Function documentationStarting an Import: Scheduling

 

There are two options to import transport requests, including transports of copies. When you execute the import task, a dialog window containing these options is displayed.

Features

  • Immediate transport

    All transport requests for this project that are in the import buffer are transported to the test system immediately.

  • Scheduled transport

    The IT operator schedules a start time for the import, that is, a specific date and time, or a period, for example, every 15 minutes, hourly or daily.

Note Note

While it is also possible to use transaction STMS to schedule periodic imports, we do not recommend that you use this option. If you still want to use it, perform the following steps:

  1. In transaction STMS in the quality system, choose Import Overview and select the target system for the import.

  2. On the Import Queue screen, select a project and choose Filters. The system displays all transport requests for the selected project.

  3. Choose Start of the navigation path Queue Next navigation step Start Import End of the navigation path and enter the intervals for importing transport requests, for example, every 30 minutes.

  4. After double-clicking an entry and choosing Maintain Project Status Switch, change the entry to Requests can be imported. This schedules an import job. At the scheduled time, the system checks whether the import is allowed and carries out the import.

End of the note.
