Process Flow

...

       1.      Activate the enhancement

By default your enhancement is inactive. To make it available for the runtime environment you have to activate it.

       2.      Test the enhancement

The enhancement can change the behavior of your application. Therefore, it is crucial to test your application including the new enhancement. Use eCATT to record test scripts, run test (optionally with parameters), and analyze the test results.

       3.      Release the enhancement

If all tests are successful you release your enhancement with the Workbench Organizer and transport it through your system landscape (from development to production).

Result

The enhancement is activated and released to production.
