To get a complete overview of the different possible reasons, choose Severity Levels.

The system assigns a severity level to objects. The severity of a custom object is an aggregated status of the referred SAP objects. You can change the severity level of the referred SAP objects manually.

Example Example

A custom object refers to an SAP object. The SAP object has the severity Red. You know that the severity is not critical for this SAP object. You change the severity manually to Green. The system changes the status to Uncritical automatically. You can decide if the change should be applied to only to this instance of the SAP object, or for all instances of this object. The system sets the adjustment time of the SAP object to zero.

End of the example.

You can customize the severity levels in table CNVCDMCUCIA_CUST. This table contains the customizing entries while table CNVCDMCUCIA_C_TX contains the text.

For each object type there is a set of result fields (such as NOT EXIST and ATTRIBUTES) for which the severity level is maintained in the CNVCDMCUCIA_CUST.

This information is used while performing the remote comparison and set the severity based on the comparison results for an object type.

However, it is not possible to manually maintain / change the severity levels in the UCIA display screen (in change mode in UCIA Display results).

The adjustment times at the very right of the list shows the average adjustment time (in hours) for each object type. Note that the adjustment times refer to all objects, not just those impacted by the upgrade.
