Transport Analysis
Scenario Analysis
For the scenario analysis, choose a QGM scenario on the Quality Gate Management Overview
screen. You can trigger the analysis choosing Scenario Transport
. Select Transport Analysis
. A table of analysis results will appear based on the transport track system belonging to the respective scenario.
On the transport analysis UI, for each transport track, the statistics include the following:
Open Transports
: All modifiable transport requests in the development system
Released Transports
: All transport requests released in the development system
Waiting for Import
: All transport requests that are in the import buffer of the target system and have not been imported yet
Imported Transports
: All transport requests that are imported into the target system and that have been imported at least once regardless of being in the buffer or not
Import Errors
: All transport requests import with errors in the target system
Sequence Violations
: All transport requests that are imported without following the sequence of release
Missing Imports:
All transport requests that are released but not imported into the target system. Those transport requests may or may not be in the buffer of target system yet.
To view the individual transport details, click on the corresponding statistics number (except Sequence Violations
). From here, you can navigate to the transport overview on SAP GUI by choosing the link of the transport number.
When you click on the number in the Sequence Violations
column, a comparisons view appears. All released transport requests are displayed in the left table, while all imported transport requests for that target system are displayed in the right table. If a sequence violation exists, the corresponding records should be highlighted in orange in both tables.
System Analysis and Request Analysis
On the Quality Gate Management Overview
screen, you can perform a system analysis and a request analysis by choosing the Transport Analysis
pushbutton above the scenario list table.
System Analysis:
Select a source system and a target system to compare. The provided dropdown list contains all active track systems in the transport track table. After selecting a source system, the target system will be automatically filtered, which means that only subsequent systems connected with transport routes are kept. The same applies the other way around.
You can also specify the start date of the analysis. The default value is 2 months prior to today. If no start date is entered, the analysis results display the comparison between the systems without time restrictions.
The system analysis result statistics are similar to the scenario analysis. However, the result is restricted by the start date if entered. The rules on how the time restriction works for each statistic are as follows:
a) Open Transports: Restricting that the transport requests must be created between the start date and today and are currently in open status
b) Release Transports and Waiting for Import: Restricting that the transport requests must be released between the start date and today (regardless of when they were created)
c) Imported Transports and Import Errors: Restricting that the transport requests must be imported between the start date and today (regardless of when they were created or released)
d) Sequence Violations and Missing Imports: When counting released transport requests, it uses rule b) and when counting imported transport requests, it uses rule c)
Request Analysis:
Enter a transport request number or search a transport request using the search help for the analysis. The analysis result list contains two parts: basic information and a tracking analysis. The tracking data of the transport request indicates when the transport request is released / imported into the entire transport track.
