Hi,

Version Management

Use

This function allows you to:

Create multiple versions of a planned independent requirement

Create planned independent requirement quantities or dates for one material

Label a planned independent requirements as a reference

Create versions of planned independent requirements in simulative mode to see how each version affects the production and procurement plan.

Activities

If you want a planned independent requirement version to be included in the operative planning run, activate it. Inactive planned independent requirements versions are excluded from the operative planning run.

Comparing Versions

Procedure

You can compare versions entered for a material, and you can copy one or all schedule lines from the version you are using for comparison. You can use this function to copy the planned independent requirements or the schedule lines of other materials.

Select the version.

Select Edit ® Compare reqs with ® Reqmts version.

The dialog box Compare With appears.

Enter the material.

Enter the requirements plan number if the version that you want to use for comparison has a requirements plan number.

Enter the requirements type.

Enter the plant in which the version to be used for comparison is created.

Specify the version to be used for comparison:

– To select one version, select Selected version, and enter the required version.

– To select all active versions, select All active versions.

– To select all active and inactive versions, select All active/inactive versions.

Choose Continue.

Result

The Compare Versions screen appears. On the left-hand side of the screen, the material or the version you selected in the dialog box is displayed. On the right-hand side of the screen, the material you selected on the entry screen is displayed.

Setting Periodicity for Versions

Procedure

To compare versions created using different periodicity, you can change the periodicity of both versions to a common periodicity using Change period.

If the same periodicity has been set for both versions, the system highlights the lines that contain different quantities, and displays the percentage of the deviation in a third column.

To set the periodicity for versions, select Edit ? Change period, and select the periodicity in which you want to compare the versions.

Result

The system highlights the periods in which the versions in comparison differ from each other. It also displays the percentage deviation between the quantity on the right and the quantity on the left in the Dev % column.

Hi

Version management is active for all objects of the ABAP Workbench.

Version management serves different purposes and user groups:

The developer can keep track of his or her work ("What have I changed?")

The developer can restore a previous version by reactivating it.

The system administrator can monitor work ("Which objects were changed and how in a specific time interval?")

It provides a basis for any auditor who requires a complete history of changes.

It enables customers to use the system to adjust data after they have upgraded to a new release.

Activities

You can access version management from the following:

Object Navigator (SE80)

Transport Organizer (SE09)

Display and maintenance transactions for Repository objects.

The main purpose of the Version Management is to Maintain the Versions of the developed objects and to track the changes from version to the next version.

VSS(Visual Source Save) is the general tool used for Version Management purpose.

Or

Goto Utilities --> Version Management --> It will show u all the versions for an object. Select one and press Retrieve. It will first create temporary version. Goto that version and activate the code.

Hope it helps.
