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,

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.

Removing a corection from a maintenance cycle

Good Day;
I am trying to figure out how to remove a "correction" from a maintenance cycle. There is a transport assigned to the correction.
We are currently on support stack 17
Thanks all
Regards
Don Newton

Thanks Sanjai;
This part works well except that that any transports have remained in the maintenance cycle.
Not a big problem as I can use SE10 to remove the transport from the maintenance cycle as long as it is in u201Cmodifiableu201D status.
Thanks again Sanjai

Multiple system maintenance cycles are not shown in pop up for selection

Hi,
In change manager, when we create a change document from a change request, we dont get a pop up for selection of maintenance cycles with multiple systems in it.
The change document is getting created by taking the only available maintenance cycle with only that system.
Is there any configuration for this?
Regards,
Dipti Sawarkar.

Hi Christian,
Thanks for your reply.
I know the pop up will come only when there is more than one maintenance cycles for that production system.
I have done configuration for Normal correction.( SDMJ) and customized it (ZDMJ).
When I try to create a CD* from CR* for a particular production system ( CCP) , it just takes up a maintenance cycle for CCP system and doesnt show up any pop for selection of maint cycles whereas I have created 5 maintenance cycles for this system CCP.
The other 4 maintenance cycles have multiple landscapes (CCP and EAP )in it whereas this one (which gets selected by default) just has CCP landscape in it.
The strange part is that when I try to create a stand alone CD ( without CR ) , it will give that pop up showing all 5 maint cycles. But this is not happening when I create a CD from a CR.
I have never done/ seen configuration for the pop up of selecting maint cycles in ChaRM.
Looking forward to ur help,
( *CD - Change Document and * CR - Change Request)

Dipti Sawarkar.

Error "No maintenance cycle is open for the current system"

Hi,
I'm setting up the ChaRM for test purposes.
I have done everything according to SAP Expert Guided session requirements (like Basic configuration, Landscape and TSMS set-up) and also was reading and checking the following Blog " Change Request Management scenario: Working examples"
/people/dolores.correa/blog/2009/07/23/change-request-management-scenario-working-examples
Everything seems to be ok:
1) Landscape ok, IBase created and active, Partners assigned to each component
2) Maintenance project created and Maintenance cycle set to "Development with release"
3) I can easily create Change request (I tried Normal correction), approve it.
4) When I open Change Document for approved change reques - it gives error "No maintenance cycle is open for the current system" and I can't proceed with setting Change document status to "In development".
In Change Request I indicate the only IBase (1) and as Component - SolMan clent 803, whish is set-up like PRD.
What could be wrong?
I tried reading all threads but did not get solution - there were suggestions to activate maintenance cycle (in my case it active), to check if business partners are assigned to IBase components (in my case done),
What else?
Thanks in advance,
Ausra Gustainiene

ChaRM: new challenge with maintenance cycle

Dear colleagues,
I have got the following messages for transaction 8157 SDMJ (created from 8156 SDCR):
Header Data No maintenance cycle is open for the current system
Item 1 The item category 'SRVP' is not permitted for product 'SUPPORT_HOTLINE'.
My questions are:
1) Is the product maintenance obligatory for ChaRM?
2) how to detour these errors?
Regards,
Artem Ivashkin

Mainly this errors occurs due to locked maintenance cycle so goto solar_project_admin and then unlock by right click on the top or it may be due to wrong ibase other ,possible reasons are
- The IBase is wrong: The IBase/component must represent the production system in the project landscape.
- Lack of authorizations: Assign role "SAP_SOCM_ADMIN" or "SAP_CM_ADMINISTRATOR_COMP" (or equivalent) to the user who would like to approve the change request.
- Project is locked in table /TMWFLOW/PROJMAP: If an error is detected during the processing, then the project might be locked in this table. The customer can unlock it by pressing the refresh button under tab "System Landscape" -> "Change Requests". If there are other error messages shown during the refresh process, the customer must fix those errors beforehand.
P.S. The 'Check' button under tab 'Change Requests' (the same as transaction /TMWFLOW/CHARMCHK) will only do the checking. On the other hand, the 'Refresh' button will do the checking and update the relevant database entries.

