First steps in the test system
Open transaction /N/RTC/TM
Open the transaction /N/RTC/TM and then click the “Monitor” button:
Central overview of all transports
In the central overview of all transports, you can now see the number of transports per stage and status on the left:
- Status “Queue” means that a shipment is not yet in the approval process. Note: This status is not relevant for the test environment.
- The status “Signature” contains all transports that are pending approval for the respective stage.
- The status “Current” contains all transports that have already been completely approved (professionally and technically) and are waiting for the next import job for the respective system.
Approve transports
Transports in “Signature” status can be approved by selecting them and clicking the “Make approval” button:
SmartChange then performs a quality check of the transport for any collisions, etc.(automatic quality assurance).
Check for possible collisions etc.
If Critical Objects, Special Aspects, Collisions (e.g. outruns) and/or Dependencies are present for a transport, a popup window now appears showing the various check criteria (e.g. collision check):
After accepting all check criteria, you can now approve the transport(s) by clicking the “Approve” button:
Transport import
After approval, the transport changes to the “Current” status. The blue diamond in the “Imported” field indicates that the transport is now imported.
Note: In the test environment, import jobs are always executed every minute (default).
After successful import
After successful import, the marking changes (green square):
Note: After the import has been completed, the transport is automatically moved to the next level in the “Signature” status by a switcher job (e.g. from the “Quality” level and “Current” status to the “Production” level and “Signature” status). This enables automated deployment of developments.
Audit-proof documentation
After marking transports and clicking on the “Request LifeCycle” button, an audit-proof summary of all relevant information is displayed:
