Use

By default, the Check-In tab page displays software component archives (SCAs) that are in the inbox directory of the transport directory. The check-in options in CMS allow you to specify additional directory paths, from which you can check in software component archives into CMS.

Note

In the check-in table, you see only those SCAs whose software components are also configured in the track. CMS filters out all other SCAs.

You can also specify that the selected software component archives are restricted to the highest versions.

Prerequisites

The CMS user must have access rights for the specified directories.

The directory paths you enter must exist.

Procedure

To configure the check-in options, choose the Configure Check-In... function on the Check-In tab page. The Configure Check-In dialog box appears.

Setting a Filter for the Number of Displayed Software Component Archives

  1. Set the value of the check-in option Show Highest Version of Archives Only . This option is deactivated by default.

  2. Save your entry.

    Now only the highest versions of the software component archives (SCAs) appear on the Check-In tab page.

Configuring Additional Directory Paths for Software Component Archives

  1. Choose New. A new row is ready for input.

  2. Enter a valid directory path.

    Note

    Relative paths are always relative to the transport path.

  3. Repeat the previous steps for all directory paths from which you want to check in SCAs.

  4. Save your entries.

    CMS now places all those software component archives in the selection list that are located in the specified directories.

Restoring the Default Check-In Options

You can use the Set Default Values function to restore all default settings. The Show Highest Version of Archives Only option is then deactivated again; the list of directories contains the entry inbox only.

Result

You have configured the check-in options.
