Fixed Bugs

Priority Title Release Note Release Note Solution Components Reference
Medium OData Call to Create Transport Request with CTS Project Ends with Short Dump MESSAGE_TYPE_UNKNOWN

The OData to create a transport request ends with runtime error MESSAGE_TYPE_UNKNOWN when an incorrect CTS Project information was filled.

Universal Resource ID: /sap/opu/odata/RTC/TM_GW_SRV/Transport_RequestSet

The termination occurred in ABAP program or include "/RTC/TM_CL_CON_LOG============CP", in "ADD_INTERNAL_LOGS". The main program was "SAPMHTTP".

The program has been corrected.

OData Services SC-1540
Medium Short Dump ASSIGN_TYPE_CONFLICT in TM QA > Critical Objects > Template

A short dump occured with the error ASSIGN_TYPE_CONFLICT when attempting to use the buttons Insert, Change, and Delete in the Critical Objects Template within TM Quality Aspects. These buttons were erroneously displayed on the screen, causing confusion and leading to the dump.

The program has been corrected. The buttons Insert, Change, and Delete have been removed from the Critical Objects Template screen in TM Quality Aspects.

Quality Assurance, UI SC-1531
Medium TM Attribute F4 Help Issue with Default User Exit Implementation

When defining a TM attribute, users have the option to define default values and enable the value help. This results in having an input help available when assigning the attribute to a transport.

Nevertheless, this functionality does not work anymore if the ‘/RTC/TM_UEX1_TM_DYNP_ATTRIB_V' function module implementation is used for user exit ‘TM_DYNP_ATTRIB_VALUES’. This default user exit implementation is part of the out-of-the-box feature 'Attribute-based Scheduled Import’.

The program has been corrected.

TM Attribute SC-1532
Medium Typo and Missing Translation when Manually Adding TR to TM

When manually adding a transport request to Transport Management (TM), users encountered a typo in the description along with missing German translation. This resulted in inconsistencies and potential confusion during the TR addition process.

The typo in the description has been corrected, and missing German translations have been added.
