SCSM 2012 R2 Portal - Publishing Service Request and Change Request.

Dears,
Sorry for this questions, it is very basic.
I want links on how to create below things:
Create Cataloge about Services we provide such: Create VM, Delete VM, Create User and Mailbox, Add user to group
How to publish this request to Portal
Create Change request approval flow such: approve creating user and mailbox
How to publish above change request
Thanks

In addition to Thomas and regarding your assumption "I am not sure if the books help on this points":
In the
Microsoft System Center 2012 Cookbook in the chapter 5 starting on page 148 the detailed steps "how to create a request offering for a new user request" are described.
Each recipe in this chapter describes how to setup a request offering with all related components to get this done.
The recipes you need in this chapter are:
Creating Service Request templates, page 148
Creating Service Request activities, page 151
Creating Service Offering categories, page 157
Creating Service Catalog Request offerings, page 159
Creating Service Catalog Service offerings, page 167
Publishing Service offerings and Request offerings, page 176
Working with Service Requests in the portal, page 183
Creating Service Request notifications, page 187
There is only one minor mistake in this chapter on page 153:
"Unanimous (only one reviewer
needs to approve)" -> it must be "Unanimous
(all reviewers
must approve)"
I am pretty sure the recipes will work because I wrote the chapter. And sorry for the mistake on page 153! ;-)

Difference between task request and change request

What is the difference between task request and change request during sap implementation. In general how many tasks will generate during a normal company inmplementation by any functional consultant?

Hi,
Change request and task request are same.But generally change request is generated during newly created objects or reports that are transported and task request is used when u regenerate the change request by modifying that object again and transporting it in new change request.
A particular change request may contain multiple number of task request but that number depends upon number of objects u transfer during generation and transportation.
Pls do reward points if ans is useful.

How to give authorisation to create and change request?

How to give authorisation to create and change request? Which T Code is needed to create request and change request?
Rajkumar.

Hi,
For creating/changing/displaying change requests, you need to give access for SE01, SE09/SE10.
You needn't give access to transaction SE03 to all users, only super users should have that access from security point of view.

SCSM 2012 R2 Portal Installation is not able to detect SharePoint SQL Instance

Dears,
as in the subject I am trying to Install SCSM 2012 R2 Portal, I have done with prerequisites, and I have got the SharePoint from this link:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24983
I have done with SharePoint successfully, SharePoint installed Parts are:
When I am trying to install SCSM 2012 R2 Portal, it fail to detect SQL with below message:
So please how to solve this issue?

If you run the installation of SQL Server via Sharepoint 2010 Foundation preparation tool it should be SQL Server 2008 Express with SP1.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc288751(v=office.14).aspx
The preparation tool installs the following prerequisites:
SQL Server 2008 Express with SP1
So this could be the reason why the SCSM SSP installation wizard is struggeling with the SQL Server.
You should check the installed SQL Server version on the server. If needed install a supported version of SQL Server.
Andreas Baumgarten | H&D International Group
Well, this is the reason, unsupported SQL Version.
I upgrade it to SQL 2008 R2 SP1 Express, and it is working now,
Many thanks

Difference between customizing request and workbench request?

Hi ,
What is the difference between customizing request and workbench request?
please reply.........

HI,
Workbench Requests
When you change a Repository object of the ABAP Workbench, a query window appears in which you need to specify a Workbench request. You can only save the changes if you have assigned the object to a change request.
Workbench requests and the tasks assigned to them are normally used to record changes to Repository objects and Customizing for all clients. However, you can also include client-specific Customizing.
Whether the changes to Repository objects are transported depends on whether a transport route is defined from the current SAP System for the package of these objects. From the system settings, the system automatically determines whether the change requests are transportable and to which target system they should be transported.
Customizing requests
Customizing requests record client-specific Customizing settings made in a single client (the source client of the request).
Automatic recording of configuration activities in the Customizing work for a client can be activated or deactivated for each client with Client Control. If automatic recording is active, a query window appears when you change Customizing settings, asking you to specify a Customizing request.
Whether Customizing requests are transported or not, does not depend on the objects entered, as is the case with Workbench change requests. The Customizing requests in an SAP System (or in a client if you use Extended Transport Control) are either all transportable or all local, depending on the system setting. The system uses the standard transport layer to determine automatically whether the change requests are transportable and to which target system they should be transported. However, you can change this manually.

Difference between workbench request and customizing request in transport

Hi Experts,
I am new to SAP BI7 work. i am having basic doubt in Transort request creations
ususally we create the requests to transport the objects from Development system to further systems.
can anyone please clarify me, what is the main defference between the Workbench request and Customizing request.
Thanks and Regards
Mrudula

Hi ,
The Transport Organiser maintains Change Requests.These requests record the changes made to the repository and customizing objects.Based on that objects changed they are
1)WorkBench Request & 2) Customizing Request.
Workbench Requests are those that involve changes to cross-client Customising and Repository Objects. The objects are independent of the client.Hence the requests are used for transferring and transporting changed Repository objects and changed system settings from cross-client tables.
Customizing Requests involve changes recorded to client-specific Customizing objects .These client specific requests are used for copying and transporting changed system settings from client-specific tables.

