The SAP CTS+ (Change and Transport System Plus) integration in Usage Engine enables streamlined management of Usage Engine configurations across different environments. SAP CTS+ uses SAP TMS (Transport Management System) as the engine to move changes. This integration allows for greater control, flexibility, and efficiency when moving changes between development, test, and production systems. You can find more information on SAP CTS+ in the https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_NETWEAVER_740/4a368c163b08418890a406d413933ba7/48c4300fca5d581ce10000000a42189c.html?version=7.4.18.
Note!
Configuration exports in Usage Engine are referred to as ‘Changes’ in the these SAP CTS+ documents.
Key Features of the SAP CTS+ Integration in Usage Engine
Simplified Configuration Management: Manage regular system exports and workflow packages seamlessly through the SAP CTS+ interface. Please note that Development Toolkit bundles are excluded from this integration.
Flexible Import Options: You can easily import configurations to any system in your landscape using CTS+. The source systems for imports can be customized—either allowing all systems or limited to specific ones, as defined by the
cts.source.systems
property. For more information, see Platform Properties(4.3).Decoupled Export Process: With loose coupling between export and transport, exports are triggered separately from the CTS+ transport process. Use the System Export tool in Desktop, or the mzcli command line tool, to create export files, which you then upload to CTS+ for transport and deployment. See Using mzcli(4.3).
