Version Management for classes ; Best way to restore a class and methods

I have a question about the best way to actually restore a class to its previous version.
There is a class that contains about 60 to 80 methods. Now the task it to revert the class back to some previous state.
The desired versions of the class are spread across several transport - so there is no single transport that holds all the right versions.
What is the best and easiest way to proceed from here?
Do we have to revert back each method individually? Or is there a better method?
The desired version are in a another system - having a transport complied in that system does not to seem an option here.
Any tip? Is there any aux. report etc. that might help out?
Thanks for your input,
C.N

Excellent answer - of which I was afraid of. Maybe I can press the matter and get them to initiate a transport of copies from the target system to the source system - which indeed would be the best solution.
But just imagine it is done - the well needed fix applied - what is the best way to revert back to the new version in the source system?
What would the transport of copies do to the transport history?
There seems to be just the manual way...or is it doable to store the current state of the class in a transport having it released but not imported into any other system?
After the fix is applied can that transport be imported back to restore the current version (for which the fix needs to be applied again of course...)
Thanks for you thoughts and input

  • Version Management for BW queries?

    Hi,
    Is version management available for queries in BW?
    Like an ABAP program, different versions can be generated, allowing an older version to be retrieved and overwrites current version, for the case where heavy changes applied but has to be reverted.  And also the function of comparing versions to easily identifying the differences.
    Thanks.

    There is no version management for queries built into BW. Of course, you can generate new versions of queries each time you change them by doing a "Save As...", but we have found that this is counterproductive for several reasons, including:
    1) Extra Query Maintenance - Leads to multiple copies of a query, and eventually confusion over which one(s) are supposed to be used and which one(s) are "obsolete".
    2) User Favorites Maintenance - Any favorites that have been created by users will have to be recreated from scratch using the new query and/or workbook.
    There are probably others...
    Anyway, #2 is the one that finally convinced us to stop creating new versions of queries. Instead, we do considerable testing of any changes on our Dev and QA systems before finally replacing the Prod copy of the query. Of course, "backing out" changes is still a pain this way, but at least you have the original query on Prod to go by. For really major changes, we will also generate "Before" and "After" XLS files with results, both to prove that we are getting the expected results and to serve as a way to go back if the Prod query has been updated before a problem is discovered.
    Hope this helps...

  • Best way to restore iTunes contents on new computer.

    The computer gods conspired to get me.  My Windows XP desktop failed beyond repair and I am getting a new Windows 7 desktop.  But also by some coincidence, my new external hard drive that I backup my system on weekly also failed.  I still have my previous external hard drive, however.  The last backup from that was the beginning of June. 
    So I am looking for the best way to get whole again.  I have NO downloaded music on the iPod (some music from CDs that I can reload).  I do have a number of apps however, some with a lot of data that would be difficult to replace (although updating from June would be doable).
    If after installing iTunes on the new computer,I just synced to the iPod what would I lose?  Would it keep the apps data on the iPod?
    Or should I install iTunes, copy my backup from my External drive to the new computer and restore from the backup?
    Thanks

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program lke those discussed here:
    Best iPod to PC
    - Making a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecing Backup
    - Restore the iPod from backup and sync as necessary.

  • Best way to restore machine?

    I had an iMac drive become un-repairable. I was able to mount it and make a bootable copy with super duper. My question is which is the best way to restore the iMac drive. Should I just have super duper make a bootable copy back on the iMac drive or should I do a clean install of 10.5 then use the migration assistant to restore applications and documents.... any information would be great, first time I have ever had to do this to any of my machines.
    Bob

