Is Access in Modifications Adjustment Phase in SPDD: 4.7, SR1

Hi,
We are applying support packages and while in SPDD phase when we choose for "adopt modifications, it is asking for "Developer access key".
Same prompting while clicking the "accept proposal" or "Edit Proposal" also.
We are doing this activity in client 000 with Registered developer user ID only.
My doubts are:
1. Is Developer access Key required for doing Modification adjustments???
Please through some light . . .
Thanks

We are using OS SunOS 5.10. We have gone through the note 525677.
SunOS 5.10 doesn´t use /etc/system but uses projects to configure IPC shared memory.
Did you configure /etc/project and /etc/user_attr according to
Note 724713 - parameter settings for Solaris 10

Adding Modification Adjustment Transports to SPAM queue

Hello;
As part of my upgrade, I need to remove a table column as the upgrade to component SAP_APPL will re-insert it. However, if I remove it separately from the upgrade, the activation of the table removes the data - which needs to be kept.
I've created a transport that will remove it. How do I include it in the queue when the the stack for SAP_APPL is imported? Will the Modification Adjustment displayed when "queuing" the SAP_APPL stack allow the transport to be imported with them? If so, how do I get the transport into the respective queue so SPAM will see it?
Thanks.
Jim

Hi Jim,
YOu can include Modification Adjustment Transport only in the SPAM import queue.
It is not possible for your to include a normal transport in the SPAM import queue.
for details, you can refer to the online help:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/de/151042f664e12ce10000000a1550b0/content.htm
So my suggestion is to just do SPAM import on your DEV system, and when the import run into the SPDD phase, you can create transport and do modification adjustment for this table. When you do upgrade on QAS and PRD system, you can include the modification adjustment transport generated on DEV system in the SPAM import queue.
For details please refer to the online help:

Software Component Vector in Modification Adjustment Transport

Hello all,
We are in the middle of a support pack project for our SRM system, and I've run into a snag as I prepare to move them into QAS. We've had this system for many years, and when DEV was originally installed in 2000 it was as a B2B 2.0a system. It was upgraded to 2.0b before GoLive, and the QAS and PRD systems were installed directly as 2.0b systems. The entire landscape has been upgraded several times in the twelve years since, and today it is on release SRM 5.0.
The problem is that the DEV system still shows an installed software component of NDI_ERM (Extended Relationship Management) in release 20A. Obviously that is actually long gone, but it still shows up in SPAM in the Display Package Level function, and under Attribute SAPCOMPONENT in the properties of all transport requests released from this system. It should have been passively deleted during the first (or subsequent) upgrade long ago, but for whatever reason that didn't happen. This software component never existed in QAS or PRD and does not show up in SPAM in those systems.
This hasn't been an issue in the past, and so I've just ignored it as I always had bigger fish to fry. I've performed upgrades and support packages for these systems without an issue, but we hadn't done any of these tasks for the past three years.
Until now.
I successfully installed support package stack 28 for SRM 5.0 into DEV a few months ago, and I performed the required modification adjustments in SPAU, creating the usual modification adjustment transport. Now, however, when I am trying to import the support packs into QAS, I have a problem when defining the queue, at the step for adding the modification adjustment transport. The transport is marked with a Software Component Vector that includes the defunct ghost NDI_ERM 20A, and NDI_ERM doesn't exist in QAS. SPAM finds the transport, but marks it with a red light ("Transport does not fit"). Drilling into details shows me that everything matches perfectly except for my ghost. On that line I get "The software component is not installed," and SPAM will not allow me to add the transport into the queue.
I should point out that I can import regular transports just fine, and I'm pretty sure I could just import the queue without the modification adjustment transport, and then import it manually when SPAM gets to the step about performing the adjustment. No doubt that would work, and that's almost certainly what I'm going to end up doing. But it bugs me that I can't fix this.
I have some thoughts about fixes that might work, and I'd like input on whether anyone else has dealt with (and solved) this problem before.
I think that I could probably just delete the line in DEV in table CVERS for NDI_ERM and so have it no longer show up in the attributes of future transports. That might solve the problem going forward, though it won't fix the mod adjust transport I've already released. Any thoughts about this?
I was able to get the existing transport to no longer show NDI_ERM in its attributes by deleting the appropriate line in DEV in table E070A. After doing that the transport looked fine in the STMS queue for QAS when drilling into its properties. However, this apparently isn't enough for SPAM. As I had already uploaded the transport in SPAM once, SPAM 'remembers' it and seems to have therefore cached its properties, including the NDI_ERM software component. I haven't been able to figure out how to get SPAM to 'forget' this transport so I could completely upload it anew and hopefully get new attributes that will then match the correct software component vector for the target system. Resetting the queue status doesn't do it.
Any thoughts on where (what tables) SPAM stores information about modification adjustment transports, and how to clear that information out? Any thoughts on the (admittedly drastic) measures I've mentioned above?
Thanks in advance,
--Matt

