Multiple Transport Package Impact

We have created transport packages created per module and 1st module APO is released to QA and Production, next GL module is also released when we transport all dependent objects eventhough they were transported earlier in SCP also changed to package GL and released to QA. Currently MM module is being released and all dependent objects which are either SCP or GL are changed to package PUR and released to QA. What will be the impact of this in QA and Production. Is Transport Package used only to bundle the objects together or do we need to follow strictly one transport package per BW system.
Kindly reply ASAP as we have some issue in the understanding of the same.

Hi Teja
yes, one can contain another....but i prefer only one as per one role modification
thanks

Transport layer and transport package

I have a fundamental query on transport package and layer.
Objects are classified in packages depending on the project and put in $TMP or test package else they are local ? Only objects belonging to a transport package can be transported , others are not ? How transport package is defined ? All objects must be a part of transport package else can not be transported ?
ABout transport layer, I understand this is used to define which path objects will take during transport particularly when there are multiple transport routes. But what are the advantages of it ? How we can define it (trx code/menu path) ?
Is it mandatory to use transport package and layers ?

Hi Mike,
Just to clarify a few basic concepts:
A transport package (formerly called a "development class", a term you may still encounter) groups related development objects. Whenever you create a new development object (table, program, ...) you have to assign it to a package; the object is then placed into a transport request. Alternatively you can indicate it is a local object (its package is then "$TMP") but such an object is non-transportable.
A transport layer identifies the route that transportable devmt objects must follow. Typically in your system you will have two layers: a layer usually called Zxxx (with xxx = SID of your development system) is used for your own developments. Another layer called "SAP" is used for transporting SAP objects, for example changes to standard SAP code implemented via transaction SNOTE and recorded in repairs. Without the "SAP" layer in place, repairs would be non-transportable.
Each transport package belongs to a layer. You assign the layer when you create a new package in transaction SE80. You can change the layer later on, but this is rarely needed and can cause quite a few side-effects. SAP objects always have layer "SAP". The layers themselves are managed in STMS, under "Transport Routes".
Hope this clarifies things,
Rgds, Mark

Multiple transports in Code Inspector object set

I'd like to be able to put a Code Inspector object set together with multiple transports and my current version (46c)only supports a single input. Anyone know how to input multiple transports?
Tim Barrow
ADP

Tim,
Even the current version (7.0) supports just one transport request. Looks like that is ruled out, then.
You could use the first tab (Select object set) to include multiple packages? Or you could use the 'free selection' to specify objects..
Hope this helps.

Multiple Transports for the Same Object.

I have ABAP program 123 and I make a change, create transport A and release the transport. I do not request transport A go to production.
I then modify ABAP program 123 again, create transport B and release the transport. I do not request transport B go to production.
Now I request transport A go to production.
Can someone explain to me why the changes in transport B are included when transport A is moved to production?
I thought each transport would be at its own change level.
Thank-you.

I can guarantee all of you that when Transport A was moved, it contained changes that were made in Transport B.
Surely you understand that Thomas is correct and that there's a logical reason, not related to transport layer configuration, for the issue? You CAN have multiple transports open for the same object without a lock by forcing it but check the dates as already suggested...

Can we have multiple transports for the same object.

Hi guys,
Can we have multiple transports for same object in dev system. Can anyone tell me how can this be done.
Thanks

Its not possible for the same development object. Only 1 person can access an object at a time and if mutiple users modify an object new TASKs are created under the same TRANSPORT.
Only after releasing the tr you can create a new tr on the same object.

How to find multiple transport requests for one object

Hi all,
Is there any function module which will fetches multiple transport requests ( if created ) for one object.I tried almost all the function modules , but i didn't got the solution.
I need to develop a report ,   which will takes a single Task number as input and gets the Request number from table E070.
Based on that Request Number i will fetch remaining Task numbers under it.
Then for all the Tasks Numbers, i am fetching their objects by using table E071.
I need to list out whether any of these objects are in multiple Transport Requests. Once i got all the Transport Request numbers i need to release the Request based on their Transport Request sequence.
I tried the following FM's , but not able to get the solution.
SVRS_DISPLAY_VERSION_LIST
SVRS_GET_VERSION_DIRECTORY_46
SVRS_GATHER_REQUEST_FRAGS
Thanks..