    I assume that you have tested the clone & it has inherited no problems from the un-repairable iMac drive. If this is not true, first boot from your Installer DVD & run its copy of Disk Utility (found under the Utilities menu). Select the clone drive (not the partition indented under it) in the list at the left of Disk Utility's First Aid tab & click "Repair disk." If that shows no problems, or is able to fix any it finds, then re-cloning the clone back to your iMac's drive should be fine; otherwise do a fresh install of the OS onto the iMac drive.
    I am assuming here that you have only one visible partition currently on the iMac drive, that being the HFS+ volume containing the Leopard installation that you normally boot from. (IOW, you don't have a Boot Camp partition or other volumes on the drive used for data storage.) If this is not true, please say so because the following will render any data currently on any partition of the iMac drive unrecoverable by normal means!
    Prior to restoring the clone to the iMac drive, it is a good idea to reformat it. This is because the drive may have problems in the partition scheme information that defines volumes & other partitions on it. Just erasing or overwriting a volume does not touch this information. Formatting the drive rewrites this information as well as erasing & recreating the directory structures that define each volume. (A normal erase of a volume just replaces its directory structures with new, empty ones. It does not actually erase the files listed in the old directory. In general, it is not necessary to do a secure erase of a volume, which does overwrite the files, unless you are selling the iMac.)
    To reformat the drive, boot from another source, such as the working & tested clone or your installer DVD, & run Disk Utility. Select the iMac drive from the list (again being careful not to select a partition indented under it) & click the "Partition" tab. Select the number of partitions you want from the popup (most people need only one), then click the "Options..." button & make sure the partition scheme is GUID Partition Table (assuming your iMac is an Intel-based one) or the Apple Partition Map (if you have a PPC iMac). For an internal drive the correct scheme should already be selected -- this is just a check to make sure it is.
    Once everything is set as you want, click the "Apply" button & confirm this in the 'Are you sure?' dialog. Formatting is quick, typically taking much less than a minute, & assures that the partition scheme, volume info, & file system(s) are fresh & free of any prior corruption.

    Not going to happen the way you want it to.
    When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
    Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

    Field nameMENGE(Quantity),TableMEPO1211
    For Header level fields:
    Field nameZTERM(payment terms field),,TableMEPO1226
    Category--A or B for selection of change documents
    No out put--if i tick it concern field will not included in change doc
    Version--what is the purpose
    Please suggest me
    1) we need enter the all the field names in the item over view and item details and Header level fields as given above ,is it correct.
    2) And with regard to Table, do i enter for Header level fields-EKKO or  MEPO1226 which is available in F1 under techinical information,

    5) After changes are made in Purchase order,first time on saving the PO,version is creating automatically,
    second time,if we do changes, version is not creating on saving the purchase order,what configuration needs to be done.
    Please suggest.

    Also tell me the use of *Display of change documents in PO*.
    It will display changes made both in item & header.It will help you to audit all changes made in p.o after it is raised.
    In version management not all changes can be ameneded as seperate versions
    only critical changes like price revision,quantity revision.

  • Version Management for SD

    Hello All,
    I need to maintain Version Management for SD. My client's requirement is whenever they change Quotation or Sales order they get version number.
    E.G
    Quotation Created -
    > 10
    Change Quotation -
    > 10.1
    Change quotation again -
    > 10.2
    just to remember the purpose of changing Quotation . Is it possible to do in SAP SD.
    Regards
    SD1000

    Query 1. Working with quotation version
    Generally, version for sales order is used for SAP Mill Products.
    So to have that functionality for your quotation.
    Configuration
    - Copy Standard sales doc type for VSH1 for sales version doc to create  version doc for Quote, say, ZVQT.
    - and all coresponding configuration which is requiored for introducing a new sales doc like allowing sales doc for desired sales area, number range, Item catergory determination similar to that of Quotation item category determination, pricing, copying control from QT to ZVQT and vice versa.
    - Configure Sales Order Versions
    To do this follow following path in SPRO
    IMG - SD - Sales - Sales Doc - Sales Order Version - Configure Sales Order Versions
    Here, you assign Sales Doc QT to the version sales Doc ZVQT
    Process
    1. In sales order (VA02), in menubar go to Edit - Additional Functions - Version Data - Transfer
    2. This will create a new document for ZVQT as a new version with reference to our original Quotation (QT) with item data.
    3. We can make changes in our version document (ZVQT).
    4. Once we confirm the changes, we can copy the version to our original Quotation.
    5. Further multiple verisions of the quotation can be created and compare the same.
    Query 2.  Bill of Material - LUMF
    I hope your item cat determination for LUMK is
    Sales Order
    - Item Cat Group
    - Higher Item Cat
    - Def Item Cat
    OR
    LUMF
    TAP
    OR
    LUMF
    TAP
    TAN
    So, if you are using TAP as higher Item Cat.
    Then you need not worry on pricing at the higher level,
    As, Item Cat TAP is not relevant for pricing.
    Thus, that item has Statistical relevance.
    Regards

