Objects not included in a transport !!

HI,
I create 10 objects. Include all of them in say 5 different requests. I delete 5 objects from these requests (just from the request).
How can I find out the list of objects in the system which do not have an associated transport request !! This wil help me to analyze whether they r really not needed and can be deletd physically alltogether or they are deleted by mistake from the transport !!
thks

Hello
To be honest your requirements are somewhat weird. Why?
Example1: You create a new object from scratch resulting in an entry in the transport request. You realize that this object is obsolete and you delete it again. The entry in the transport request still remains.
Example2: You change an existing object resulting in an entry in the transport request (the object is fully functional in the productive environment). You realize that the change was wrong. You undo the changes and delete the entry from the transport request.
Conclusions:
1) Entry in transport request exists but not the corresponding object -> deleted by mistake??? NO.
2) No entry in transport request but object exists -> obsolete object ??? NO.
If you want to find out which objects are currently locked in transport requests then you should have a look at DB table TLOCK.
As long as an existing object is part of a changeable transport request you should find a lock entry there.

Which version of an object is included in a transport request

Hi experts,
I have one doubt regarding the transport requests and the object versions included in it.
We've found in one development that there are differences between the development system and the productive system and all the transport requests, which include this object, have been transported to production.
The transport requests were transported in the following sequence:
Order number    Date            Time
1. D01K904477 29.03.2007 17:41:52
2. D01K904511 30.03.2007 17:21:54
3. D01K904425 30.03.2007 17:51:36
The last order transported contains a previous version of the object.
From my own experience in other projects I'm not sure whether the transport system it's well configured or not. I have the idea that the transport requests always include the last version of the object transported. Probably, it depends on the transport routes... But I'm not sure.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thank you for your answer Juan.
This is clear. But my doubt is not solved yet.
I'm referring to the versions included in an older transport request.
In our system If we transport a previous transport request to production, the latest version of the object is overwritten.
E.g.:
TR 1    Date: 01/01/2007 (DD/MM/YYYY) First version of the program
TR 2    Date: 01/03/2007 (DD/MM/YYYY) Second version of the program
1. We transport TR 1 to production.
2. We transport TR 2 to production. We have the last version of the program in production.
3. If we create transport request TR 3 and we include the object in this TR, this TR will include the active version of the object.
4. If we transport TR 1 to production, latest version is overwritten. <b><<<< This happens in our system.</b>
We don't know if this is happenning due to the transport routes configuration.
Thanks in advance.

Object not added to the Transport Request

Hi,
We have a z-tcode thats a replica of SPAD for creating printers.
Once the printer is created, a prompt asks for creating a new Transport request(TR in short) and once the TR gets created, the printer finally gets attached to this TR.
This tcode works fine in 4.6 version. But not in ECC6.0 version.
In ECC6.0, the TR gets created and the printer too is created but its not attached to the TR.
I checked the codes in both the versions but could not find any difference between them.
One thing I noticed that the statement CALL transaction... within one of the sub routines(that adds the printer to the TR) has a parameter for message and it doesnot get populated with any entries,
while it does in 4.6 version.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Binay.

Hi,
In debug mode try passing the same message & check whether it works.
if yes, then you may hardcode the same.

Objects did not added to the transport request

Hi team
Pls advise, I've been trying to create a transport for some workschedules in client DDD.
But although I've created a transport and saved it, when I look at the transport or task, there's no objects saved in it. For the other clients BBB, CCC, when I do the same process, I would see the table T552a in the transport task and the list of entries generated. But in client DDD, it is always blank.
Can you please tell me how to investigate this issue.
Regards
Bhaskar
Edited by: bhaskar1818 on Dec 10, 2008 10:04 AM

You can manually add the object into that transport request number. Login into client DDD and go to SE01 -- Select the request-- go to Request/Task- object list - include objects- freely select object.
The reason could be behind this that transport request has been not allowed for the client DDD, if i understand correctly the problem

View object SponsorVwView does not include a primary key attribute RowId

Hi,
I have an Entity Object and a View Object which do not have a primary key. So I use a ROWID to act as one. The only thing is that sometimes I get this error which causes the application to fail on the server:
JBO-30003: The application pool (gov.fda.cber.pts.model.services.CberPtsServiceLocal) failed to checkout an application module due to the following exception:
oracle.jbo.JboException: JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.JboException, msg=JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.PersistenceException, msg=JBO-26028: View object SponsorVwView does not include a primary key attribute RowId of entity base SponsorVw.
Does anyone have any any ideas on this?
Thank you in advance

Hi...
I believe you'll need a PK so Oracle will know how to update the MV. Is there any particular reason for you not having a PK in FAFG_ASSETS table? As an alternative, you may want to create a new column in this table and having a table trigger/sequence populating this column.
But It looks like you are using EBS, so, I don't know if you can add new columns to tables.
See if this thread can help you:

Hi Supriatna,
In the same screen where you have been 'Search for Objects in Requests/Tasks' place your cursor in one of the empty fields (the second column, eg. PROG) and look up for XLWB. You have increase the number of displayed entries in the look up screen to atleast 1000 to find the R3TR XLWB entry (Excel workbook entry).
Hope this helps.

[Transport transformation]: Object not found in Transport Connection.

