Transporting changes to characteristics

Hello everyone,
I wish to transport the change to the text of a characteristic I made via KEA5. To this end, I created a request via KE3I, selected "Operating concern" for transport object and then "Master data: characteristic values" for dependent object class, the request was then transported to the target system. Still, the change does not appear to have been transported. Am I missing something? We have already been having problems with incompletely transported requests on these systems.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
when you create the request and mark "Structures: basic settings" + "Structures: ABAP Repository objects" the change will be included in the transport request.
Don#t forget to regenerate the operating concern (KEA0) in target system, after the import is finished.
Best regards, Christian

  • How to change the characteristics of a Batch

    Dear All,
    We have maintained a batch sort sequence based on Batch Manufacturing date.
    But now customer wants the batch to be sorted out based on Batch Number.
    How to change the Characteristics from Batch Manufacturing date and Batch Number?
    Please do suggest.
    For example, we have two characteristics assigned to the Class One is Manufacturing date and another is Batch Number.
    How system will sort out a batch based on these two logic.
    Kindly explain.
    Regards,
    Mullairaja

    Hi Mullai,
    I hope you know what do you mean by "Dependencies" in variant configuration. These are created for automatic update of characteristic values.  If you want to delete the characteristic from the class, please do teh following.
    1. Find out that there are any dependencies assigned to this characteristic. If so remove the assignment
    2. Then you have to check if this characteristic is used in any dependency in the code. If so, find the implications of the same.
    In case, you dont know what is dependency, may be they are not used in your project. In this case, you can just remove the characteristic from the class.
    It has got one effect.
    At present, a configured batch will have this characteristic. If you go to the batch master in change mode, then the old classification will be replaced by the new classification. So the deleted characteristics will not be available to you anymore. I hope that is fine with you. If this is fine, then you dont need to worry about removing the characteristic from the class.

  • In CMS, there is no Transportable change list in ID

    Hi All,
    I am using CMS. I want to transport Configuration Objects. But when I am going to Change list tab page in ID, I am able to see only open and close Change list. There is no option called Transportable Change List.
    I have followed HELP.SAP.COM which tells,
    "You have created an XI track in the Landscape Configurator and entered the addresses of the development, consolidation, and productive directory. There are no software component versions in the Integration Directory. Therefore, for directory transports using the CMS, you specify the software component version SAP-INTDIR 3.0 (EXCHANGE DIRECTORY 3.0). This refers to all configuration objects of the Integration Directory.
    Once you have made this setting, you can create transport lists for the CMS. The status of the change lists no longer changes to Closed immediately after their release, but first changes to Transportable."
    But still the status of the change list changes to closed and there is no tab called transportable change list.
    However I am able to transport IR objects correctly and there I am able to see Transportable change list too.
    Is there any specific configuration for this??
    Warm Regards,
    Gouri

    Hi Gauri,
    for ID, the XI track which you have created, you should specify SAP-INTDIR 3.0 (EXCHANGE DIRECTORY 3.0) swcv.............now you create a new config scenario in ID.............Now you should see transportable change list in ID....

  • After transporting changes are not happening

    Hi All,
    As per the requirement we need a change in the pricing procedure ZJEXPS
    (Export Sales Switch). We made the changes in transaction code V/08.
    But after transporting the request to quality server, changes are not reflecting there.
    I had checked the request number all the tasks are there and transport was completed with warning.
    our consultant created another request and then also after transporting changes are not reflecting.
    How it is happening particular to this request?
    How to trace this? Kindly suggest me.
    (Ours is two system landscape with master client 009 and quality client 007.I am trying to transport to 007)
    Regards,
    Nagendra.

    Hi
    Check the import logs. If you are getting warnings that original objects cannot be replaced. You need to import the change request in unconditional mode. During performing imports select option, overwrite originals.
    Some times the requests contain the objects, which are original to the target system, e.g SAP standard objects.
    Check if this could help you.

  • Transport change request

    Hello Team,
    I have a transport change request that needs to be imported to production. It has the changes to userexit MV45AFZZ. Can i import it to production system with users on the system or it has to be done when there are no users on the system. Please advice.
    Tthanks.
    Regards,
    Baabi

    Sales documents in a production system get created in various ways - through online users, through interfaces with other systems like EDI, Web or any other system or through any background process.
    When source code in common includes like MV45AFZZ etc changes it needs recompiling of the whole main program SAPMV45A again. If changes happen while documents are getting created it may cause instability or even run time termination.
    Better to choose a silent time when users or other processes are not creating any sales document (inquiries, quotations, orders, contracts, credit/debit memos etc)

  • CTS - Don't Always Want Transportable Change Lists

    Is there a way to turn off automatic creation of the Transportable Change Lists?  At times, especially during the trial and error of development in the IB-Repository, I do not like having a bunch of transportable change lists created.  I end up deleting them manually since I always do initial transports of the entire SWCV after I am done.
    In the past I have turned off the change lists by SWCV when using CMS for transports (config exists in Administration section of Integration Builder).  Is there something like this for CTS?