Hello,
SAP strictly forbids the modification of those tables for specific Add-Ons or even essential software component. As you do not really delete those products from a SAP system. This will only partially remove meta information from a SAP sytem. After the "reinstallation" the data and many other log files are still exists and may have some really inconvenient side effects in a SAP systems (inconsistent installation, incomplete database table conversion, problems regarding maintenance via notes and support packages, modifications cannot be reverted...) .
Additionaly it will be very difficult or even impossible to resolve upgrade or maintenance issues.
If you have any issue regarding an installation of a SAP product, you should contact the corresponding SAP support. They will provide you the right solution.
Currently SAP only provides for a small subset of Add-Ons the deinstallation.
Thanks a lot for your understanding
with kind regards,

Handling Modification Adjustment in Subsequent System

Hello All,
I am upgrading my Ecc to EHP4 and want the SPDD and SPAU modification to be used in the subsequent System.
I have read the installation document and understood the following.
Pre-reqisite :The CTS should be configured and the trans should be shareble across the dev-qa-prd
FOR SPDD(in the shadow system)
1.) Create a Transport Request
2.) Flag it for transport in the SPDD t-code
3.) After all the corrections are saved in the TASK, release the task.Do not release the teansport request.
FOR SPAU (after the downtime
1.) Create a Transport Request
2.) Flag it for transport in the SPAU t-code
3.) After all the corrections are saved in the TASK, release the task.Do not release the transport request.
So both this request will be registered in the umodauto.lst file under the usr/sap/trans directory.
Regards
Anthony

Hello Sunny
Thank you for the rely.
I have a little confussion.
I just checked the bin directory of the EHPI installation directory for the umodauto.lst and i found this
/usr/sap/EHPI/EHPI/abap/bin
rasupt1:rpdadm 3> more umodauto.lst
SPAU 701 RPDK912052
SPDD 700 RPDK912049
And when i checked the global trans for the umodauto.lst i got the following
/usr/sap/trans/bin
rasupt1:rpdadm 6> more umodauto.lst
SPAU 701 RPDK912052
In the EHPI instalation directory i get both the SPDD and SPAU Transport request, where as in the global trans/bin there is only the entry of the SPAU .
I am confused as to
1.)what file the next installation will be checking
2.) And why the SPDD entry has not appeared in the global trans/bin
If you have some idea .. it will be helpfull

Regarding Screen Painter object modification adjustment in SPAU

Hi all,
We are upgrading SAP 4.6 C to ECC 6.0.I have query related to SPAU transaction.
<b>How do we adjust the modification for Screen in SPAU transaction. The traffic light in front of screen object is Green.</b>
I have gone through the help.sap.com also but the screen adjustment document is not valid for ECC 6.0 , it's valid for ECC5.0.
Can anybody suggest what exactly is to be done in this case if anybody has done it on ECC 6.0 . Has anybody done it earlier in any ECC6.0 Project?
Good solution will be rewarded.

Fail to access a modifed ISA B2B application

Hi,
I have an ISA B2B application (say b2b) in a remote server accessed by the link http://A.B.C.D:53200/b2b/b2b/init.do. Then I made a local copy called b2b_mod; made some minor changes and did the deploy with no problems so far. Using Visual Admin, it was restarted but I failed to access it. So, how can I make this access? There is a suitable URL to do that? Or something else must be done? I would apreciate any directions,
Att.
Diego Fernandes

Hi,
To setup the trace logs you need to use the following URL.
https://<system domain name>:port/<application_name>/admin
typically it should look like as below:
https://abc.com:50001/b2b/admin
Here there is an option to start and stop the logs and after stopping it will generate a Zip file which you need to download and from there you can easily find out the BAPI's or teh RFC calls.
Also when you search you should alwways keep one thing mind that these FM's normally start with CRM_ISA*
Hope it helps.

Modification adjustments during Preprocessing phase in ECC6.0 EHP4 upgrade

Hello All,
We are upgrading our SAP systems from R3 4.7 to ECC 6.0 EHP4 and we are currently in the PreProcessing phase. The upgrade screen has prompted the below message
*You must now include your repository modifications
in the new SAP import.
35 modified objects are found to be adjusted and
0 objects are automatically maintained by import
of an adjustment transport bound to this procedure.
CAUTION: It is impossible to keep these modifications
after you have confirmed this query.
Do you want to make adjustments to ABAP dictionary
objects ?*
I had a few queries
1. Can we carry out the modification adjustment now in the SPDD transaction or did we have to complete it in the Configuration Phase?
2. When we login to the Shadow Instance we are unable to see any of our custom Z progams and transactions in SE38 and SE93 respectively. Is this an issue or will they be available only after the upgrade?
3. If we create the adjustments to Dictionary objects how do we flag the request for transport in SPDD transaction?
Appreciate any help in understanding the above queries and solution to proceed.
Thanks

