Procedure documentationOptional: Including Modification Adjustment Transports in Installation Queues Locate this document in the navigation structure

Prerequisites

  • The system prompts you to decide whether to include the modification adjustment transports in the installation queue.

    Note Note

    You can suppress this question in the Add-On Installation Tool settings.

    End of the note.

  • You have already executed the modification adjustment for the same installation queue. For more information, see: Executing Modification Adjustments.

Procedure

  1. Confirm that you want to include modification adjustment transports.

    A dialog box appears, containing a list of existing modification adjustment transports.

    You have the following options:

    1. If no adjustment transports are displayed in the list, you need to notify the system of the transports. To do this, choose Find Adjustment Transports.

      The system searches for adjustment transports in the Transport Management System import queue and in the transport directory on the application server. The system lists the transport requests that you have selected as modification adjustment transports and released in the export system.

      For each adjustment transport listed, the Status field shows whether or not it fits the current installation queue and can be included.

      Adjustment transports that match the queue are already selected in the table. An adjustment transport "matches" the queue if the target Package status of the current queue is the same as the one in the export system at the time when the modification adjustment transport is exported.

    2. If required, change the adjustment transport selection.

      You cannot select adjustment transports that do not match the queue. To hide adjustment transports that do not match the queue, choose Activate Filter.

  2. To add the adjustment transports in the installation queue, choose Continue.

    Caution Caution

    When a modification adjustment transport is imported as part of an installation queue, it is deleted from the normal transport flow for Workbench requests. Requests are not forwarded to follow-on systems automatically. If you are working with the classic three-system landscape comprising a development system (DEV), quality assurance system ( QAS) and production system (PRD), the modification adjustment transport is put into the QAS import queue after being exported from the DEV system. Including the adjustment transport in an installation queue in system QAS means that it is deleted from the QAS import queue. Since no transport forwarding takes place when importing an installation queue, the adjustment transport is not forwarded to the PRD system’s import queue.

    You then need to import the adjustment transport into the PRD system as part of an installation queue, using the same procedure as in the QAS.

    End of the caution.
