Virtual systems in SMSY? (Change Control Mgmt. & Change Request Mgmt.)

Dear all,
We plan to implement Change Control Management (CCM) and Change Request Management (Charm).
At the current stage of the project, we do not have all satellite systems ready (e.g. production system is missing, Dev and QA are setup).
Nevertheless we want to start setup of Charm and CCM.
We understand that we have to "register" the missing systems in the STMS as virtual systems.
But how do we do that in the SMSY?
Do we enter the data manually? or can we "load" the data out of the STMS?
And what are the typical traps and errors we can make (i.e. hopefully avoid making). Anyone to share his/her experience?
Thanks and Regards,
Jan

Hi Jan
please see:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_smehp1/helpdata/en/9c/efa9068cce4149a40d7991ad2113f3/content.htm
Goto SMSY
Systems
Select your SAP XXX (like SAP ERP or SAP Netweaver)
Click on your SID
On the right hand side you go to the tab "Header Data"
Here you can aktivate planned or production
If you are unable to see the planned button that this is because your setting for data source is not set to manual.
Than please click on the button "Other object" (SHift + F5), for System enter your SID and click on the lock "Set Datasource to Manual input CTRL+F9)
This will set your SID-System to manual adjustment - just confirm.
Than you can mark your system as planned
You will be able to add clients manually yes.

Change Request Management: virtual systems

Hi!
We would like to set up Change Request Management (ChaRM) approach for 3 +1 systems:
DEV --> VT1 (virtual system) --> QAS --> PRD
Questions:
1) Are there some restrictions implementing ChaRM with virtual systems?
2) We would like to use in parallel non-ChaRM transports and we have there
an automatic transport twice a day.
Will this approach be a problem for the ChaRM?
3) Which transport routes will be used by ChaRM?
a) one for transportof the SAP objects (e.g. "SAP") and one standard transport route (e.g. Z<SID>) or
b) do I have the possibility to choose the transport routes?
Any helpful information will be very appreciated and awarded by points.

I am very sorry for the mess I did trying to post my message. I was not able to post it.
Can you please give me any solutions to the problem reported?

STMS Configuration - Change Virtual System with Real System

Dear all,
My system, if I go in the transaction STMS in DEV system, was configureted in the following way:
DEV => QA => PROD (Virtual System)
Now, I want to change the PROD Virtual System in PROD Real System.
How Can procede?
Can you explain step-by-step the process?
Because the system was configureted from other people, and I'm new to using the STMS.
Thanks in advanced for your help.
Best Regards,
Giulio

Hi,
After the planned system is physically installed it is time to replace the Virtual System with the realized system.
The procedure for the same is as under:
1) Delete the Virtual System from the transport domain
. Login into Transport Domain system client 000
· Using STMS got to Overview=> Systems
· Chose SAP Virtual System=> Delete (confirm)
· Distribute configuration change.
As soon as the configuration change is distributed, the virtual system is deleted. The import queue for this system in TMS disappears but it is available as import buffer at the operating systems level.
Now add the new (physical system) to the transport domain:
If STMS is configured as standalone system then first delete STMS configuration on PRD system
login into PRD system client 000. (delete STMS configuration if present.)
run stms -> it's ask for set up STMS -> click on other configurition (F6)
Target Host -> host name of domain controller ( host name of transport domain system)
System number -> Instance number of domain controller ( instance number of transport domain system)
Now,
Go to the Transport Domain Controller and accept the system. (As the import buffer is available at the operating system level, no change requests will be lost)
Distribute the configuration changes.

It may well be a driver issue but considering the loading: Xorg trying to load different drivers is somewhat normal. @cafe you can see that these are autoconfigured by X above the loading in the log:
Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 0
Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 1
Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched modesetting as autoconfigured driver 2
Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 3
Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 4
As long as one of the drivers gets loaded, which it apparently does the failing of the others is fine.
Was there an update maybe ?

Changing controlling area from single company code to cross company code

Hi,
Due to my client requirement, in the middle of the year, we need to change the controlling area from being same as company code to cross company code controlling area. Although the currency is same. We are going to create a new company code. Is the changing controlling area settings possible to do? what are the precautions and changes need to be taken?
One more question, we need to change the company code when the new company code is created in the system in Cost Center Masters in the middle of the year. Is this possible after changing controlling area from single company code to cross company code. Right now company code is not appearing in the cost center master.
Thanks & Regards,
Saidarao

Hi,
If both companies having transaction data its not possible,Normally before defining Organisational Strucutre only we have to deside both companies is assigning same controlling are or have to maitain separately for this we have to compare the Fiscal year,Operating chart of accounts ,if both having same then we will assign both the company codes to one controlling area if these two companies having different currencies also its not a problem.When we creating Controlling Area we have to choose option of controlling area as same company code (if one company code one controlling Area) for example if you assigning two companies then we have to use cross company code cost accounting.If u need any further information let me know.

Satya

Solution Manager Certification -- Change Control Management

I am planning to do the certification test on "Application Management Expert - Change Control Management" , C_E2E200_08.
I am looking for sample questions or any study tips.

Hello Tathagata,
Please do the following checks.
1) Check if the satellite system TMS is configured with three system landscape.
2) Check both to and back RFCs to the systems. Especially check if the users are not locked. Even if the users are locked, the RFC check may give you green.
3) Go to central configuration(/TMWFLOW/cmsconf) in Solution Manager system and check if the system are shown green.. If not there will be a check list to make the systems green. For example no changes should be permitted in the production system.

Hi All,
I want to know if the co area in cj20 can be changed , if it can be changed please tell me how to change the co area from 1000 to 2000

Hi vineeth ,
I agree with others..You can not change Controlling area in project after get saved...
But for further project you can create a new project profile and don assign controlling are there.
While creating project system will ask for that in cj20n.
And if you dont want to change new project profile then You can do like that...While creating project in cj20n you can change controlling are before saving the project.
Hope it will help you
Thanks

Control Table changes

Hello All,
Can anyione help me on this. I am not able to understand what control table changes mean. I know what Table controls are but not known to control table.
And they are different from each other.
Can anyone please help me on this.

hi,
WELCOME TO SDN.
*Control Tables
The search indexes for address data, as well as the address data itself, are client-dependent. There can now be other differentiations within a client. These are called "Index pools".
The division reflects the fact that multiple areas of master data are involved, which differ from the business embedding in the SAP System and from the technical implementation.
Two such index pools are currently defined in table TSADRVGRP with a technical key derived from control table TSADRV:

Change Control tools for APEX development

I have a customer who is using APEX and would like to have change control, version, and synchronization of APEX pages...
Basically we are talking about Configuration management capabilities

Well, since APEX is mostly pl/sql based, the other poster's idea of SQL Developer is valid... The other items.... you are on your own for test scripts (again sql developer for the pl/sql required...)
What it sounds like is your are wanting a oracle designer wrap-around for APEX.. Don't know what to tell you.. I would suggest you look at some type of version control system.. Subversion is a good one, MS Source Safe works too...
Thank you,

Pricing type in copy controls is changed from "D" to "B" Impact

Hi,
what would be major impact on pricing if pricing type in copy controls is changed from "D" to "B".
Source document-contract
Target document-returns, now it is D but client want it to B.
This is not Standard, but would like to now the impacts on pricing.
Regards,
Vinod.

I want the impact
Imagine the client's original billing price was INR 500.00 but in pricing condition, INR 800.00 is maintained. Now in this case, as you said, in copy control, if you maintain "B", then while creating return order, system will consider INR 800.00 and accordingly, credit note will also be generated. Hence, the client is loosing the difference in excess of billing to the extent of quantity flowing in credit note.

Change Control

1) What kind of 'day-to-day' maintenance/administration/monitoring processes for your oracle EBS system do you put through change control? Can you provide some examples?
2) Also if you are like a systems administrator for Oracle EBS, what are your day-to-day duties for managing the system?

Hello,
Users who have experienced blank options dialog boxes had the extension Ghostery installed. If you have it installed as well can you try disabling it to see if that allows you to access the options? Alternatively you can run in [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] to see if that lets you change your options.

Effective Change control for BW

Hi All,
We have a requirement for developments in two different development environments, to merge together in one production BW System. This will require very effective change control process, of managing changes to common BW objects. I have a couple of questions for the BW Gurus.
1) What is the Best way to manage this?
2) Is there a recommended third party tool to manage this change?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Chandan.

If the resources are available I'd set up another development system that only contains common BW objects and is delivered to both development systems. Or you set up one BW system as master development system and create two different transport layers, one directly to test and prod and one 'Master' layer that only contains the common objects and is delivered to your second development and test and prod.
I'd definitely set up a common test system so that problems in development are found out early.
Other ideas:
Create strict naming guides and implement authorizations in your development systems so that it isn't possible to create the same InfoObject in both systems.
Have regular meetings between the two teams to identify common InfoObjects and DataSources early on.
Depending on the size of your SAP environment you might think about registering a namespace at SAP. This gives you a /MYNAME/-prefix on your BW-objects to differentiate the objects. But I'd only recommend it for big installations.
Best regards
Dirk

Avoid credit control while changing delivery

Hi,
I have a problem:
We'd like to avoid the credit control when there is changed a delivery note.
We have defined a condition in which we placed the "BYPASS" (OSS 895630) variant in connection with the transaction code (e.g. VL02N).
The problem is, that we change our deliveries via WHSCON idoc, here the transaction code is " ". If we add the transaction " " in our condition to avoid the credit control while changing the delivery with an idoc, we will have a problem when we create our deliveries, because the deliveries are created by a batch job, too (transaction is even " ", too). So the credit control won't even work while creating a delivery, too. This is a difficult situation.
So I'm searching for a way to differenciate between changing and creating a delivery, that I am able to overtake that in the condition.
Hope to be clear.
Chris

Hi again,
I think I will make a check if the delivery number is initial or not.
The system will check as follows:
- when the transaction is " " and the delivery number is not initial --> avoid credit control
- when the transaciotn is " " and the delivery number is initial --> process credit control
Sometimes the solution is easier as expected first...
Thanks for help!!
Chris