Dear All,,
Would you like kindly help me please .. ???
I have transformation in development that's going to be trasnported to Production.
But somehow, when i go to transport connection, i couldn't find the object there.
The tranformation that i can't see, the transformation that link between datasource and info source. But transformation linking Info source to info provider can be found.
I've already done:
1. Reactivate the object ( i edit, and i activate it).
2. Logging off the system, and log on again.
But for those techniques, i'm still unable to find the object in transport connection .
Could you help me please ??
Is it caused authorization ?? If yes, what authorization made me unable to see it .. ??
Best regards,
Daniel N.

HI
Recheck your Collection of Object at Transport Request , Make sure that you have selected before / after DS because you can only see After Info Source ..
Recollect the objects at Source system and transport them to Target System again Properly.

How to include an INCLUDE into a Transport Request

Hi Experts
Requirement is to add an INCLUDE program object (which is not part of any other request) into a Transport Request. I followed the below steps:
SE01 -> Entered TR# -> Display -> Request/Task -> Object List -> Include Objects.
In the selection screen of "freely selected objects",
selected objects -> Program = LZ123T00 (which I need to include).
Then, Execute!
It shows: No objects were selected!
How to fix this error?
Regds

Hi Varun
thx for ur reply. I tried this. it seems the INCLUDE alone cannot be written into the TR.
it says: "Cannot be added. The object is part of some system object"
If we add the whole Function Group to the TR, will it help? Will the TR hold all the associated INCLUDEs declared in this Function Group?
plz advise.

Changes not saved in any transport...

Hi,
This is a basic question and I tried to search in the forum and google but could not find any answers. Help is appreciated.
There is an existing message mapping in PI 7.1 and I changed the assignment of two nodes. I saved and activated the change list.
But there was no prompt for a transport !! So my question is how and where will my change be saved in the DEV system which will then be transported to QA.
Any settings to be done by the BASIS / ADMIN ? Pl advise.
thnks

Hi,
I think I have done it correctly but its a bit different from what you are saying...
From Tools menu I chose Export Design objects and then it chose the S/w component that I was
modifying and There were 2 modes, Transport using CTS and Transport using file system and I chose CTS.
In next step of the wizard I chose " All objects of the SW component...." and then in next it created
me a transport request and then it was done. I could see a preview of the different objects
that were included in that transport.
I could see this transprt created thru menu option, Tools --> Open CTS...
Is that all ?? So once I am done and release this transport, it will be movied to QA right ?
Just want to make sure I dont mess up the existing set up !!
thanks

Hello All,
I am printing a report with all sale order details and Quantities( delveered ,conformed etc..) iam doing subtotals based on the material and Plant.
In this if the document date is less than the SY-DATUM, we should not include the quantity into the subtotals and totals, Only the orders wiht doc date GQ to Sy-datum then display them..
As of now I am using ALV grid display and doing the sums by
l_wa_fcat-do_sum = c_x. (field catalog) for the whole colom) but i want to avoid sum row from tehe calculation based on the condition.
<b>Do we have any way to achive this, like if we want to have separate color for a purticular Cell then we add an extra field in outout table and we link this field with layout-coltab_fieldname in the same way or any other way if we have</b>.
I will be thankfull to if you can provide me your valuable suggesstions on this. it is very urgent. I am trying in all the ways from my side.

How to find out in which role an authority object is included

Hi,
I need to call web services by an external application. Therefore the authorization object S_SERVICE is needed to call services.
Now I want to add this object to a specific sap user, but how can I find out in which role this object is included? I don't want to create a new role for just only this standard SAP authority object.
Thank you!

Now that you have required role with you .. simple assign that role to user id from transaction SU01 (Roles tabs).
Sap standard roles will already have profile in it. You might have to generate the profile. Goto transaction PFCG enter role name hit display button , goto Authorisation tab, hit Display Authorisation button and on next screen press generate button (Shift+f5).
By the way you can use SUIM to find role and profile for given authority object

The content menu in my Acrobat X Standard does not include the "multimedia" selection??

What am I missing? The Adobe Classroom In A Book clearly refers to it...

Hi,
I am sorry to hear that you're having trouble in locating 'Multimedia' tools in Acrobat.
Acrobat X Standard does not include most of the interactive object tools. You need to use Acrobat X Pro for those features. Kindly check the comparison matrix at:

Export to PDF in CS4 does not include TrueType glyphs

I created a Indesign CS4 document with Times (a Mac OS system font), inserted some glyphs such as 1/2 or 1/4, and exported it as a PDF. The glyphs however are not rendered properly - they appear as boxes.
If I print the file to my printer or print to a PDF, the qlyphs are included. Opentype fonts seem to be OK. I've also confirmed in Acrobat, that I can use the touch up tool to add the glyphs again, but clearly, this is not a desirable solution. This is not a problem in either Illustrator or Photoshop. This is also not a problem with Indesign CS3 which I still have on my system.
I think this started just after the Indesign Update 6.0.1 update, though I can't be certain.
Any ideas?

Same problem - but thanks for the idea. It's curious that when I use the touch text tool to change the properties, Acrobat "knows" the correct characters. I can select the characters, change the font, change it back to the original font and all is OK. I though Acrobat used some Illustrator libraries to do the touch up, but i I open the PDF in Illustrator, the bad characters get rendered as object - not text.
I guess it's time find a way to easily avoid the dfonts. Problem is dfonts show up as TrueType in the font selection menu. The only way I know to see for sure that it is a dfont is to look at its extension in finder.
I'm not real keen on using dfonts - I was archiving some old InDesign files as PDFs when I ran across the problem. It's kind of a pain to have to chase the font types/conversions through so many layers. Sigh.
