SCC4-No changes Allowed

[Former Member]

Hi,

As per the Auditors infstructions we need to change the SCC4 settings in Production Environment to No Changes allowed from Changes without automatic recording..

Could you please let us know what is actually meant by that and what would happen if we chaNge that option in Production environment..

Hi Satya,

Changes without automatic recording means that when you change some cross client objects by default there will not be any transport request generated you have to manually generate the transport requests.This type of option should never be used in production environment.

No Changes allowed this is the standard option to be set in production environment.This option does not allow cross-client object to be changed.Change is only possible in the system through importing transport requests.

Reward points if helpfull.

Hello Vamshi,

This option is not for cross client objects but for client specific objects.

Hello Satya,

However what Vamshi said is fully correct. Don't use this option. This would mean that client specific customizing is changable in production which certainly as I prerceive isn't desirable. Rather convince the auditors for the option NO changes allowed.

Hello Ruchit,

I think this is for cross-client object like abap reports, though i agree with you that it is also for client specific objects also.

Correct me if i am wrong.

Hello Vamshi,

Very technically speaking ABAP reports are not cross client objects but are Repository objects.

Also settings for cross client and client specific customizing are different with in SCC4 and are independent of each other. For example if you select Radio Button No Changes Allowed for Tabstrip Changes and Transports for client specific objects then you wont be able to change client specific customizing but that will have no bearing to cross client customizing which will purely depend on what settings have been maintained under Cross Client objects.
