Transports

The last normal transports to Production will take place on Tuesday, November 9, 2010. After that date, a freeze of non-critical transports to Production will be in effect until after the Support Pack Project Go Live date. The normal Production transport import schedule will resume on Thursday, December 16, 2010. Ordinary development for support and/or enhancements will continue in SF2 during this period. Migrations to the Test environments (SF5/SH1) and Production will be limited to critical fixes that need to be moved to Production as soon as possible. During the freeze, a special transport procedure will be enforced for changes to SAP. This section explains the approval process. It lists the necessary approvals and documentation, and what steps you need to take in ZUTTREQ. Questions about this process should be directed to John Tuttle, Transport Coordinator at jrtuttle@mit.edu or 617-324-0097.

Development/Transport Procedures

...

Development will be performed in SF2 both before and after the support and enhancement packs have been applied. While the support and enhancement packs are being applied to SF2, SF2 will be unavailable for development. If an emergency arises during this period, SF8 will be used for development.

Transport path SF2 -> SF5/SH1 (& SH3 for regression testing)

ApproverApprovers to begin the development work:

  • One of the business members of the Steering Committee
  • Frank Quern (PM), Bart Dahlstrom (backup)
  • Wendy Bastos (QA), Amanda Gilbert (backup)

The functional team must follow the standard QA Issue Resolution procedure, which includes the PEC and associated test cases or an SAP mini-spec.

Approvers for importing transports to production:

  • Refer QA critical transport procedures

All transports must be associated with a Request Tracker (RT) ticket recorded in the Functional Team's Support queue and within the  RT SAP::Test Issue queue under the project name 'SAP Support Pack 2010'. These transports must be double tested, once in the production support path (SF2-> SF5/SH1) and then again in the Support Pack path (SF2-> SH3), before the transport(s) can be imported into production.
