High Enhanced ServiceNow Integration Framework Templates with Reassign Function The ITSM ServiceNow (SNow) templates have been enhanced to include a reassign function. This enhancement introduces the ability to modify the project or destination using the action MODIF_TR, providing greater flexibility in managing assignments within the integration framework. Integration Framework, ServiceNow SC-1326
High Assignment Popup for ITSM Issues When Adding External Transport Requests In this version, transport requests can now be assigned to ITSM issues while being added to the TM Monitor via the "+" button.Steps to activate the feature:
  1. Ensure the ITSM system is correctly configured for the ADD2TM action.
  2. For adding transport requests previously assigned to a ticket, confirm the ITSM system is configured for the REASSIGN action.
Once transport requests are added to TM, the ITSM assignment popup will now appear on the screen.Additionally, a prior issue causing inconsistencies in TM attributes during ticket assignment for transport requests—released, re-added, and reassigned without initial ticket assignments—has been resolved.

This enhancement prevents release closure if any transports are still pending, providing better control over the transport process and ensuring completeness. SC-1730

Fixed Bugs

Product Transport Management
Priority Title Release Note Release Note Solution Components Reference
High SE16 Permission Required When Releasing a Transport Request A bug was identified where the system triggered an additional standard authorization check for SE16 permissions when releasing a transport. This occurred due to an incorrect check for the TM BAdI activation status, which unnecessarily invoked SE16-related authorizations. The check for TM BAdI activation has been adjusted to prevent triggering additional standard authorization checks. The program has been corrected. BAdI, Roles/Authorizations SC-1795
High Msg Server Group Field Does Not Allow Lowercase Characters In the maintenance of Systems & Groups, the "Msg Server Group" field was incorrectly restricted to uppercase characters, preventing users from entering lowercase values. The program has been corrected to allow both uppercase and lowercase characters in the "Msg Server Group" field. Configuration SC-1808
High JIRA Actions Triggered Incorrectly Without Ticket Assignment JIRA actions were triggered even when ticket assignment was not mandatory, causing the URL to be constructed incorrectly and resulting in a web call error. Web calls for JIRA actions are now triggered only when a ticket assignment is present.
The program has been corrected. 		Integration Framework, Jira_App SC-1761
High "Delete Personal Queue" Button Missing in Japanese An issue was identified where the "Delete Personal Queue" button was not displayed in the queue management system when using the Japanese language interface. This inconsistency has been resolved, and the button now appears correctly for users accessing the system in Japanese. The program has been corrected. Personal Queue, UI SC-1759
High Short Dump UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION When Managing TM Releases Under Lock A short dump with error type UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION occurred when users attempted to add or remove Transport Requests from Transport Management (TM) Releases while Release Management was blocked by another user. After a one-minute wait, the system displayed a correct error message indicating that the TM Releases feature was locked. However, dismissing the message caused the program to crash. This issue has been resolved, ensuring the program remains stable when the lock message is dismissed. The program has been corrected. Release Management SC-1775
High "Type" Field Not Populated During Excel Export A bug was identified where the "Type" field was not populated during data exports to Excel, resulting in incomplete export results. This issue has been resolved, and the "Type" field is now correctly included in all Excel exports. The program has been corrected. UI, Workflow Monitor SC-1794
High Empty Node Displayed for Modifiable Transport Requests In previous versions, empty rows were erroneously displayed in the "Modifiable Requests" tab of the TM Monitor. This issue has been resolved, and empty rows will no longer appear. The program has been corrected. Workflow Monitor SC-1762
Product Synchronization Management
Priority Title Release Note Release Note Solution Components Reference
High Missing Transport Requests in Detail Section When Task List Is Deactivated An issue was identified where Transport Requests were not shown in the detail section of the object view if they were not part of the Task List and the Task List setting was deactivated. This caused incomplete information, affecting the tracking and management of object versions. With this update, the detail section now includes Transport Requests that are not in the Task List when the setting is deactivated. These requests are marked with a red dash status icon for clear identification. The program has been corrected. Customizing, UI, Workbench SC-1705
High Request import did not work Upon attempting to import a transport request, no error message was displayed and the import process did not proceed. The issue was related to the source client of the external transport request being different from target client. Updating the SELECT statements on the relevant tables to ensure that they work in both cases. Synchronization, UI, Workbench SC-1778

  • Destination
 The program has been corrected. Integration Framework, Jira_App SC-1763
High Validation of Project/Destination Assignment for OData Service 'Release' To prevent project/destination assignment errors during the release of transport requests, the OData service TM_GW_SRV has been enhanced with additional checks:
  • The service validates whether the specified project/destination is allowed for assignment, as configured in the development system.
  • If the project/destination is not provided, the service determines the appropriate project/destination for the transport request.
  • If only one project/destination is identified, it is automatically assigned to the transport request before release.
Example API Call:PUT
/sap/opu/odata/RTC/TM_GW_SRV/TR_TO_TMSet(CrudMode='C',TransportReq='MT1K903723',ExternalUser='TestUser')Payload:
{ 
  "ProjectName": "Realtech",
  "DestName": "default2001",
  "ExternalUser": "user"
}
 The program has been corrected to ensure proper validation and automatic assignment of project/destination during transport request releases. Integration Framework SC-1779
