Is it possible to create customer specific "manual" task in ABAP-PCA?

Hello Experts,

we are still testing ABAP-PCA and want to enhance the existing content by copying and applying changes on the existing copied content. I have tried to find a way to create my "own" manual task. Although there is a lot of standard content, I haven't found a way to implement my own class to be covered in STC01. Is there a way to do so, or is it even not foreseen to create own manual tasks?

Thanks in advance for your feedback and support.

With best regards...

...Hans

Hello Experts,

it is possible to create your own manual task? Yes, it is!!!!:

I've copied the standard manual step with class: CL_STCT_SC_CONFIRM_COPY

and changed the description plus the text element. Afterwards I've been able to

include the copied class/step into my specific tasklist. Worked fine.

With best regards...

Hello Hans,

Good to know that you found the solution.

Here's some more relevant information on this topic.

With task manager 8 and task content 7, you could use the following tasks:

CL_STCT_SC_CONFIRM_COPY

Confirmation: System Copy executed?    MANUAL_STEP

CL_STCT_SC_CONFIRM_FW_DISABLE

Confirmation: Firewall disabled?    MANUAL_STEP

CL_STCT_SC_CONFIRM_PREP_BDLS     
Confirmation: BDLS Prepare Task Successfully finished?    MANUAL_STEP

CL_STCTT_SIMPLE_MANUAL

Test task: Manual action; Confirmation required    TESTTASK

@1.,2.,3.

Tasks are used in Refresh scenario of BW and Basis. Therefore they could be not used twice in a task list. In customer task list (z-tl). They could used it once.

@ 4.

They could be used at any case in any task lists additional to task 1. To 3. There is a disclaimer in the documentation of task 4. But it should work.

Best Regards,

Adarsh

Hallo Hans,

Of course, it is possible to customize the task lists to your specific needs.

As a starting point, please refer to the official documentation for ABAP PCA (below):

http://help.sap.com/lvment20

You will find ABAP post-copy automation installation and configuration guides here. In the configuration guide, check section (8) Customizing Post Copy Automation Content in particular. You can create your own copies of standard task lists and customize them by integrating your specific procedures, reports etc. and also create different variants for a specific task list with different parameter values.

Hope this helps and lemme know if you have additional questions.

Best Regards,

Hallo Adarsh,

I did already investigation and I agree, it is possible to create my own task list but I haven't found a way to create my own specific task. The task I want to have is a manual check or a manual step to be done by my system administrator. As soon this task is confirmed the next step can be executed again automatically.

I have seen test tasks - but there it is mentioned not to use in productive environment.

So again - is there a way to create my own manual specific task?

Best regards...
