SMTM Defect Correction - Assigning Project

Hi

I'm just testing Defect Correction (we are using ZMTM).

We have Project as a mandatory field (same as standard) and you can ONLY choose projets which have a Change Cycle of TEST.  This is no problem and I understand why this is the case.

However, I think I may have found a bug. After you have created the defect, you can click on More > Change Project Assignment.  When you do this, you can suddenly choose ANY Project. For example, I just reassigned a defect to a project with a Change Cycle of DEVELOPMENT WITHOUT RELEASE (and it worked).

Is this a bug or is there a reason why you can do this?

Thanks

Shaun

Thanks Dan.

I've actually sorted this out. If you go to /TMWFLOW/VC_PHMD in SM34 you will see what actions are allowed in each phase.

Development without Release had TEST_ASSIGN (which means you can assign existing defects to this phase). Where as Test had TEST_CREATE (create new defecst against this phase).

I have modified it so we can create defects in below phases:

Development without Release

Development with Release

Test

However, I've only allowed transports to be created in Test

Thanks!!

Hi Shaun,

This function available for all types of CD's normal change, defect change and urgent change.

And I think, there is no check on release cycle phase, yet.

Also a problem may be a lack of customizing in AIC_SETTINGS for predecessor / successor checks.

Check it, if problem still there, create OSS.

Hi Khaja

Thanks for the links but I know all that information.

If you read my above post, I'm specifically asking about the ability to ASSIGN A NEW PROJECT to the defect AFTER it has been created.

When you do this you can choose a project that is in a phase OTHER THAN TEST. I'm assuming this is a bug?  Or is there a reason for this?

Thanks
Shaun
