The user interface logic has been updated to allow modifications to the priority of exceptions in the Quality Assurance/Collisions settings. Quality Assurance SC-1904
Medium Proposal Conflict Leading to Job Deletion When Scheduling Simultaneous Proposals Users experienced an issue when creating two proposals scheduled for the exact same time, which resulted in a single job being generated for both. If one of the proposals was deleted, the associated job was also removed, causing the remaining proposal to lose its scheduled job. The program has been corrected. The scheduling logic for proposals has been updated to ensure that multiple proposals can coexist without conflict. Queues/Proposals SC-1448
High Short Dumps When Calling Function Module /RTC/TM_CHANGE_LICENSE_KEY in SC2015 System Users experienced short dumps when calling the function module /RTC/TM_CHANGE_LICENSE_KEY in the SC2015 system. The issue occurred in a mixed landscape, where adding a 2015 system with System * Groups was impossible. The dump was caused by incorrect handling of system group parameters during the function module call. The program has been corrected. The handling of system group parameters during the function module call has been fixed to prevent short dumps. Security SC-1896
High Loss of Non-ITSM Attributes During Transport Request Reassignment in TM Previously, when a modifiable Transport Request (TR) had additional attributes besides ITSM attributes, these attributes were lost during the reassignment process in Transport Management (TM). This issue occurred because the reassignment function did not properly handle the preservation of non-ITSM attributes, leading to data loss. The program has been corrected. The reassignment function now properly preserves non-ITSM attributes during the Transport Request reassignment process. TM Attribute, Workflow Monitor SC-1905
High RFC Connection Errors Due to Missing Function Module /RTC/TM_IF_GET_RFC_DEST in Mixed Landscape Environment The function module /RTC/TM_IF_GET_RFC_DEST was called with RFC in a mixed landscape environment including both 2019 and 2015 systems. The function module does not exist in the 2015 system, causing the call to be ignored and resulting in connection errors. The program has been corrected. The function module call has been adjusted to handle mixed landscape environments more effectively, preventing connection errors. TM Connectivity SC-1913
High Incorrect Error Flagging in Transport Environment Check Due to Locked or Unavailable Systems Users have reported inaccuracies in the System and Groups check. During the transport environment check, if a system is locked or unavailable, all subsequent systems are incorrectly flagged as errors. This issue caused confusion as it did not accurately reflect the status of each system. The error occurred in the transport environment check process, leading to incorrect error messages and misidentification of system statuses. The program has been corrected. The transport environment check process has been updated to accurately reflect the status of each system, preventing incorrect error flagging for subsequent systems when one is locked or unavailable. UI SC-1887
High Error Saving Modified TM Attributes for Modifiable Transport Requests Due to Action Log Failure An error occurred when saving the modified TM attributes for modifiable Transport Requests (TRs). The action log was not saved, which prevented the changes from being recorded properly. This issue was identified during the modification process, causing inconsistencies in the attribute data. The program has been corrected. The action log saving mechanism for modified TM attributes in Transport Requests has been fixed to ensure proper recording of changes. SC-1899