Confirmation of Support notification and Change request.

Hi Guru's,
In my clinets landscape we are using ChaRM for Change requests and Urgent correction. We have two situation here to handle.
1. I (Change Manager) should only be able to confirm a support notification if all the dependent/subsequent change requests have been confirmed
2. I (Change Manger) should only be able to confirm a change request if all the dependent/subsequent urgent corrections have been confirmed.
Request your help.
Vinod

Hi,
you can customize that your change request will automatically get a new status if the linked urgent correction reached a specific satus.
You can then do the same with support message and change request. This will lead to a chain where your support message is confirmed automatically if your urgent correction is confirmed.
Check SPRO - Make Setting for Change Transaction Types - Assign Actions "SET_PREDOC"

Configuring BW to Report Change Requests and Change Documents

We upgraded to Solution Manager 4.0 on DB2 and need to extract the Change Request and Change Document tables to BW for reporting. We know that there is an internal Transaction Monitor, but we need to also report using BEx Analyzer for users who will not log into Solution Manager.
We found one table CRMD_ORDERADM_H for some Change Request fields, but cannot find the tables for the rest. Does someone know the tables where these fields reside? Thank you.

What is meant by change pointer and change request

hi,
what is meant by change pointer and change request in sap r3
plz can u any one notes or link on this , or if possible briefly tell about this..
i am looking for clear idea on this..
thanks
Ruban

With respect to Dictionary Change pointers means all the changes done to dictionary objects.
All the change logs with respect to tables are stored in CDHDR and CDPOS table
Change Pointers in broad sense are used with respect to IDOC
Change Pointers & Reduction of IDOCs.
Applications, which write change documents, will also try to write change
pointers for ALE operations. These are log entries to remember all modified
data records relevant for ALE.
Following Steps must be followed in case of Change Pointer.
1) Goto Transaction BD60.
Note down the Details of the Message Type for which change pointer has to activate. Details like Function Module, Classification Object, ALE object Type etc.
E.g. ZDEBP3
2) Next step is goto transaction BD53
Click on change button.
First select the segment for which the fields has to modified (either remove or
add ).
It will show the fields in a pop-up window where the user can select, deselect the respective fields.
Save the settings for the Message type. Dont forget to activate the change pointers by clicking Activate Change pointers button on the main screen.
3) Once the activation is done system will reset the settings for the Message type in Change pointers (BD60). Maintained the old settings for the Message type.
Check this FAQ
. Do you really need change pointers?
You need change pointers to distribute changes with the ALE SMD tool. If you do not use this tool, you do not need to write change pointers.
You can deactivate change pointers and activate them again with the transaction BD61.
2. Do you really need to activate change pointers for this messages type?
If some messages types are no longer to be distributed by change pointers, you can deactivate change pointers for this messages type.
You can deactivate change pointers for the message type
and reactivate them again.
For reduced message types, deactivate the change pointer with the
Reduction tool (transaction BD53).
3. Are there still too many change pointers to be processed?
The change pointers are analyzed with the transaction BD21 or the report RBDMIDOC in ALE and flagged as processed. If the change pointers are created periodically, this report should also run periodically.
4. Are no longer required change pointers reorganized in time?
The report RBDCPCLR (transaction BD22) to reorganize the change pointer should run periodically. Depending on how many change pointers are created or processed, you can schedule the background job hourly, daily or weekly. You should delete all obsolete and processed change pointers. You can also use this report for specified message types.
We come across change pointer technique while dealing with master data distribution thru ALE/IDOCs
When we want to reflect changes made to master data(i.e customer master, vendor master, material master ...) visible to other clients listed in customer distribution model, we follow change pointer technique.
What is customer distribution model?
A customer model depicts various messages (master data, transactional data) exchanged between the systems and establishes a sender and receiver of data
A customer model is always maintained on any system for the entire distributed network of SAP systems, so it must be distributed to various systems in the distributed network.
These r some details regarding change pointer technique which u may find it usefull.............
The change pointers technique is based on the change document technique, which tracks changes made to key documents in SAP, such as the material master, customer master, vendor master & sales orders. changes made to a document are recorded in the change document header table CHDHR, and additional change pointers are written in the BDCP table for changes relevant to ALE. BDCPS table stores the status of changed documents processed or not.
The process for distributing master data using change pointers involves the following steps.
The application writes change documents. SAP maintains change documents for
several objects in the system, such as materials, customers, invoices, and bank data, to provide an audit trail for changes made to an object. A change document object represents a set of tables for which changes are recorded. For example, the change document for the material master is named MATERIAL and it contains the various tables of the material master object, such as MARA and MARC.
When an application transaction makes changes to an object, the application writes change documents, which are stored in the CDHDR and CDPOS tables for each change made to an object.
Tip
Execute transaction SCDO to see a list of change document objects and
their tables.
The SMD (Shared Master Data) tool writes change pointers. When changes are made to an object, the SMD tool checks the ALE settings and consults the ALE distribution model to determine whether a receiver is interested in the object that was changed. If the system finds an appropriate receiver, the system creates change pointers in the BDCP table that point to change documents in the CDHDR table.
The ALE programs analyze change pointers and generate IDocs. SAP provides
standard function modules that read the change pointer table and generate IDocs for the objects that were changed. These programs are designed to ignore multiple changes and create only one IDoc. For example, if a material is changed four times before the function module is invoked, only one IDoc with the latest data from the material master data is created. The function modules are invoked by a standard report, RBDMIDOC. The selection parameters of this report allow you to specify the message type for which change pointers are to be analyzed. Configuration
you must carry out the following configuration steps to enable master data
distribution based on changes to the object.
Step 1: Enable Change Pointers Globally
Transaction: BD61
This option enables the change pointer process globally. Make sure that the flag is checked.
Step 2 :Enable Change Pointers for a Message Type
Transaction: BD50
This setting is required for activating change pointers for a specific message type.
make sure that the Active flag is checked for your message type.
Step 3 :Specify the Fields for Which Change Pointers Are to Be Written
Transaction: BD52
For standard master data objects such as the material, customer, and vendor objects, SAP already provides a list of fields for which change pointers are written. If you are satisfied with the standard set of fields, you can skip this step. If you want to add new fields, you must add entries for the required fields. If you are not interested in IDocs being generated for changes to a particular field, you can remove it from the list. For example, if you do not want to distribute the
material master for changes made to the Catalog Profile (RBNRM) field, you can delete this entry from the table.
Step 4: Changing a Field in the Master Data
Change a field in the master data object for which the change pointer is enabled. For example, if you change the net weight of a material in the material master data, a change pointer is written.
Tip : You can verify a change document and change pointer by viewing entries in
tables CDHDR and BDCP, respectively.
Step 5 :Executing Program RBDMIDOC to Process Change Pointers
Execute program RBDMIDOC to initiate the process of generating an IDoc. On the selection screen, specify the message type. For example, you can specify MATMAS. After you execute the process, it displays the number of entries processed.
Note :
Normally, you schedule this program to run frequently and start IDoc
generation for different message types.
Step 6 : View the idocs in WE02/05

