How to delete Open Activities in the DTR Web UI? Functions are missing...

Hi@all,

we have some problems with open activities and files that are checked-out.

To solve this we found this desciption by SAP:

"Deleting Open Activities in the DTR Web UI

Since open activities can be a problem if they cannot be found any longer - for example if a developer

PC crashed - there is a function in the DTR Web UI to delete such activities (ADMINA permissions are

required).

1. Open the following URL: http://<host>:<port>/devinf and choose the Design Time Repository link.

2. Choose the system-tools link.

3. Choose the Activity search.

4. Navigate to the workspace that contains an open activity that is no longer needed and cannot be deleted by its owner.

5. Search for open activities.

6. For the activity that is no longer needed, choose Revert this activity.

7. Select the Delete the activity resource also checkbox and confirm with Revert.

The activity is reverted and deleted."

But when we go there, we only found "Activity Search" under "...\system-tools\reports\ActivitySearch", not directly under s"ystem-tools" or "administration".

So all functions for reverting or deleting activities are not there (because of reports?!?), we only can watch them.

Where can we found this? How can we delete activities? in some views files are checked-out, in others they are not... and also activities only can be seen here, not in CBS or somwhere else... we try to solve this by deleting "open" activities.

Any idea or help?

thx

Use the Activity Search Report that you mentioned yourself. Then open an activity and use the Dropdown box in the topright corner to Revert the Activity.

Thanks for help, it works (we still "ignore" that dropdown?!? stupid).

Question:

Is there only deleted the activity or also source code is reverted? Waht is with souce code that is actual?

Because we have some activities on projects that work well, but activities are there for 3 years right now. We want to make NW OK...

Activities only contain references to inactive sources. They contain temporary, local versions of the sources that will only get into the DTR when a Check-In is performed. So it's safe to revert activities, since the contained sources aren't in the DTR anyway.

is there a way to delete closed activities? Intention is to bring the old code back. But unfortunately we have activated and checked in the wrong code and want to revert back.
