Defining a Queue Based on a Software Component

Use

You want to define a Support Package queue for a particular software component.

Procedure

...

1. On the initial screen in Support Package Manager, choose Display/Define.

○ If this queue calculation method has been selected as the default setting, the Component Selection dialog box appears.

○ Otherwise, start by choosing Individual Components to display the Component Selection dialog box.

A list of installed software components (for example, SAP_BASIS, SAP_HR, SAP_BW) is displayed.

2. Select the required components.

3. The current queue appears. This queue contains the Support Packages available for the selected component in your system, and, if necessary, Support Packages of other components, Conflict Resolution Transports (CRTs) and other Add-On Support Packages.

If you want to define the queue for another software component, choose Other Component.

If errors occur during queue definition, see the queue calculation log.

4. You can now do the following:

○ You can limit the queue selection. To do this, select the Support Package that you want to be last in the queue. This recalculates the queue. You can also do this explicitly by choosing Recalculate queue.

You can only select Support Packages belonging to the software components that you have selected (the cursor changes its appearance accordingly). The Support Packages that belong to the queue are highlighted in green. The Support Packages that no longer belong to the queue are still visible in the list, from where you can select them again.

○ If the displayed queue meets your requirements, you can confirm it by choosing Confirm Queue and closing this window.

Result

You have defined the queue. You can now Include Modification Adjustment Transports or Import Support Packages contained in the queue.
