vbrk and vbrp tables.
pls assist in this
Thanks and Regards

Thanks M
Yes It is Sales and Distribution process and we are using ODBC Connectivity through database client for the connection parameter in the Universe designed to the R/3 ECC.
So we dont have
a) DS
b) BW
c) Data Connector
So Universe is basically on the relational Data
base where by linking VBRK,VBRP and various Master tables.
(OLTP level universe)
So the quesion remain as it is bcos we cant access functional module READ_TEXT in the R/3
Pls suggest for the following Alternatives
a)Using Crystal Reports
b)Use BW (Currently it is not there,but soon be Implemented)
What do you think?
Bcos we dont want to refresh z table which could be developed from given functional module before running our report.

Object locked after Release and Transport to QAS/PRD

During an attempted recovery of our DEV system, a tranport request that had been previously released and transported to QAS/PRD was copied back into the DEV system, over-writing an open change request (and associated lock) on the program.
As a result the object shows as 'Locked' in DEV, but the lock entry is on a 'Released' transport.
I have reviewed tables E070 and E071, and as expected the entries for the program show that the transport was released.
Table TLOCK contains an entry for the program indicating that it is locked under the change request described above, that has already be released.
I logged a message with SAP, and was directed to create a new change request and assign the program to that request. While this does work, and allows me to make corrections and transport them, it does not assign a lock to the new transport, and does not clear the existing lock.
The other comment in the message was that once a transport is released, the only other option is to 'hack the tables', but I am not sure I am ready to go that route.
Has anyone ever encountered this situation, and if so, do you have any situations as to how to clear the lock entry ?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Selection Screen seems not to be transported, all transport log OK

hi,
our ABAP build own Z-program in SDV. After that, they transport the program to QA client using STMS and also to Production Client using the same method. All the transport log is error-free.
The problem occurs in PRD, when all selection screen declared on SE38 didn't appear when program is executed. But, when this program is executed in DEV client or QA client, all selection screen appear
correctly as declared in SE38.
In some case, all selection screen is appears correctly if the program is run on some of our application server, but didn't appear on the other application server.
is there something we missed ? or there is a problem in our STMS, or SE38 ?
thank you

I guess if the latest request is in the PRD, it takes along with it the changes related to all previous requests.
If the object is in Request R1 and R1 is released but not transported.
Now the object is again edited and saved in R2.
R2 is transported. The changes done in R1 although its not sent to PRD, will come in the request R2.
But just check if all the previous versions are in PRD.
There could be a unrectified problem sometimes which may appear.
If you are sure all is fine, just create a Transport of Copies of the request and retransport it.
Also dont forget to check the syntax and consistency of the request.
It had happened with me that I had transoported the request with inactive object to PRD and I was in big trouble
good luck

Viewing Transport Log Errors in ECC

Dear SRM Experts,
System Info : ECC 6.0. and SRM 5.0
We moved transports from Dev to QA and some of the transports failed with Return codes of 8 and 12.
Where do we look up the transport errors that occured.
Points will be rewarded for answers.
Thanks in advance,
Bobby.

Yann,
Thank you very much for your reply.
I went to SE10 and selected my released order and
clicked on the transport logs and drilled down. But I am not able to find the RC=8 and
RC=12 errors. The outer level for all the lines has a status of successfully completed(0).
Please let me know if I am missing any steps.
Thanks again,
Bobby.

Missed get delta once option in dtp and transported to prod

hi all
we have transported DTP for our infocube 0wbs_c11 into production.
This infocube 0wbs_c11 is loaded from 4 datasources of which one datasource supports delta and rest donot.
so in process chains we are using the option for delete overlapping requests. for all the 3 datasources which doesnot support delta.
But for one of these 3 datasources we have transported DTP without ticking GET DELTA ONCE OPTION AND loaded to infocube.
now we should tick the get delta once option and transport it to production, where we already ran this dtp once.
Since we cannot enable the get delta once option enabled in dtp after the first dtp run
my question is should i delete the request from infocube and transport the dtp transport request (to prod )with getdelta once option ticked and run the dtp again will it work.
or do i need to delete the request as well as dtp from prod and then transport the new request with delta once option ticked.
regards
krishna

based on the above link which says after activating transformations using the program rsdg_trfn_activate if we run process chain the dtp's get activated by itself
i have done a trial based on the above point
i went to dtp execute tab and press execute ,and when it asks me for furthur process
YES NO CANCEL
I have cancelled the execution of dtp.
and now when i refresh the tree the dtp is seen active .
i followe the same for all.
regards
