Maintenance Cycle Next Phase
Hi,
We are using chaRM 4.0, in tx SCMA,we can not able to move the Phase Transistion from 'Created' to 'Development without Release'. When we click on the next phase it is giving the below error . kindly help us.

Hello Jenifer,
The problem usually is due to errors in the CRM transaction that represents the Maintenance Cycle. You can check it by calling transaction CRM_DNO_MONITOR and entering in the transaction type SDMN then process.
You will get a list of all Maintenance cycles, select the proper one and double click.
In the CRM Transaction in the upper/right side you should have a red button if you click it you can find out the reason for the error and correct it.
Then the Phase change can be performed.
Just a info for you, you can also perform the Phase Change throught the CRM transaction type SDMN, check the actions button and you will find it.

Problem with differetn phases for one maintenance cycle
Dear Solman Gurus.
It has happened several times, tha while working with maintenance cycle from 2 different places - from activity Maintenance cycle and form Task list, that system shows different phases. For example in task list is phase TEST in activity Maintenance cycle is phase Development wit release. And you are not able to correct it. Or at least we do not know how to do it. So we can only close the whole maitenance and start all over again.
Please help us how to prevent this situation or how to correct it.

PetrHi Petr,
You should have a look to SAP Note 933705 that helps with your problem.

Inconsistency with maintenance cycle and task list phases in ChaRM
Hi Experts,
I'm deploying ChaRM with SolMan 4.0 SP09.
I was testing a scenario where there are more than one maintenance project open for same landscape (different logical components but values are the same). I have been using maintenance cycle document (in crmd_order) to control phase changes both in task list and in maintenance cycle.
I received an error message stating that the system has reset the status of the maintenance cycle and the end result was that task list phase is one step ahead of the maintenance cycle. This of course causes the situation where certain actions are no longer possible (maintenance cycle in Dev with release but task list already in test => release and import are not possible and reseting phase with task list is prevented by ChaRM).
My question is how do I restore the inconsistency. I have looked for notes (but of course this is not a notes issue) and the internet for solution.
I am very greatful for any hints you may give me!
Kind regards,
AuliThank you!
Exactly what I'm trying to do. I'll give it a go and get back to you asap.

Urgent plz...CHanging project/maintenance cycle phase
i have implementation project and activated ChaRM for it.
the task list and project cycle has been created scuccessfully.
i created change request and assigned to that task list. when i set status "Development Complete" i need to import the TRs manually (SDMJ), but for that the phase of the cycle should be "DEVELOPMENT WITH RELEASE"
i can change the task list phase by executing report /TMWFLOW/PHCNTRL_DB_UTILITY and the TR is imported to QAS successfully as well but the project cycle (SDDV) is still in :DEVELOPMENT W/O RELEASE" ???
and when i try to change the phase (CRM_DNO_MONITOR -> SDDV -> Next phase) it gives error
Message no. SOCM_ACTION_LOG 090
Diagnosis
An exception has been triggered in PPF action processing.
System Response
Action processing has been terminated. The status of the transaction is still incorrect.
Procedure
You cannot execute the action until the cause of the error has been removed.
The error messages will be kept until the transaction is next checked for subsequent analysis.
Procedure for System Administration
If necessary, analyze other messages in the application log for the incorrect transaction. To analyze the termination, you can activate the breakpoints in the checkpoint group socm_exception.

yes ..task list and project cycle must be in sync

there is no service desk project...but a service desk transaction wihch in turn automatically updates the status of task list..this transaction and task list both are attached to corr changes of ur project
generally the process is to change the status using service desk transaction not using that report that report is used in case of problem occured....therefore used for force closing the cycle.
Hope it clarifies

Error "no link to maintenance cycle" happens after reset to previous phase
Experts:
I have a CHaRM project which has successfully transported a few changes into production.
Then I use action "set to previous phase" several times to set this project to "development without release".
Then I create another change request by selecting the maintenance cycle of above project.
After authorizing and saving above change request, a normal correction is created. However this normal correction
has an error "no link to maintenance cycle" even its document flow shows the maintenance cycle mentioned above.
The IBase is the same as previous selected and is verified to be right.
Could you help decide what else is wrong?
Thanks!Hi
Please go to your project and PRESS REFRESH button in System landscape-Change Requests Tab
this update the entries in database then now
goto this table /TMWFLOW/PROJMAP
Check if the Project is still locked in table /TMWFLOW/PROJMAP: If an error is detected during the processing, then the project might be locked in this table.
The refresh button will help you to get out of this problem and check also if there any other errors.