Hi,
> 1. Can we carry out the modification adjustment now in the SPDD transaction or did we have to complete it in the Configuration Phase?
You have to perform SPDD now.
> 2. When we login to the Shadow Instance we are unable to see any of our custom Z progams and transactions in SE38 and >SE93 respectively. Is this an issue or will they be available only after the upgrade?
SPDD is not for your Z programs. SPDD is for if you have done changed in SAP standard objects. SPDD will show changes that you have done standard object.
> 3. If we create the adjustments to Dictionary objects how do we flag the request for transport in SPDD transaction?
>
Go to SPDD transaction and changes accordingly and add to transport request there. For more information Check SAP note 485741.
Thanks

SPDD adjustment help

Hi Community,
I need help to clarify some spdd adjustmens....
On an upgrade on DEV system, we missed to implement a modification because on upgrade time, we understood on a semi-automatic adjustment -Phase 1 OK and Phase 2: Subsequent processing of table for adjustment- A table which was generated corresponds with the current version of the table. So there is therefore no need to treat it and on "Proposal corresponds to current version" ? button said The comparison of this table can then be exited with "Back".
Then we did not use buttons "accept Proposal" or "edit proposal", just push Back and get a new window with:
The adjustment proposal matches the current version of the table.
Do you want to reset the table to its original version?
We answered NO and continued with the upgrade phase, ignoring Modifications to the object were not adjusted message.
Now after upgrade, on SPDD still same objects like waiting for an adjustment.... but not sure i have to do it because of Proposal corresponds to current version message an moment we are now= upgrade is finished.... We are going too upgrade our QUA system on next days after check process.
1.- Should I adjust anything now?
2.- As I understood, SPDD adjustments must do on upgrade time, not after....isn't it?
Any help/suggestion will be gratefully.
Scottie

hello
answer in above thread holds good
Now if you are planning the landscape upgrade then it will be you can not use transport and automatically adjust SPDD now
May be you can do SPDD properly in quality and use that transport in production upgrade
Hope this helps
Success!!

Struck in SPDD phase while patch importing

Hi,
While importing basis patches, struck at RUN_SPDD phase.
I cant understand what is this? will anybody explain that
Regards,
J Wang

Hi,
If you have modified SAP objects, you must adjust these objects when you import them. Transaction SPDD adjusts Dictionary objects
If the patch upgrade is on a live system where users have customized and developers have created/modified programs, then you should do the modification adjustment. If its a fresh installation without any work done, you can ignore the modification adjustment.

Transport of Copies for Modif. Adjust. Transports during patch application

Hi Experts,
I've got two transport requests(Modification Adjustment Transports) in the DEV system containing SPAU and SPDD corrections for patch APPL-19, I need to include these Modification Adjustment transports when I start applying patch APPL-19 in my QTY system, wherein it prompts me to include Modification Adjustment Transports if any.
I've been told to release these requests in the DEV system encorporate both these requests into once and create a single request of the type Transport of Copies, and supply the Transport Request No. of this Transport of Copies request when it prompts me for Modification Adjustment Transports in the QTY system during patch APPL-19 application.
Please help me out with the procedure to create Transport of Copies for my case, also if you could post some theory on "Transport of Copies", it would be highly helpful.
Thanks Alot in advance.

Modification Adjustments (SPAU & SPDD)

Dear all,
We are going for ecc6.0 upgrade from 4.7c.
While doing modification adjustments in SPAU & SPDD we thought of doing RESET TO ORIGINAL to all objects.
Customer enhanced more than 20 standard programs. They want their older enhancements as well as new version.
How to approach this situation?
If we give RESET TO ORIGINAL whether the older enhancements will come automatically?
Expecting clear answer please.
Kind Regards.

Hi ,
You should go for Adopt Modifications for Customer enhanced programs or else the Customer enhancements will not get reflected in ECC 6.0.
If you give RESET TO ORIGINAL the older enhancements will not come automatically instead the ECC 6.0 functionality will be there. You have to go for Adopt Modification.If the traffic signal is Green in SPAU and you click on adopt modification the Customer changes will be automatically adjusted.If the traffic signal is Yellow Customer changes will be partially reflected and the remaining one's we have to do manually.If the traffic signal is Red we have to Adopt Modifications manually(i.e we have to compare both versions and copy paste the custom code)
Thanks,
Jay....

SPAU / SPDD Adjustment Problem

Hi to all and thanks in advance for reading my question.
I need to edit a program, but, when I try to, I get the message "EU 526" that instructs me that the object I'm trying to edit was already changed or enhanced and that this object has a new version imported to the system with a Release upgrade, and this new version was not reconcilied with the new version.
Ideed we have applied a support package and we are correcting a problem that were found in a standard, following a information sent to us from SAP.
Then, I go to SPAU to run the modification adjustment, but the object <b>isn't at the list of the SPAU objects</b>.
What I need to do in this situation? How can I solve this problem?
Thanks again,
Umberto

Hi
see the doc
What objects will come in SPAU and SPDD?
All the objects which are modified, after tansporting to the current system,
will be listed in SPAU and SPDD. SPDD contains the list of all modified Data Dictionary objects, like tables, dataelements, domains,view...etc. The rest of all the modified repository objects will be listed in SPAU.
What happens to the modifications done in the older version when we upgrade the version? (with Modification assistant and w/o)
After the initial upgrade happens, we have to do adjustments from SPAU/SPDD to maintain or reset the changes. That is, from the list of objects in SPAU/SPDD, you have to either carry forward the changes to the new version, by choosing the option ADOPT CHANGES (available on right click) or RESET TO ORIGINAL (available on right click).
Will they come in these transactions?
Ans: yes, they will be listed in these transactions, after the BASIS updgrade activity.
And what if we apply some patches(Notes) to the system? What is the impact of these patches to the SPAU transaction?
Ans: Patches will be supported by the version upgrade. In case of notes, we have to verify whether these notes are supported by the new version (you can go into http://www.service.sap.com/notes to verify this. Also, we have to analyze whther the code in the note is already incorporated in the new version. In this case you can ignore the chanes choosing RESET TO ORIGINAL option

SPDD Adjustment for Database indexes during the Upgrade

Hi Experts,
I am currently upgrading our Existing ERP 6.0 SP13 to ERP 6.0 ehp 4.0 with SP 03 and NW 701. I am kind of lost on the SPDD modifications Adjustment. We have 4 objects are in the SPDD modifications under "Without Medications Assistant. All of them are related to Database tables, where our developers created indexes for SAP Delivered Database table object. All of them are YELLOW. If select one of them and go to "Adopt Medications", it brings a Dialog window with
"Database table BKPF. Adjust all objects selected subtree?" --> I clicked on YES
I get the following
Database Table BKPF Table Index Z01
background
The object has been modified without using the Modification Assistant.
Therefore no support is available from the system for transferring your
modifications.
Procedure
   *[Subtree icon]* Before you adjust your modifications, you can select multiple
objects or a subtree.
*[Check Mark icon]*   If you have selected multiple objects, you can skip the processing
of this object.
You can use the "Processor/Status" function to add other processors.
If you have modified an object where multiple versions are possible,
then the last version that contains changes has been stored in "version
management".
    *[Pencil icon]* Otherwise, use your own notations to transfer the modifications to
the new version of the object.
    *[Check Mark icon]* After an object is inserted in a transportable change request, the
red traffic light icon is replaced by the green checkmark in the tree.
If you do not want any modifications to be adopted, choose the "Reset
to Original" function.
I clicked on the Pencil icon [PENCIL CHANGE] -> it takes me to that object where I DO NOT have any options to adopt the objects....
I am bit of confused, I should get an option to adopt this object, so I can keep the current version and SAP doesnt over write it after upgrade and delete my indexes.
Please tell me what I am doing wrong here.
Thanks in Adamancy

Application patch 29_ Modif. Adjust

Hi,
I am applying application patch SAPKH47029 in my system.
I need some clarifications before confirming adjustments.
1) In the spau tcode, its showing few note numbers with status "can't be implemented" few note numbers with "completely implemented" why its showing like this ?
2) In the spau tcode, its showing some transport requests which are transported to this system under the programs and function groups. why its showing those transport requests?
3) If i confirm adjustments, it will overwrite some objects which are already customized. to prevent this overwriting while applying this application patch, what can i do ?
4) In the modification adjustment help, i am getting the following instructions
   Ask the developers to adjust the modifications for their objects.After the adjustment is completed, the
      developers must release their tasks and inform you. Modifications can be adjusted in any client.
     but i am not getting how they will do the modifications for their objects ?
     and why they need to do the modifications for their objects ?
Regards,
Gayathry.

Before performing the sp's you need to check your SPAU and see what are all the objects lying there for example some notes or fixes for the DD objects or Applications which were not supported with your present sp level so when you go for next level of sp this all modifications or fixes wud/might be bundled together in the next release odf sp so you need to ask the dev team to check for that and ask them to create a new transport request under which they can make or store the changes they want in SPAU once you are done with ur sp's then you need to adjust the SPAU with the help of a developer.