  • Version management for POs

    Dear friends,
    Iam implimenting Version management for purchase orders.I have got doubts like;
    1)---In IMG side ,under setup change displays node, we need to enter all the field names of purchase order document type wise, ..i.e.
    we have got three doc.types of POs,NB,ZCP,ZCO,then Header and item details fields of PO shall be entered against each doc.type in this node.
    like -NB-EKPO---MATNR
    NB-EKKO-field
    We need to enter tables as EKKO and EKPO and
    all the fileds are to be entered for all the doc.types.
    we need to enter all the fields including header fields and item fields ,
    2)----For header fields,if i change the data,version is not creating,
    3)--At item details ,after release of the PO,if i change the data,if i save the document,it is saving without automatically closing the version.We need to manually close the version.
    I have given error category E for application MEDCM for 14,19,22,eventhough system is not giving error.
    Atleast provision should be there to give error if user doesnot close the version manually.
    Please suggest for my doubts.
    Regards,

    Hi
    For a combination of purchasing organization, document category, and document type, you can:
    <b>Activate version management</b>
    If version management is active, changes to a purchasing document are managed in versions.
    <b>Define field selection for versions</b>
    You can specify the attributes certain fields of the version are to have: mandatory entry, optional entry, display only, field suppressed.
    Set the message ststus as follows
    MEDCM     014     Purchasing document &, version & in process     W
    MEDCM     019     Purchasing document &, version 0, still in process     E
    MEDCM     021     Not all version-relevant changes were cancelled (&1)     W
    MEDCM     023     No unprocessed message exists                         W
    System will  allow  to manually close the version .Version 0 will be set automatically .After that system will allow to manually close the version.
    I dont think you will face probelm.

  • Moving from Late 2008 MB to Late 2008 MBP... best way to restore via TM?

    Hello,
    My Late 2008 Macbook was involved in an accident (RIP). I had hopes the HDD would still work okay, but it just beeps at me and is unable to load anything.
    So, I've already ordered my replacement Mac. I ended up ordering the 2.53 Late 2008 MBP refurbed from Apple.
    I need to eventually restore my data on here. Fortunately I had Time Machine setup with my backup applications and files. What is the best way to restore my applications/settings on the New Macbook? Migration Assistant? Archive and Install?
    The previous Macbook had a problem when opening Safari, sometimes it would take a few seconds longer than normal to load with the beachball. I'm trying to avoid migrating the issues I had previously onto the new system, so ideally I'd have a fresh OS X install, but with all of my applications and settings intact. Is there an ideal way to do this?
    Thanks,
    Jonathan

    I understand completely about wanting to have a fresh OS to start out from to minimize any performance issues and whatnot.
    As far as I can imagine, the only way to do this with all your settings and files intact is to do the Time Machine restore, then Archive and Install after (aka Option 2). However, I would evaluate the performance of the system before doing the Archive and Install. I have a feeling that you'll think its more than satisfactory and not feel the need to do the A&I at all.
    As to the Safari issue, it was probably a .plist file corruption or something like that which is very simple to fix. If the new machine presents the same issue with Safari as the old one, I'm pretty confident that we can fix that up quite easily.