SDTM Maintenance cycle - little help needed

Hi all
I am following the blogs of Dolores Correa (thank you for the blogs) and I have become a little stuck - I am hoping you can help me out.
I have created an SDTM (test message) during my Test Phase. In the blog there is a way to assign the project for the test phase (and therefore the MC) - I cannot find where to do this, how do I assign my test message to the correct maintenance cycle?
Many thanks
Marina

Perhaps I am thinking this is more complicated than it is .... if I only have 1 maintenance cycle does the test message get automatically assigned to that maintenance cycle? and only if I have multiple maintenance cycles do I have to assign a cycle??
I guess that there is also no way to have a test message associated with a particular change request - that would be helpful because then the developer would know what the test message is in relation to, but I can't see a way of connecting a SDTM to a SDMJ.
Any ideas or musings are welcome

Moving a transport into a maintenance cycle

Hello All
I am doing some testing moving transports out of a maintenance cycle.
It appears that I can move a transport out of a maintenance cycle if it modifiable or released. What I am not able to do is move a transport into a maintenance cycle. It appears this might be a security (Role) thingy
The message I get is:
You cannot assign any requests to project
Message no. CTSPRJ043
Diagnosis
You want to create a request in project SB1_P00013, or assign an existing request to this project. However, you are not currently allowed to use this function for this project.
Anyone have any ideas
Regards
Don Newton

Good Day Srinivasa.
I am really trying to do 2 things.
1) In the current maintenance cycle there is work that was started (transport created through Change Request Management). It was requested that the work be completed in a future Maintenance cycle.
I want to (1) remove the transport from the current maintenance cycle and then (2) add the transport to a future (open) maintenance cycle.
2) There are transports that have been created outside Change Request Management and I want to move these into the current maintenance cycle.
Currently I am able to remove the transport from a maintenance cycle by using SE10, utilities, reorganize, u201Cdelete project assignmentu201D. What does not work is u201CAssign to a Projectu201D. When I try this I get the message u201Cyou can not assign any request to project SB1_P00015u201D.
I hope this gives you a better understanding of what I am trying to do.
As far as the SAP Tutor file, you could try to send it to me via the e-mail address that is on my profile.
Thanks again Srinivasa.
Regards
Don Newton

Moving Change requests to new Maintenance cycle after approval

Good Day
I was wondering, is there an easy way to move any give change request from one maintenance cycle to another one. An example would be.
I have a change request that currently has 1 ABAP, 1 Config and 1 Security transport assigned to our current maintenance cycle. I have been requested to move the change request (along with all the transports) to a future maintenance cycle.
Is it just a case of re-assigning the change request to the future cycle, ?
Regards
Don Newton

Hi Don,
It's a very interesting question... I think that a lot of people here need this functionality and SAP finally hear that from us.
This new functionality came with SP15. You should have a look to SAP notes 1071412, 1134993 and 1141086, it may help you to solve your problem.

Stéphane.

IW21 Retrieving the maintenance cycle text while creation of work order

Hi Experts,
My requirement is to display the maintenance cycle text on the print preview while creating a work order via transaction IW21.
Since the print preview is clicked before saving the work order, the data from the work order has not been updated in the database tables (AFVC, PLWP).
Hence, the maintenance cycle text will have to be accessed through a runtime structure.
The text has to be fetched in a subroutine program which is called from the SAPscript.
I tried accessing the global data while debugging. However, the maintenance cycle text does not seem to be present.
Please help.
Regards,
Anusha

It is inappropriate to produce a SAPScript prior to save, IMHO. What prevents the user from changing something after the print preview was done in this case?
At any rate, you'll find that some data values, like document numbers, etc., are not set until the user has saved the document. The document needs to be saved, and SAPScript generated at the end of that process.

How to include JAVA work in a maintenance cycle

Good Day;
Would anyone know where I can find documentation on how to include JAVA changes in a Solution Manager / ChaRM maintenance cycle?
I understand that a transport can be created for JAVA work.
Thanks All
Regards
Don Newton

You will first need CTS+ configured to create the java transport. Check this out for portal..
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/90d3b550-b6fb-2910-0fa5-ece5d61fb9c3
Once that is configured and assuming you have Charm configured, I believe it's as easy as adding the system to your project.

Table for maintenance plan and maintenance cycle and Unit

Hello,
I need to know the table where the values are stored for maintenance plan, maintenance cycle and Unit.
I know that we can get the maintenance cycle and unit from MMPT table.
Question 1
If the maintenance plan has only a single cycle then the data is stored in above table MMPT, but if a maintenance plan has mutiple cycles like 1 maintenance plan has maintenance cycle as 364 Days and 1092 days then the data is not stored in MMPt table.
Question 2
Requirement is I need to develop a report where in I need maintenance order, maintenance plan and the relevant maintenance cycle and unit. Supose an maintenance order is created for the above maintenance plan which has 2 maintenance cycle how can I identify for which maintenance cycle the order is created.

