Function	Type of change	Description	More information
Create referencing check items	New	You can use referencing check items. Referencing check items derive the valuation of a structure node from the valuation of the superordinate structure node. You can use them, for example, for manual process steps that are performed outside the system. For example, placing an invoice in an envelope and sending it could be derived from the business process Create Invoice.	Creating and Editing Check Items
Analysis results	Enhanced	To display how the rating of nodes is calculated, you can display a legend. Using a simulation, you can visualize the valuation function of the analysis. You can see how the rating of a structure node changes if the ratings of subordinate structure nodes change.	Results in Analysis Structure
Display object usage	New	Under Settings, you can show additional columns for the object types transaction, report and function module (RFC). In this way, you can, for example, display the assignment of the objects to their respective application components.	Display Object Usage
Display an overview of the analysis results as a graphic	New	You can display the results of an analysis, summarized in a table, as a graphic for presentation purposes. The table displays the number of structure objects for each structure object type, as well as the number and proportion structure objects that are actively used.	Displaying an Overview of the Analysis Results as a Graphic
Analysis report	Enhanced	You can optionally also display descriptive SQL check steps in the analysis report.	Adjust Structure and Appearance of an Analysis Report
Table of analyses of an analysis project	Enhanced	You can rename analyses.	Table of Analyses of an Analysis Project
Compare analyses	New	By comparing two analyses, you can see at a glance whether, for example, there have been changes in the analysis results from one period to the next. You can analyze where and why differences have occurred.	Compare Analyses
Edit logical components of an analysis project	New	You can add additional logical components to an analysis project, or delete or replace existing logical components. For example, you have uploaded an analysis project and assigned the appropriate logical components in the target system to the logical components. You later realize that the assignment you made when creating the analysis project was not correct.	Editing Logical Components of an Analysis Project
Content Interface	Enhanced	You can: Override the assignment of product and product version, if necessary, by assigning a logical component that was created for another product. You can branch to the created analysis project or created and start an analysis based on the uploaded analysis project. Combine multiple analysis projects when uploading. In addition to the analysis projects, you can combine a file with check rules with the analysis projects. If, for example, you combine two products in an analysis project, you do not need to create separate analysis projects and perform separate analyses, but instead receive a complete overview.	Downloading Analysis Projects or Check Rules to a Data Medium or Uploading them from a Data Medium
Copying an analysis project and updating it with data from a solution or an SAP Solution Manager project	Enhanced	If you copy an analysis project, you can update it using a SAP Solution Manager project (or solution) other than the one underlying the analysis project. This could be, for example, an analysis project that you have uploaded from a reference SAP Solution Manager system.	Copying an Analysis Project and Updating it with Data from a Solution or an SAP Solution Manager Project