    This change did not resolve my issue (and we bounced the system to make sure it took effect).
    If anyone knows of anything else, please chime in.
    When I make a change in IB-Repository, then go to the "Change Lists" tab and activate the change, a "Transportable" change list automatically generates.  I would like that turned off and I will only make transports when I am ready.
    Thanks

  • Transporting change request

    hi SD experts,
    I really appreciate if anyone tell me abt Transporting change request concept
    and do  sd consultant hve any role in this scenario.
    Thanx in advance
    regards
    vaseem

    Transport request is not generated for Master Data. For eg: Customer Master, Material Master, price master, etc.
    Benefit of Transport Request:
    SAP Landscape normally has 3- Tier system:
    <b>Development Server</b> - Where customization takes place. TRansport request is generated at this level & then first transported to Quality server for testing whether it meets the requirement or not. Once the requirement is met in Quality server then Request is transported from Development Server to Production Server (Actual / Live System)
    <b>Quality Server</b> - Mainly useful for testing.
    <b>Production Server</b> Actual / Live server, where the real transactions are created & posted.

  • Change Material Characteristics

    Dear All,
    My requirement: Need to change material characteristics through a BDC or BAPI.
    thru BDC, it is not allowing to change from the tcode mm02/mm42, don't have an idea BAPI for changing material Characteristics.
    Thanks,
    Ravi

    Characteristics are part of Classification system, so you would not find a specific BAPI for material characteristic maintenance. Use the below function to update characteristics of any classification relevant object including materials.
    CLOBJECTKEY is Class type value that you see when you select Classification view in Materiam master MM03. Play around with it comparing its interface with MM03 classification.
    Also classification can be accessed Sap Menu -> Cross application components -> Classification system
    CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE_KEY'
      EXPORTING
        CLOBJECTKEY               =
        CLASSNUM                  =
    *   STATUS_NEW                = '1'
    *   STANDARDCLASS_NEW         =
    *   CHANGENUMBER              =

  • Can I transport changes thru Quality to Production without dropping data?

    Hi,
    I have data on a Quality system which is being used and it has become critical to extent that the Quality system is treated as Production.
    Now, there have been some changes in Development: 5 new key figures and 10 new characteristics. As a result, there have been modifications in the Infosource, update rules, ODS, Multiproviders, etc on Development.
    The plan is to transport these changes on Dev to Production and load data on Production for comparison against the data in Quality.
    (It may sound weird but that is the plan since there are some problems on Development)
    My question:
    Since the changes have to go through Quality to Production, will there be problem on the data on Quality?
    The goal is to freeze the data in Quality. Can the changes go through Quality without the need to drop the data in Quality?
    [Note that the objects are going to Production the first time: we do not overwrite any existing objects on Production]
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You need not do anything special while releasing the request.  If anything needs to be done, Basis should do it.
    For that matter, Basis should be able to copy the  CO and DAT files of a particular released request, to the import queue of any SAP system and import it there.  They would do that using operating system level commands.
    For us lesser folks, ther are above the table methods:-)
    If you go to transaction STMS in the development system and click on the 'red truck' (transport overview) you would be able to see the import queues of the D, Q and P systems.
    You can double-click on each system to see the requests.
    If you have released a change request, it would be exported and available in the import queues of the Q and P systems.
    If the request has been imported the status will show with a 'yellow triangle'.
    If the request is yet to be imported it would show with a 'green square'.
    In a particular import queue, you may choose the request that is not imported and import it into the system.
    Having said all this, it is quite possible that Basis may have configured the transport domain in a different manner.  It is possible that the Quality system is configured for Quality assurance.  That is why it is important to do this in association with the Basis team.
    Since the possibilities are many, a link is attached for further reading:

  • BPC Transport Too many characteristics (024) are assigned to dimension

    Hi Gurus,
    We are implementing BPC Consolidation for NetWeaver 7.5, and we're facing the following situation:
    Too many characteristics (024) are assigned to dimension /CPMB/Q6IW0EVD
    Diagnosis
    Too many characteristics are assigned to the given dimension.
    For a "normal" InfoCube, the database table to be created for a dimension may contain a maximum of 249 fields. This means that no more than 248 characteristics may be assigned.
    However, if the property "DIMIDs One-to-One" is set, a unique index on the characteristics of the dimension is created. In this case each dimension may not contain more than 16 characteristics.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance
    Best Regards
    Abraham Méndez

    Hi Sheldon,
    Thanks for answering my question.
    I already ran that full optimization you talked about but i dont see some changes in BW, what i can see is the shadow cube that the full optimization creates but i cant see how the full optimization solves that bunching of too many BPC dimensions on one BW cube dimension afterwards.
    The fact is that when the transport order generated by BPC transaction UJBPCTR is imported into the Productive environment the error still raising, with the same description:
    u201CToo many characteristics (024) are assigned to dimensionu201D
    Could you help me by telling me how full optimization solves that dimension bunching? Another question is Why does the error appear until the transport order is imported and not when you are working in development?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards.
    Abraham Mendez.

  • Error while Transporting changes in Process chain

    Hi Pratap,
           The infopackage has not yet been assigned to a package in all probabilty. Change the package and then transport the IP and then transpost the process chain request.

  • After transport, changes are not updating

    hi..........
    We are configured two clients  as master client(009) and test client(008) in one DEV machine.
    i performed one transport from 009 to 008.( i released through scc1 and imported in 008 through scc1) it's transported successfully.
    but our consultant saying that, those changes is not updating in client 008.
    i performed so many transports to 008 and also to prd. before and after.
    then why the changes were not updating in 008, to that particular request?he created another request with the same issue  and i transported it.again same problem. is there any thing to check from basis side?
    (4.7E,mssql,widows 2003 server)
    Please help me.................

    Hello,
    Check the transport log. Even it is saying Sucessfully Imported, just open it, read  it.
    And check the size of the transport request also.
    And another option is add this particular request with another request and transport it. Check for anything is happening....
    I don't think anything balance has left from basis side....
    Note: Points always encourage me to reply !!

  • After transport changes are not reflecting to other users

    HI all it's urgent
    One user abcd who had made some changes to some screens is not reflecting to other users after transport we have 2 clients 100 and 200 changes are reflecting in own user id we transported with scc1 transaction
    with regards
    vinod

    I am not a developer, so pardon me if I misunderstood this question. I thought screens and other repository objects are client independent. That means the change should be evident in all clients without a need to transport.
    Is this to do with security by any chance ( though it seems unlikely )? Can the other users see the change in the original client in which the request was made? That should help you determine whether the problem lies with the transport or outside. Also you can check the contents of the transport in SE01 and see if it holds the kind of data that you are expecting it to. I am guessing you have already generated the screen after saving the changes.
    Hope this helps,
    Sanket

  • Transport-changing package owner

    Hi Gurus,
    I am facing an issue in BW system. After changing transport layer for particular package , Request is going into corrections and repairs. Since this is not the original system for the object, also it was prompting for local workbench request only.
    To eliminate this problem i used TRANSPORT OF COPIES through which you can transport the objects belonging to some other system.
    But after changing the transport layer, i am getting the following problem. It will be of great help if anyone can tell me the reason behind the below issue.
           ABCK904251      XYZ      PACKAGE TRANSPORT LAYER CHANGE ( 12.02.2011 )
           ABCK904252   123      Development/Correction
           ABCK904253    123      Repair
    Also how we can change the owner of a package.?? it seems that somehow they all are interelated.
    Please reply,
    Thanks N regards,
    Alok

    Hi,
    Suppose your having 2 system landscapes
    One Landscape   ->  SD1   ST2  SP3 , Here your having RD3 as Transport Layer name
    Another Landscape  -> SYD1   SYT2   SYP3, Here your having RD2 as Transport Layer name.
    Now you have moved some objects from SD1 and SYD1.
    Now when you check the package of those objects in SYD1, the Transport Layer name will show as RD3 in SYD1.
    Here in SYD1 actual Transport Layer name is RD2. So you have to chage the Tranpsort Layer name for that package which you have imported from SD1 to SYD1.
    Once you import to the SYD1 from SD1,  In SYD1 change the Transport Layer in SE80 t-code.
    You can't change the Owner of the name, but when you chage that object latest modified by will be your name.
    Regards,
    Shankar.