How to take a maintenance cycle out of phase 'Development without Release'?
Gurus:
I have a need to take a maintenance cycle out of phase 'Development without Release'.
I have searched OSS and SDN but failed to find any solution.
Would you please help give some hint?
I appreciate your precious help.Hi,
If you want to change the phase of you maintenance cycle, 2 solutions :
Go in t-code solar_project_admin then choose you project. In the System Landscape --> Change Request Tab, then either :
- click on the Show Tasklist button then click on the Phase button. You can change the phase from here.
- click on the Show Service Desk transaction which is the cycle and change the phase executing an action.
Hope it helps.
Kind regards,
Stéphane.
PS : you can use tx /n/tmwflow/proj as well by choosing a project from the left pannel then clicking on the full screen button in the Scheduling tab. -
Object to change the SCMA maintenance cycle phase in CHARM
Hi Everyone,
Can anyone let me know what is the Object which can perform the activity of changing the Maintenance cycle phase in SCMA Tcode in CHARM? i know only the change manager will have authorization to do that. i want to know the Role name and the particular object which will perform this activity.
thanks,
GuruHi ,
You can follow the below steps.
-> Goto Tcode SUIM
-> Roles -> By authorization object
-> object name : B_SMAN_WPL
-> Execute
This will give you the list of roles that are holding this object.

SDMJ assignment to Maintenance Cycle is done in wrong phase
Hello,
Since Solution Manager SP15 we have the following problem.
If you Approve the Normal Correction (SDMJ) the system does not ask you to which Maintenance Cycle you want to assign this NC (SDMJ). Before SP15 this used to work !
Now ... after SP15 the question is asked only at the phase of setting the Normal Correction "Into Development. so one stage too late !
Now, instead of the Change Manager, the Developer has to decide to which Maintenance Cycle a Normal Correction belongs to. This is unwanted behaviour.
Are there other customers, having the same problem ?
With kind regards,
Rik Vriens

