Examples of risks in SAP Transport Management
Various risks can occur in SAP Change and Transport Management that affect the integrity and quality of transport requests. Insufficient checking of these risks can lead to problems in the production environment that have a negative impact on business operations.
For example, if several transports are carried out simultaneously or in quick succession, there is a risk that changes will collide or overtake each other.
This can lead to unexpected behavior or errors in the system.
To actively counter these risks, various quality checks are integrated into SmartChange to ensure that every shipment is thoroughly checked. To actively counter these risks, various quality checks are integrated into SmartChange to ensure that every shipment is thoroughly checked. These quality checks help to minimize risks in SAP Transport Management and ensure the integrity and reliability of the systems.
With our solution, you can ensure that your SAP landscape remains efficient and trouble-free.
Collisions and Overtakers
Through extensive automated checks, REALTECH SmartChange makes it possible to avoid typical risks for productive SAP systems. The collision check indicates when identical or overlapping objects are in separate SAP transport and if there is a risk of version overtakers.
Overwrite
If version overtakers with corresponding authorization are ignored, REALTECH SmartChange even detects impending overwriters in retrospect (downgrade protection).
Critical objects
SmartChange checks transports for predefined critical objects (e. g.: Application data, number ranges, structural changes to large tables, etc.).
Special aspects
In addition, transports can be checked for certain criteria (special aspects) in order to highlight them in the workflow and thus increase SAP system security. An easy-to-use template helps with quick and flexible customization.
Object dependencies
Logical object dependencies within the SAP landscape can be defined quickly and easily using dependency notes. When incorporating several SAP lines, cross-SAP line dependencies between transports can be taken into account. You can influence both the sequence of transports and the way they are grouped together.
Check for completeness
When checking transports for completeness (return code forecast), the system analyzes whether objects required in the context of a change exist within the transport or in the target system before an import into a target system is authorized.
The completeness check is possible on all levels (transport, change, release). It is fully integrated into the workflow and works comprehensively in transports and target systems.
