Procedure documentationProcessing Objects in a Change Hierarchy  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Prerequisites

You have maintained change master records with the following functions: Change leader and change package.

See: Engineering Change Hierarchy

Procedure

  1. Process the objects (for example, BOMs) with reference to the change numbers of the change packages. Save your change.
  2. If you feel it is necessary, check the changes again after you have made all the object changes with reference to the change packages. At this processing stage, the changes are not yet released in the adjoining work areas (for example, production).

    3. Note

    You can simulate a change that has not yet been released as released. See: Simulating a Change Status as Released.

  3. Release the changes in the change leader. On the Change Header screen, choose a release key that is defined as Released globally.

Result

The changes are taken into account in operative work areas after they have been released globally (release key) in the change leader.