Hello
I have tried with below code
DATA list_tab TYPE TABLE OF abaplist.
SUBMIT RSWBO040 USING SELECTION-SET 'TEST'
                EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY
               AND RETURN.
CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
   TABLES
     listobject = list_tab
   EXCEPTIONS
     not_found = 1
     OTHERS           = 2.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
   CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_LIST'
     TABLES
       listobject = list_tab.
ENDIF.
break-point.
Submitting the program(RSWBO040) of SE03 transaction a will result in 'CNTL_ERROR' dump.
Please try some other options
Thanks

CHaRM-Is that possible to create multiple Transport Request in UC

HI Gurus,
Quick question on ur.gent correction using Solution Manager CHaRM in EHP1. Is it possible to create multiple transport request(TR) for single ur.gent correction (UC). DO NOT confuse with transport task.
For example, after I created transport request and developer start working and release the task, realised to add another transport request for same UC. When I tried, it did not create any TR but checked the message found that
Schedule Manager: Monitor
Job Status: Processing completed, but with warnings
Program Name: /TMWFLOW/SCMA_TRORDER_CREATE
Action to be checked: Ur.gent Correction: Create Transport Request
There is already an open request, XXXXXXXXXX, for this project
So only way I can do that I released the TR and able to create another TR.
May be wondering why I need to create another TR, why not create TASK and work on that.
But this is the requirement at our company.
I will appreciate the effort and time to provide me the solution of this.
Thanks
Ava

Hi Ragu,
That's really quick turn around. Unfortunately not able to found whatever you mentioned in your message. Here is detail,
I navigate to Actions - Depending on Status, found the entry as
Trans. Type     StatProf         UserStatus     Seq     Action in SAP Change Manager
SDHF             SDHFHEAD   E0002            10       CREATE_HF
SDHF             SDHFHEAD   E0002            20       CREATE_REQ
SDHF             SDHFHEAD   E0002            30       SAVE_PARTNER
SDHF             SDHFHEAD   E0002            40       SET BO LINKS
Where SDHF - Ur.gent Correction
           E0002 - In Development
           CREATE_HF -        Create an Instance in SAP Change Manager
           CREATE_REQ -     Create Transport Request with Task
           SAVE_PARTNER - Save Partners in Respective Partner Roles
           SET BO LINKS -     Sets Links to Business Objects
I don't see any OPEN_TR.
Any other place need to make change.
Thanks

Unable to upload Transport Package in portal

Hi
Previously i have transported .epa file(Trnasport Package) from dev to acc, it worked fine there.now when iam trying to upload the same in qas portal its getting error like "could not upload file" .can any one assist me with the solution

Sekhar,
Please check the transport_logger trace (logs/transport.log) to troubleshoot transport problems.
Set the loglevels to analyze the transport problems debug in the pcdstartup.properties file for the categories pcd.tracelevel.basictransport and pcd.tracelevel.GI.Transport
Please check Note 679516: Central Note for the Transport Package Editor
Please check Note 743857: Upload issues in cluster scenarios
Please examine this file for pure UI problems like the editor does not load or an object cannot be added to a transport package. pcd_admin_tools_logger (logs/pcdadmintools.log)

Error while importing Transport Package ?

Hi,
I have created a Transport Package which includes the following things :
1. Two folders
2. Two iViews
3. one .par file
I am trying to Import the above package by choosing the option 'Source for package file - client' and then browsing where my .epa file is placed.
When i click the Upload Button I am getting the following error -
'Error extracting the package file. Check the log file for details'
What can be reason for this error?
Regards,
Vikas Khandpur

Hi Vikas
It is not generally advised to Package a .PAR file into a .EPA file. Because a .PAR file may depend on parts that are not included in the .EPA file which might cause incosistent transports.
You can directly upload a .PAR file into the Portal. Just go to System Administration -> Support -> Portal Runtime -> Administration Console and upolad the .PAR file.
Try removing the .PAR file from the Transport Package and download the exported .EPA file. Import this new file and see if it works this time.
Hope that helped

Running multiple SSIS packages using SQL Server Agent question.

