How to sort the CR import queue?

[Former Member]

Hi everybody,

we have to import more than 200 CRs from quality to production environment.

We want to do it in a massive way and, most important, by giving a precise order to the import queue.

Is there any way to to this?

Thank you very much,

If you mark all 200 in the STMS queue and have them imported at the same time (using the "small lorry" button), then the system will automatically determine the correct import sequence, which is the sequence in which they were added to the PRD queue, which in turn is the sequence in which they where imported into the QA system, which I guess would be correct in most cases.

Do you want a different sequence, and why?

Hi Thomas, thanks for your reply.

Actually we don't have a real quality environment, consider it if there is only development and production.

This is why maybe the automatic queue is not correct.

Do you know any BAPI or something to speed the work?

Thank you very much,

This is delicate stuff, I would not recommend anything else than STMS or certified third party solutions. Even more so, since I don't know enough about your system landscape.

How do you manually determine the correct import sequence? Timestamp of release and export from DEV? Any other way?

You could also try bundling the objects in your 200 requests into a new collective request in DEV (via SE03 tools) and move this one through, then removing the 200 obsolete ones from the queue(s). This works if the current versions of all involved objects in DEV is still consistent, and no additional changes have been done in DEV (you would see the conflicts when trying to lock the objects inside the collective request).
