Is CTS+ configuration a prerequisite to Quality Gates ?
Hello,
I have heard that CTS+ has to be configured first before I can configure Quality Gates on my Solution Manager system.
Does anyone know if this is true?
Thanks,
Judith
Dear Judith,
According to SAP Note 1256490 it states TMS has to be activated.
So this would cover ABAP systems.
The Note also makes reference to Note 1256490 - regarding an issue for NON-ABAP systems and CTS+,
which would indicate that TMS is the prerequisite transport for ABAP systems, but it can be infered for
non-ABAP systems CTS+ is the required transport.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Paul

Quality Gate Management - new features in SPS 23 but no documentation
Dear SDN Members,
After an update to SPS 24, we noticed 2 new buttons in a Quality Gate project:
- Reassign Transport Requests
- Distribute Transport of Copies
I can imagine the functionality of both by deduction from what is available in CHaRM.
It is nevertheless impossible to find further documentation.
So, any help on how to configure and / or use these functions will be appreciated.
Regards.Hello Jos,
please see the below links:
for a global introduction:
https://websmp203.sap-ag.de/e2e -> change control management : Quality Gate Management
for a detailed documentation
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_smehp1/helpdata/en/b3/64c33af662c514e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
-> Under Change Request Management and Change Management click on Quality Gate Management
- Reassign Transport Requests
- Distribute Transport of Copies
are two functionalities that existed even before Quality Gate concept. Those were available in tasklists and change documents of Change Request Management of Solman.
You ll definitely find more info on both on this forum by sarching transport of copie and transport request reassignment.
One more thing : for the reassignment of TR; it does nt allow you moving a TR from a Solman project to another. It only let you assign an open (modifiable) in a dev satelilite system to a CTS project (linked to a Solman Project) so you can manage its release and import from Solman
Hope this helps

CTS+ configuration in XI. Need help.
Hi All,
I have followed the How to Doc " Enhanced CTS configuration in XI" from the link below
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/20965d21-6c93-2a10-d4a0-9f3c27a939fc
But, functionality is not working. I need advice from any body who followed this document to configure CTS+.
With regards to Pre-req, I have applied all of them correctly in terms of Tp ver, support packs and Java support packs.. I am 100% sure about it. Our Netweaver system is Netweaver04S/Netweaver 7.0 SPS 14.
To begin with have some confusion from the document from Page 15 point 8 and page 18 point 15 regarding the CTS export directory. Our SAp install directory is S: drive and rest of the path. I have created folder called "ctsExport" in S:usrsap<SID>SYSglobalxi, but for the same system (dev) I am not sure how they can point to two different drives? Is that error in document?
and Further in points 25 and 28, for name "com.sap.aii.ibdir.core.transport.exportCtsDirectory" corresponding value is "true" and not the directory path as shown in screens. I am not sure, where I am getting wrong and how to correct the problem.
Please advice..
If I could correct problems in these areas, I will move forward to correct any other problems...

We are using NWDI system for transporting our portal transports.

Hi guys,
I have one problem when I try to export a software component via CTS. This is the first export that I will release after the CTS configuration.
The transport domain is the SAP PI developent enviroment it's composed with DEV, QUA and PRD systems.
When I try to export one software component I obtain the next error in Integration Repository:
Default request is not configured (for applType: XI, user: username, sid: XD1, SC: b38bcd00e47111d7afacde420a1145a5). Create a corresponding default request (e.g. via your Transport Administrator)
I have configured one standard request for this issue.
Can anybody helpl me?
Best Regards
IváHi Arun
Google "CTS+ Configuration Guide" and you'll find multiple PDF guides (most 7.0 stuff is still valid for 7.1 in terms of CTS+ it hasn't changed that much):
Best practices for CTS+

7.1 SP specific guidance:
Help has guidance as well where you find the relevant steps:

In other words plenty of guidance how to do this without the need for someone to detail this out . I would say, start by following the help.sap.com steps and use those other PDF guides as a reference to help you out. If you have further questions while configuring or if you get stuck, post another question on SCN forums.

CTS+ configuration for CRM Java stack
Hi gurus,
I want to implement CTS+ configuration for java stack of CRM system.
Please any one help me on this is there specific setting for that.
In the process of configuration it is asking for SDM password.
So I am confused that wh which SDM Password will be supplied SOLMAN or CRM SDM password.
Please help urgently.
Thanks in advance
DhirajHello Dhiraj,
You might want to have a look at SAp Note 1045501, it states:
> The "Best Practices for Implementing CTS" guide in SAP Developer Network (SDN) explains the architecture and components of CTS. It contains descriptions for possible system landscapes and configuration examples for various application cases. https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10456aac-44f7-2a10-1fbe-8b7bcd7bcd58
Please follow the link. Then just click on the view how to Guide button. This document talks about the dual stack landscape.
I hope you find it a bit more helpful than the first document.

Hi,
I am doing CTS+ configuration. We have DEV(7.00 SP14), QAS(7.00 SP14) and SOL(7.01 SP5) system. All are dual stacks. My requirement is i have to transport DEV(Source) to QAS(Target) using SOL(Communication) system. I have confugured SOL system as a domain controller.
I have completed all the configurations. When i do testing, i come to know Target System field is empty in CTS_BROWSER.
Can you please suggest where i did mistake? Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Ramesh.N
Edited by: Ramesh Narayanan on Aug 30, 2011 5:09 PMHi Daniel,
if you configured a transport route which consists of DEV, QAS and PRD, this is the way a transport request will go. You are not able to change this in the transport Organizer Web UI. Only if you had configured more than one QA - e.g QA1 and QA2 - then you would be able to choose one of these two systems in Transport Organizer Web UI.
Kind regards

Hi All,
My question is :
Once we have configured the ABAP-Stack of a dual-stack system into the transport domain through CTS, so can we now move the JAVA-based objects as well or we need to do something else also.
If so, what is that?
RegardsHi Chilbul,
Your question is pretty vague. As per it, we don't know if you have actually carried out all the steps of CTS+ configuration prior to including the abap stack in transport routes or not.
If you have already completed CTS+ configuration and this was the last step you did, then your java developers should be able to include their objects in a transport request.
However, if you haven't done the CTS+ configuration yet, then please do that. For reference, these are some documents that should help you:

Quality Gate Management workflow
Hi Gurus,
I have successfully implemented Quality Gate Management POC for a 4 System Landscape.I have few questions.
My questions are:
1. Can we have control on moving only block of change requests at any specific point of time to PRODUCTION
For Eg: Let us suppose there are 50 Change Requests which are pending to move to PRODUCTION. Can I move only 25 Change Requests at a specific time and the other 25 at some other time to PRODUCTION instead of moving all the 50 at a time (the option START IMPORT will move all the CHANGE REQUESTS into PRODUCTION at one time)? I am able to move only specific block of Change Requests from DEV to QUALITY. But not from QUALITY to PRODUCTION.
2. Is there any possibilty of using the CROSS SYSTEM OBJECT LOCKING in QGM without using CHARM?
Thanks,