Narendra

No maintenance cycle is open for the current system

Hello!
I have problems to use CharM functionality due to following error:
<b>No maintenance cycle is open for the current system</b>
The error arises when I try to set a urgent correction in status "In Development" I get the following error, menwhile I have an valid maintenance cycle active.
I use CharM functionality for the solution consisting of an single system with two clients:
SRM:000 (as DEV-system) (system role: source system)
SRM:100 (as PRD-system) (system role: target system)
- No maintenance cycle is open for the current system (meanwhile I have a valid maintenance cycle created and activated).
Futhermore I get the additional warning:
IBase component is not a productive system in system lanscape
Can some help me with this issue?
Thank you very much!
regards
Thom

Hello Kriti,
thank you very much for your response.
Unfortunately I also thought about it.
Basically my CharM procedure looks as follows.
I send the message from productive client (I have only one system with client 000 and 100) to Service Desk in SOLMAN.
There I can see the IBase of the productive client.
Then I create a urgent correction by assigning IBase to this IBase of productive client. It is also possible to change the IBase in change mode, so I have tried all the possible values of IBase and get the same error.
My problem also is that I have multiple values of IBase assigmenets, it means one system has multiple assigments to IBase components.
I do not know how to delete/cut these settings....
Thank you for your further help!
regards
Thom

Need to close maintenance cycles to apply EhP1?

Hello,
We are planning to install EhP1 for SolMan, we are currently running SP17. I've looked through the install guide, but I am still not sure if we need to close all existing Maintenance Cycles and corrections before the upgrade, or if the existing cycles will not be affected.
Can anyone shed some light on this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Michele

We are using ChaRM in our SolMan production system to manage changes to our other SAP systems, so we have numerous maintenance cycles open and ZDCR corrections being created and worked on.
When EhP1 for Solman is installed in production, will it mess up any of these maintenance cycles or ZDCR corrections? Or will these continue to work? We don't want to stop our support for our other SAP systems for this enhancement pack.
Thanks,
Michele
P.S. - It's really hard to talk about SDCR/ZDCR corrections when their name is banned from the forums.

Solution Manager - Import buffer and duplicate imports in maintenance cycle

Hello,
I am trying to understand how Normal and Urgent Correction work in a maintenance cycles.
I am using SOLMAN 4.0 and I would like to know how the import buffers are managed.
When I have completed a maintenance cycle and all my transport request have been imported in the production system, I want to switch the status of the maintenance cycle back to development in order to complete my previous open normal corrections. I have read in many places that if I act in this way, not only my new corrections but all the old correction will be imported in the quality and production systems because the import buffers do not get empty.
For example, If I decide to have 10 normal corrections but eventually only 9 corrections are imported in quality and production systems, when I switch back to development and I complete the 10th correction, this correction will be imported together with the other 9 corrections or this will be imported alone since the other nine correction have been imported before?
How it works?
I appreciate suggestions.
Thanks
Antonello

Hi Gert-Jan,
We do the same and we don't face this issue. There is thus a solution.
I never had this case, this might be a parameter in your QAS refresh procedure.
1/ If you empty your production import buffer (meaning you import it all to production) before tacking the production copy you will never have this issue.
2/ If you have some transportd left in the import buffer of production , you have this issue ? I guess this is our case
I will try to reformulate the case.
The refresh of QAS is causing the lost of some customizing that were not yet imported in production but was imported in QAS prior to the refresh of QAS.
When you reimport the "overwritten" transports in QAS after the refresh, this transport is removed from the QAS import buffer and going too the import buffer of production.
A/The same transport is now twice in the import buffer of production ? we don't have this in our landscape (I even think this was not possible)
B/Or in between this transport has been imported in production and thus you are right it falls in the import buffer of production again with another sequence.
Thank you to confirm your case A or B ?.

Charm implementation: No maintenance cycle is open for the current system

Gurus,
I'm in implementation project to use charm.
I've created SDCR using charm_create, and choose transaction type subject "Development (implementation)"
After approving the change request, so that the status become "Approved", I re-open the request to set into "in development", but there's error:
"No maintenance cycle is open for the current system"
I've checked notes and search the forum but not relevant to my subject.
Please help.
Regards,

Hi Cesar,
I'm facing this issue now. I have followed Dolores blog
- The IBase is wrong: The IBase/component must represent the production system in the project landscape. RP1 is my production
- Lack of authorizations: Assign role "SAP_SOCM_ADMIN" or "SAP_CM_ADMINISTRATOR_COMP" (or equivalent) to the user who would like to approve the change request. I have updated all roles and given the users SAP_ALL
- Project is locked in table /TMWFLOW/PROJMAP: If an error is detected during the processing, then the project might be locked in this table. The customer can unlock it by pressing the refresh button under tab "System Landscape" -> "Change Requests". If there are other error messages shown during the refresh process, the customer must fix those errors beforehand. Refreshed it many times without errors
I'm on the latest level of Solman 7.1 SP8, I have implemented all the new notes as well.
I have attached a screenshot
To me it seems like a bug, but haven't found anything on marketplace. Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers
Jimmy
