Target
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| SAP System ID | System ID of the target SAP system |
| Description | Short description of the target |
| Group Label | An optional label to group together common types of systems (e.g. “Business Warehouse”) |
| Role | This option allows you to group together separate SAP systems by their role, for the purpose of creating dependencies between transport requests on separate transport paths to support Release Orchestration. Please refer to section Defining Target Roles to learn how to create a target role. |
Clients
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Clients | The group of clients within the SAP system that transport requests will be imported into. Enter each client separated by a comma and a space (e.g. “100, 200, 300”). |
| Execute client copy SCC1 automatically on Transport Form creation | Check this option if you want SCC1 to be automatically done to other configured clients on Transport Form creation. |
| Execute client copy SCC1 automatically on transport release | Check this option if you want SCC1 to be automatically done to other configured clients on transport release. |
Miscellaneous
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Source system for transport requests created in SAP | Check this option to allow team members to complete Transport Forms for transport requests created in this system. This option must be enabled for each development system in your system landscape. Transport requests without a Transport Form appear in a team member’s list of open transport requests, in the main window. |
| Hide this target within ActiveControl. | Check this option to prevent this target from appearing in the main ActiveControl window. You might enable this option when the SAP system no longer exists, or if the system does not exist yet. Hidden targets may still appear on a transport path. |
| Skip import queue for virtual targets | Virtual targets can be used to facilitate additional Approvals (Inboxes, Test Queues, Outboxes) as part of a complex workflow. A Virtual Target has no import queue; Transport Forms moving past that Virtual Target import queue will show as “Mark as Imported” for that location. The Virtual Target can be given the same SID as the Target in which you want the additional approval point(s) – or it can be given a dummy SID to easily identify that particular approval point(s). If the target system is unavailable or is a virtual target system use this option to skip the Import Queue, but still stop in the other control points for approvals. |
| Bypass all control points in this target (when system is offline) | This will skip all of the Import Queue, Test Queue and Inbox/Outbox for the system. In most cases, this is the option to use when a system is offline / unavailable. |
| After approval of items at the … on this target, tasks are automatically locked | Select one of the control points if Tasks are to be automatically locked after approval. This will prevent further allocation to Transport Forms. |
| After approval of items at the … on this target, automatically release transports | Select one of the control points if transports are to be automatically released after a specified control point approval. |
| Automatically run general analysis on testing approval | Check this option to run the General Analysis automatically as part of the ‘Save & Approve Testing’ action on a Test Queue |
| Allow test entry results for my transport on this target | Check this option to facilitate transport-level Test Queue signoff. Eg if you want a Developer to sign off their Unit Testing when there are other transports on the same BT that are not yet tested. Please refer to ‘Partial Testing’ section later in this Administration Guide for further information. |
| Automatically approve items where no critical analysis issues found in | Check this option if you want the configured Analysers to run automatically, and Transport Forms with no issues to be automatically approved. |
Consolidated Import Queues
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Consolidated Import Queue Options | Does not require consolidated import queue options: Use this option for targets where consolidated import queues are not required Provides consolidated import queue for related targets: Use this option for targets that are to be used as a consolidated target Contributes to a consolidated import queue provided by: Use this option to link a target to a consolidated import queue target so the import queues can be shared. • Target: In this case the consolidated target must be selected • Consolidated queue visible?: This should be switched on to make the queue visible in the normal ActiveControl paths underneath the main import queue. Please refer to the Consolidated Import Queues section for details about how to set this up. |
