Release strategy for Transport requests

Hi,
Can anybody give me the detail steps to configure release strategy for transporting requests?
we are having Dev and Prd systems.
Regards,
Vinnu.

Hello,
I hope you have configured TMS for two system landscape.
Just make the transport routes also, make DEV system as a Domain Controler.
Then transport requests will automatically come in to the request queue.
Using tx stms_import , import those request sequentially !!
Note: Points always encourage me to reply !!

One Transport request objects copy into new transport request

Dear Experts,
I created a transport request under which i saved my objects. <b>Now i need to copy old request objects into new request or split that transport request into number of new transport requests.</b> First of all It is possible or not , if it is possible please tell me the solution how to do.
Regards,
Krishna

Hello Krishna
You can
(1) add object lists of already released requests ("old" requests) to you current request (still changeable)
(2) merge changeable transport requests together
(3) split a changeable request into several requests
Whereas (1) and (2) are supported by standard functions of the SAP system (3) is a manual task involving the following steps:
a.) Create a new request
b.) Copy required transport entries (e.g. R3TR TABL ZMYTABLE) from one request to the new request
c.) Delete all copied transport entries from the object list of the "first" request
However, if you are not fully aware of the dependencies between different transport object entries the splitting of object lists may cause hassle when you import the splitted requests into the next SAP system.

Regarding the FM and FG in a Transport Request

hI Experts,
I have created a Function Module and make some changes in the Function Group but in the Transport Request i see that i have only Function Group only.
Is Function group automatically contain the function module.?
Regards,
RG

Hi,
Dont worry ... the Transport Request has the Function Group. This means the Function Module is also under the same Request.
Whenever a Function Group is transported, all the FMs inside the Function Group are also transported.
Hope this helps!

Saurabh.

Only display and assign function for transport request

Hi,
I have a requirement for transport creation. I need to set a restriction on transport creation.the requirements are as per below :
Group A : Allow to create a transport request - both workbench & customize request.
Group B : Allow to assign transport request to the one create by Group A. This group is not allowed to create any request be it
workbece or customize.
I found an object - S_TRANSPRT. I have create a role and assign only activity DISPLAY & ASSIGN to group B. However, group B can still create customize request. Is there any other objects that I have to restrict.
Appreciate your feedback.
Thanks,
IAzir.

Hi
You can take system trace(ST01) and find out what are the objects and the field values you need to restrict.
If you are able to find the same, its good , if not let us know.

Get the changes in WF template under a transport request

Hi Friends,
Can any one help me to find out, How I can figure out the changes done in a WF template mentioned under transport request.
Regards
Dev

Hi,
How I can figure out the changes done in a WF template
1)In the T.code SWDD, below the workflow no. You can find the Version.
2) '000' --> is the initial version, once you release the Transport Request then again you making the changes to the workflow new version will be generated.
3) Open 2 sessions, Goto SWDD in the Both the session and give the workflow no., then in one session, choose the previous Version and compare the workflow.
4) To manage the version to delete or retrieve back, goto Basic Data -> Version Overview.

Tcode or a easier approach to release bunch of transport requests at once

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me if there is tcode or a way to release transport requests in mass i.e., selecting all the requests created by a user and releasing them all with one click.
CATT might work but I am not sure..can anyone confirm that it can be used?
Any easier way than doing it one by one is highly appreciated. Points will be awarded for the help.
Thanks,
Kumar

Hi ..
One thing you can do. Create two separate test program. In one program write simple one write statement and from another program submit the previous prog via job .
do 1000 times.
call function 'JOB_OPEN'
    exporting
      jobname          = l_name               "Job Name
    importing
      jobcount         = l_number             "Job Number
    exceptions
      cant_create_job = 1
      invalid_job_data = 2
      jobname_missing = 3
      others           = 4.
if sy-subrc = 0.
Submit the job in background
    submit z2nd_prog
    via job l_name number l_number and return.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
      call function 'JOB_CLOSE'
        exporting
          jobcount             = l_number
          jobname              = l_name
          strtimmed            = 'X'
        exceptions
          cant_start_immediate = 1
          invalid_startdate    = 2
          jobname_missing      = 3
          job_close_failed     = 4
          job_nosteps          = 5
          job_notex            = 6
          lock_failed          = 7
          others               = 8.
enddo.

How to release the cancelled transport request ...

Hi Experts,
i have released a TR and it was cancelled bcos my system is very slow.
Once the system is up,i was tried to release the TR.But i am not able to release it.
Please help me on this.
Thanks,
Babu

Hi Vijay,
Check the status of TR in SE01...check if you can find some relevant logs...
If you are not able to get any information from logs..
Create new Transport Request of type "Transport of copies" and include your TR in this request. Try releasing Transport of copies.
If this also does not work...
1. Copy all object along with their object type names etc...(You can do this by double clicking on TR and copy all objects from OBJECTS tab).
2. Delete all objects from current TR .(place cursor on individual object in TR and press Delete button).
3. Create new workbench Request, double click on request, goto objects TAB and copy paste all the objects which you have copied in notepad in step 1.
4. Save this TR and release it.

Mohaiyuddin

Custom program to release/importa a transport request

Hi all.
I was searching the forum but I didn't found any post. Well, this is my issue: I want to create a program that can do all the transport steps: release a transport request and import this transport request in another system.
When I say "another system" I'm talking about SAP systems in the same transport route: Development --> Test --> Prod.
I didn't found any Function Module or BAPI to do this process. Any idea? I think there will be a FM/BAPI to release a transport request and another to do the import in target system.
Thanks in advance. Regards,
Roberto Campo

Hello,
To do the release : TMS_TP_EXPORT
To do the import : TMS_TP_IMPORT
For the rest check function modules in function group TMST in tcode SE80.
I don't understand why you want such a program.
Importing transports can be automated via STMS (example automatic import every 10 minutes), then you don't need to write your own program, because after release of your transport, transport comes in the QA import queue and will be imported via the automatic job.
Success.

Release object from transport request

HI
I want to take off two objects from my transport request.
How is it possible without releasing all the exisiting objects from the request.
Regards,
Tapish

Hi Tapish,
You can go in any of the following ways
1)Goto SE01 and give your transport request number.
   goto your task and click on edit button. you will get the list of all objects in a table.
   click on the object that needs to be deleted and click on the delete button.
2)Goto se03 and give your request number to unlock all the objects.
    click on the objects that need to be deleted and click on delete button on top.
    dont forget to lock the objects after deleting the required
The second option will work in your case i guess.
Hope this helps..
Cheers,
Srinath.

Release Prerequisites
Definition
The release prerequisites indicate the sequence in which a purchase requisition or an external purchasing document must be approved via the release codes. The release prerequisites are defined in the Purchasing Customizing facility (in the release strategy).
The approval procedure for purchase requisitions in an enterprise may be set up in such a way that a department manager must approve a requisition item before the next level of authority (e.g. the cost center manager). In this case, approval by the department manager is a prerequisite for approval by the cost center manager.
Release Indicator
Definition
When a requisition or an external purchasing document has been processed via a release code, a release indicator is assigned to it.
When the system sets which release indicator is defined in the Customizing facility for Purchasing (in the release strategy via the release statuses).
What does the release indicator determine?
Requisitions...
External purchasing documents....
Whether the item may be changed by Purchasing or Materials Planning and Control after the start of the release procedure
Whether a new strategy is determined and whether existing releases must be cancelled in the event of changes
Whether an RFQ or a PO may be created with reference to the item
Whether the document may be changed by Purchasing after the start of the release procedure
Whether a new strategy is determined and whether existing releases must be cancelled in the event of changes
Whether the purchasing document is released for transmission
Alternative Release
Definition
Within the release sequence, you can define alternatives. This means that several employees can effect release (signify approval) at a certain point in the sequence. If just one of these employees has effected release, the next release status is reached. The other employees thus need take no action.
Five release codes are defined for purchase requisitions in an ascending hierarchy. The requisition item can be converted into either an RFQ or a PO if release has been effected either with the release codes 01, 02, 03 and 04 or - alternatively - with release code 05.
The box with the information on the release strategy also offers you the possible alternatives for selection (see Displaying Release Information).
An alternative release cannot be a prerequisite for the next release code. In the above example, the releases with codes 01, 02, 03 and 04 could not be prerequisites for release with 05.
Release w. Classification (PReqs./Ext. Pur. Docs.)
Use
The aim of this procedure is to replace manual written authorization procedures using signatures by an electronic one, while maintaining the dual control principle.
The person responsible processes the requisition or other purchasing document in the system, thereby marking it with an "electronic signature" which can give the document legal force.
This release procedure can be used to approve requisitions and the external purchasing documents RFQ, PO, contract, scheduling agreement, and service entry sheet.
Purchase requisitions are released either at item level or in total. There is no provision for item-wise release (i.e. partial approval) in the case of the external purchasing documents. The latter can only be released in their entirety.
If you set up the release procedure with classification for purchase requisitions, the procedure without classification is deactivated.
Prerequisites
The release procedure with classification must have been set up in Customizing for Purchasing. In addition, a class with characteristics must have been created for each document (requisition, purchase order, etc.).
If you wish to set up both the overall release procedure and the item-wise procedure for requisitions, you must create one class for each procedure.
How to do this is outlined in the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Purchasing in Define Release Procedure for the relevant documents and in Set Up Release Procedure with Classification for purchase requisitions. You will find detailed information on classification in the R/3 Library in the documentation CA Characteristics and CA The Classification System.
This procedure offers a wide range of possible combinations of release criteria. Should you nevertheless have other requirements, use the enhancement provided by SAP.
Operation of Release Procedure w. Classification
The characteristic values from a requisition or external purchasing document are passed on to the classification system.
The system checks whether the values correspond with release conditions. If so, it assigns a release strategy.
The persons responsible for the release codes process the document in the sequence defined in the release strategy.

Changing the source client of a transport request

Hi!
I transported few requests from client 300 to client 200 using transaction scc1.
Now, i want to transport them to another client from 200. But when i try to release those requests the systems prompts "Request <#> (300) belongs to a different client".
I tried changing the source by double clicking the request, but I'm unable to do so.
Can u please suggest any way of changing the source client of these requests ?
Thanks!!

Muzammil.

Hi,
Goto SE01,
The type transport number

Place cursor on the TR
Click Utilities=>Reorganize=>Change Project.

Transport of Number range and release proceure and split valuation

Dear Gurus,
Can we transport number ranges from PRD server to Quality Server?
Also, how will we trasport split valuation and release procedure?
Kindly suggest..

Hi
Number ranges you have to create directly as it is not transportable.
For release Strategy details, all your Release config details are transported Except for the below details
1. Characteristics & values assigned to it ( master data)
2. Class & assigned characteristics to it (master data)
3. Values/ranges inside the Release strategies ( classification details).
These three details are to be recreated/assigned in the client you intend to work upon.
Regards
SAM
