Entering Component Systems

Use

You can either load the data for the component systems from a file or, in exceptional cases, include it manually.

Procedure

With an Electronic LAW Measurement Plan

  1. Start the License Administration Workbench.

  2. Switch to the Systems tab page in the Maintain RFC Data view.

  3. To load the system data from the file, choose Load Measurement Plan.

    A dialog box appears, in which you specify the local file to be loaded. All system data of your component systems to be measured and the central system are displayed in the LAW in this way.

    If system data, that is, an old LAW measurement plan, already exists, the LAW compares the plans and copies the manually added data, such as the RFC destination. However, it does not delete any component systems when doing so. You must always perform the deletion manually.

  4. Add the name of the RFC Destination for each system, and, if necessary, replace the default name of the report RSLAW_PLUGIN with the actual report name used in the relevant system. You can specify the RFC destination NONE for the central system.

  1. To compare the system identification data with the data from the component systems, and to fetch and add missing data (release and system status), select all systems and choose Check System Overview by RFC.

    If the function could not be executed or inconsistencies were found (for system number, installation number, and so on), the traffic light is red, and an icon is displayed in the Info column, with which you can display more detailed information. You must manually clean inconsistencies displayed with a red traffic light:

    1. Delete the relevant line, and choose Add New System.

    2. Enter the correct data in the following dialog box.

    If the checks ran successfully, the traffic lights are green.

  2. Save the system overview.

Without an Electronic LAW Measurement Plan

If you need to extend the electronic LAW measurement plan, perform the following steps for each system to be added:

  1. Use the function Add New System to enter the data for each individual system.

    If you do not specify a system number, the LAW assigns a temporary system number.

  2. To compare the system identification data with the data from the component system, and to fetch and add missing data (release and system status), select the systems and choose Check System Overview by RFC. The prerequisite for this is that you have set up the RFC connections.

    If the function could not be executed or inconsistencies were found (for system number, installation number, and so on), the traffic light is red, and an icon is displayed in the Info column, with which you can display more detailed information. You must manually clean inconsistencies displayed with a red traffic light:

    1. Delete the relevant line, and choose Add New System.

    2. Enter the correct data in the following dialog box.

    If the checks ran successfully, the traffic lights are green.

  3. Save the system overview.
