Opportunities for Change & Release Management
IT will invest less in developing specialists and more in becoming integrators
of IT services. Change Management is key to be owned by IT for control
Change Management in Intelligent Enterprise environments needs to
fulfill audit requirements
Expectation to get products faster to the market and drive growth
higher while at the same time increase efficiencies in deployments
Intelligent Enterprise architectures facilitate to govern environment
more reliable due to higher degree of automation

SAP EarlyWatch Alert workspace:
The central landing page that gives a
comprehensive overview of your system
landscape regarding stability, configuration,
hardware utilization, and performance.
It includes details on Software Change and
Transport Management and focuses on:
• Failed Changes
i.e. import errors or sequence errors
• Emergency Changes
i.e. transports created in production or
with short transition time
How can the new Early Watch Alert Workspace support transparency?
SAP ONE support launchpad is central landing space for system health checks
launchpad.support.sap.com

A set of transport requests can be checked for
import errors before the import into a target system
is done.
 Following checks are available:
– Cross Reference: Return Code 8 prediction
– Sequence Check: Wrong transport sequence
– Software Component: Wrong software component
for SAP standard objects and SAP Notes
– Import Time in Source System: Sums up the
import time of the individual transports in the source
system
– Online Import Check: Checks the criticality of the
transported objects and dependent objects when
they are imported during productive system usage

 ABAP Test Cockpit (ATC) Check is automatically triggered
by the Change Request Management/ Quality Gate
Management Workflow, when the Transport Request is
released.
 ATC Check requests technical object information from the
SAP S/4HANA Simplification Database.
 Result of ATC Check is provided to Enhanced Retrofit Tool
and determines the Retrofit Classification for the Workbench
Object to be retrofitted.

classification (object with conflict) for the respective
customizing object on the Retrofit list,
 In case that SAP did change the data model with SAP
S/4HANA the customizing object will be classified as ‘Manual
Retrofit’ (red classification).