Hi dear colleagues!
Here there are some unpleasant problems which has arisen during Change Management functions realization...
1. After approving of Urgent Correction by so-called "Change Manager", "developer" couldn't set it status "in development" -> and begin corrections in DEV system. It outputs in status bar: "NO ACTIONS IN THE WORK LIST".
2. How should i link some urgent correction (or simply Service Message) to a specific Maintenance Cycle?
The same problem I cannot go to the next phase, system outputs that "No Maintenance Cycle is open for the current system".
3. And please can u explain in a simple words: Should i always make a maintenance project for using "Change Management" functions?
4. Can we use "Change Management" for 4.0C (vers. of satellite) systems?
Any help and tips would really appreciate.
Best regards,
VladimirHi,
For configuring change management, you will have to follow the SPRO guidelines for setting up transport routes between satellite systems.
Well i list down the activities that you need to do. Details you can find in SPRO -- > SAP Solution Manager --> Scenario Specific Settings --> Change Request Management --> Standard Configuration --> transport management System
1) Activate Extended transport control by setting System Parameter CTC=1 in STMS --> Systems
2)Create Client specific transport route between satellite systems
3) Ensure that all the systems in the domain have the same transport group.
4)Configure or activate Single transport Strategy in STMS --> Overview --> transport routes.
5)Activate TMS Trusted services in STMS --> Overview --> Systems --> Goto --> transport Domain --> Management Tab page --> Security option group box.
Besides these activities, you will have to execute the SPRO IMG Activity
SAP Solution Manager --> Basic Settings --> SAP Solution Manager System --> Activate Integration with Change Request Management
For activity Intigration Solution Manager make the following entry
APPL: Change Request Management
RFC Destination : NONE
For activity Integration Change Request Management
make the entries in table BCOS_CUST as g
iven in the IMG instruction.
Now in SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN you can activate a maintenance project for change management by going to System Landscape --> Project Cycle
Click the check box Activate Change request Management.
(NOTE: The above option comes only in Solution Manager 4.0, for SOLMAN 3.2 you can directly create maintenance cycle in /n/tmwflow/cmsconf --> Distribution Routes --> Project Landscape group box .)
Now you can create a maintenance cycle by clickin on the button Create Task List in project cycle tab page.
Navigate to task list and activate the tasklist (Maintenance Cycle) by clicking on the status button.
Now while creating change request ensure that you are assigning the correct ibase /component of the production system in the satellite system landscape. You have to enter the ibase component of the client of the production system to whcih the client specific transport route has been made. You can find this number in transaction IB52
Hope now u can move on with CHARM. -
Cannot Close Maintenance Cycle in CHARM
Hi,
I'm testing CHARM and I'm trying to set the Maintenance Cycle (SDMN) to "Complete", but it's giving me an error.
Error: "Move to Next Maintenance Phase Rejected"
I was able to go through all the maintenance phases successfully as part of my testing, but for some reason the system will not let me close the maintenance cycle.
How can I find the problem?Hi,
Follow this note to 1134993.
This should solve your problem.
Feel free to revert back.

Some consultants are stating that it's better to have 1 maintenance cycle per system in solution manager and keep moving the phases back and forward (thus: after go-live the phase is being moved back to "development without release" and from there a new normal correction can start). But can somebody explain to me <b>why</b> this is better than closing a maintenance cycle at the end of a normal correction?
Thanks in advance!Hi!
I personally wouldn't recommend that but it sounds like an alternative method of handling parallel development for multiple release. At least in the project I'm in, there is a need to handle two or more simultaneous business releases with different go live dates.
Idealistically there should be only one maintenance project and subsequently one maintenance cycle per system. A release (=maintenance cycle) is planned, executed and delivered. End of story. But in reality this is not the case. Planning and executing next cycle is usually started while the previous has not yet gone live and this is something that is hard to handle when you can have only one maintenance cycle at the time.
I'm guessing that the idea of going back and forth with cycle phases is to use certain functionality of one phase but still keep the previous phase functionalities and enable parallel development.
Having two or more maintenance projects and subsequently many maintenance cycles in order to enable parallel development is risky and it doesn't work well. Trust me I've tried. With more project than one in the same system you easily end up with inconsistencies etc.
Hope this helps even a bit!

We had resolve the issue as now we are able to close the cycle successfully,
But new CTS project is not being generated, Any idea, should we need to check this with SAP again.

Dear All,
I am in process of implementing CHARM and i am facing issue in the process flow for maintenance cycle.
In normal changes - we create change request and a maintenance cycle (MC) is attached to it. Once we change the status to Dev with release then changes are moved to Test system (transport of copies) and after successful testing (actual transport request is released) we change MC status to Test then changes moves to Test system. Then MC moves to Go live and then changes are imported to production. Now when status of MC is go live then we need to change the status back to dev with release which is not working instead it gets insync with the project phase. Kindly let me know if anyone has faced the similar situation.
Can you someone please clarify how mc status should work in case of normal changes.
Regards
SushantHi Sushant,
1. try to change the phase of the project cycle without assigning any Change Document to it .
2. Number Ranges
"Before you can begin using Change Request Management transaction types, you must ensure that a number range is defined for these transaction types. The number range interval determines the sequential numbers assigned to newly created transactions. "
To do so you can use transaction SNUM and enter CRM_SERVIC as the number range object.
The number range interval which the system uses is defined in the transaction customizing in the Transaction Numbering section.