Transports and Change Request

Hi Gurus-
Can some one tell me a simple scenario including following terms. I needed this as I am unable to picture everything together when I read documentation about these.
1. Transports
2. Change Request
3. Task
4. Package (Transportable)
5. Creating a Change Request (who will do this normally, as a developer how do I get this)
6. Releasing Change Request
7. Collecting Objects
Plese take a simple scenario like adding KF to a infoCube or changing a report.
Thanks in advace, points will be awarded.

Please see my comments below.
1. Transports
Generally used to transport changes from development to QA to Production. Direct changes in Production is not advisable. Hence we make use of this tool.
2. Change Request
A change request/transport request stores all the objects you are changing and assigning them to this request. Any further changes to these objects will automatically be captured in this request.
3. Task
Generally, when a second user changes the same object which is captured in a request, a task is created under that request. However, when you release request, the final change gets transported. You need to release task before releasing a request.
4. Package (Transportable)
You define a group of objects as package just for identification purpose. For example, for workbench objects like cubes, I/O, ODS, you define workbench package. Whenever you are using transport connection from rsa1, and capture the objects in a request, you must assign each and every object to a particular package. There is no hard and fast rule of define packages. It is just for identification purpose.
5. Creating a Change Request (who will do this normally, as a developer how do I get this)
Generally, you as a developer should do this. Whenever you are making some change to an object and activating it, it will ask for a transport request. Otherwise, you can also drag and drop individual objects and select them and transport using transport connection tab in RSA1.
You can see the transport requests that you have created in transaction se09 or se10.
6. Releasing Change Request
Right click the request in se10 and click release.
7. Collecting Objects
You need to collect in target server. Generally, in most of the places, this process is automized with a workflow. you don't need to take care of this.
Hope this helps(something different from the things available in documentation).

anup

Diffenence between task and change request

What is the difference between task and change request? Is it possible to release a change request without releasing a task?

Tasks are a level under the change request. You can have multiple tasks under each change request. You can release a task without releasing the change request, but not vice versa.