I have a multitude of SSIS packages I want to run using SQL Server Agent. What would the best practice be for running these jobs using SQL Server Agent? One job per package or running all pakages from one job? If you have an answer can
you explain the technical reasoning behind your answer? Thanks in advance.
Stan Benner

Hi, maybe a bit more analysis will give a better answer
Do all the packages have to run in sequence? (if yes, single job better)
Can the list of packages to be executed be grouped by dependency (ex package 1,2 and 5 must run in sequence and can be executed by one job, while package 3,4 are not dependent on package 1,2 and 5 can be run by a separate job).
Can any jobs be run in parallel?
How often will the package execution sequence change?
How will you deploy your packages and job? (the more jobs to create the more install script needed and upgrade scenarios become messy).
My personal preference:
I create ONE ssis package which is executed by ONE sql agent job. lets call this 'PackageExecutionWrapper.dtsx'
PackageExectionWrapper then contains multiple 'Execute Package' tasks for the packages you want to execute.
In the package you can apply any package execution rules - which packages have to run after the other, which packages can run concurrently, which packages should only run if previous succeeded.
If you need to change the sequence, simple, just update the PackageExecutionWrapper package.

Portal Run time error when created a seperate role for Transport package.

Hi Experts,
I have created a seperate role for Transport Package(import/export iviews).
Normally we have transport package functionality in system admin.
Below steps i followed for creating the new role(trans admin)
1.Copied SAP provided system admin role to a seperate folder.
2.Deleted reamining portal objects(like UWL, portal display etc ..) except transport packege workset.
3.Renamed the role to trans admin.
I have assigned that role to my self, it is working fine to me when i clcik on export and import.I have super admin role.
when i assign this role to some portal users, Export is not working.
when user clicks on Export role they are getting below error.
Portal Runtime Error

Returnable transport packaging for Subcontracting material

Dear All,
I have a doubt regarding a new process to be followed in our company. We need to issue raw material to our subcontractor for processing. We also intend to send packaging material to the subcontractor along with the raw material. Ie We are sending the raw material to the subcontractor along with the packaging material ( say, in boxes).
I would like to know how to address this issue.
What We tried
Standard SAP is allowing the vendor's Packaging material to be "received" from the vendor when we Purchase material from the vendor using movement type 501 'M'. After this, we are able to see this as a "special stock" as RTP ( Returnable Transport Packaging ) in T code MMBE. After this we can issue the packaging material back to the vendor using movement type 502 'M' . There is also a provision to send " our" packaging material to a customer through a Sale order, and receive it back from them.
But is there any standard process for sending "our" packaging to a subcontractor and receiving it back from them ?
We also tried including the packaging material in BOM, and sending it through 541 movement but in this case, when we perform Goods receipt ( 101 movement of the parent material ), the packaging material gets consumed, which should not happen. We want them back in stock.
We also tried using the option "Non - Ordered item" for the packaging material while performing Goods Receipt of the parent material. But this would increase the stock of the packaging material without us even issuing the same to the vendor initially. ie More stock will be there than is actually present.
So how else do we address this issue ?
Regards,
Velu

Hi Velu,
This scenario can be automated as well in BOM.
While maintaining the BOM for the subcontracting material, include the packaging component as twice, but one with negative quantity. PFB screen shot.
Also turn of the costing relevancy indicator and maintain material provision indicator as "K"(customer material) for both the line item.
So while doing GR for the sub contracting, system post automatically 543 and 545. Hope this is useful, if it is so, your rewards are awaited .
Regards,
Chinna
