In any implementation, upgrade, template or maintenance project, you must activate Change Request Management if you want to work with requests for change in the respective project. You can also make other settings in the project administration.
In the project administration, you can perform the following settings under
Activate Change Request Management
If you select this indicator, all systems of a logical component are selected on the Systems tab page and are thus included in change request management.
You can now start managing all changes in the system landscape using requests for change. Transports are then only possible in conjunction with change request management.
Mark the Use Central Change and Transport Infrastructure checkbox if you want to activate enhanced flexibility features for change request management based on the central Change and Transport System (central CTS) infrastructure. For more information, see Change Control Management Using Central Change and Transport System.
Assign System Clusters
This checkbox is displayed, if you have activated central CTS for your project. You can assign system clusters to the displayed system roles.
If the value help for system clusters and domains is empty, there is no transport route from the already defined system clusters to the system cluster you would like to choose. In order to check the transport routes of your cluster configuration, choose Go to Cluster Configuration.
If your landscape has changed, you can change the cluster assignment. Choose Reset System Cluster Assignment to do so. All assignments are deleted and you can assign the clusters anew.
After you have finished the system cluster assignment, save your data
Assign Variant for Task List
You can choose from two SAP standard variants with different transport procedures to the production system: You use SAP0 if you work with urgent and normal corrections. You use SAP1 if you only work with urgent corrections.
Create Task List
The system creates a project or a maintenance cycle and a task list.
Show Task List
You display the generated task list. The task list receives all jobs (methods) that must or can be executed for a project.
Display Change Cycle
You can access the processing functions for the project or maintenance cycle in the WebClient UI and change the phase, for example. For more information, see Processing a Project Cycle and Processing a Maintenance Cycle.
Show Project Status Switch
You define whether and into which systems of a logical component transport requests can be imported.
When a project cycle is created, the CTS status switches are set to “off” by default. This means that the functions of the Change and Transport System cannot be used to create, release, or import transport requests. For troubleshooting purposes, however, system administrators are permitted to set these project status switches to “on”. Double-click the project status switch that you want to change (Requests cannot be created, for example). The switch is set to “on” in the system. You can now create transport requests for a particular project without having to use Change Request Management.
Check
You can check the configuration of requests for change and display details for the individual results. For more information, see Configuration Check.
Task Lists
You can view all task lists, change documents, project and maintenance cycles, and other data assigned to the project, and can display related detail information.
Trans. Monitor
Go to transaction monitor for list display of service transactions
