<div>I am interested to know how you keep the number ranges in <SPAN class=correction id="">sync</SPAN> in the two environments. For instance <FONT face=Arial> #90200038 may have already been used up in <SPAN class=correction id="">DEV</SPAN> for a new <SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN> for the next release. </FONT></div>

<div dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=278023915-13032007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>You really want to number based upon your release strategy. We use 901 in our <SPAN class=correction id="">HR</SPAN> system and 902 in our <SPAN class=correction id="">ERP</SPAN> system so that when we see a <SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN> number we automatically know in which instance it resides. We keep these same prefixes for both <SPAN class=correction id="">DEV</SPAN> and Prod Support (the only two systems in which we develop). The reason we do this is so that regardless of which path we are currently on the <SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN> will have the same number when it reaches prod. For example:</FONT></SPAN></div>
<UL dir=ltr>
<LI>
<div align=left><SPAN class=278023915-13032007></SPAN><SPAN class=278023915-13032007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>In <SPAN class=correction id="">Dev</SPAN> we create <SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN> #90200037 and move it through <SPAN class=correction id="">Integ</SPAN> and QA into Production.</FONT></SPAN></div>
<LI>
<div align=left><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><FONT color=#0000ff><SPAN class=278023915-13032007>Later</SPAN><SPAN class=278023915-13032007> our <SPAN class=correction id="">Dev</SPAN> to Prod path is closed for changes and only used for a new Release project. Perhaps we need to make a quick change to the #90200037 design by adding a <SPAN class=correction id="">subflow</SPAN>. We would make our change in <SPAN class=correction id="">ProdSupport</SPAN>. We create the <SPAN class=correction id="">subflow</SPAN> in both <SPAN class=correction id="">Dev</SPAN> and <SPAN class=correction id="">ProdSupport</SPAN> using the same number sequence #90200038, and add it to #90200037. The <SPAN class=correction id="">ProdSupport</SPAN> <SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN> is quickly moved into production. The <SPAN class=correction id="">Dev</SPAN> <SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN> is a good representation of what is in production so that any testing or Release changes are kept in <SPAN class=correction id="">synch</SPAN>. Eventually when the Release is moved into production, the Dev <SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN> will replace the <SPAN class=correction id="">ProdSupport</SPAN> workflow, but the numbers remain the same.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></FONT></div>

Thanks for the info <SPAN class=correction id="">Ronen</SPAN>...<br>
but I've have couple of doubts in this...<br>
I've maintained the number ranges like this, in the development system. <br>
999 for <SPAN class=correction id="">DEV</SPAN><br>
900 fro QA<br>
910 for <SPAN class=correction id="">PRD</SPAN><br>
Is this <SPAN class=correction id="">ok</SPAN> to do this just in Development system or should i also do this in QA and <SPAN class=correction id="">PRD</SPAN>??? <br>
<br>
Secondly,<br>
when I use report program <SPAN class=correction id="">RHMOVE30</SPAN> to create transport request for my <SPAN class=correction id="">Org</SPAN> structure, Is that enough if I transport Organ<SPAN class=correction id="">iza</SPAN>tion Unit in top hierarchy and will those Org Units and positions below automatically inc<SPAN class=correction id="">lud</SPAN>ed into that request or should I add each Org unit one by one into the request??? <br>
<br>
Regards,<br>

<div><SPAN><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>For the number prefix: there is no real need to maintain this in your QA & PROD environment since you probably won't be doing any development in those environment. you can transport the prefix setting from <SPAN class=correction id="">DEV</SPAN> to those systems just in order to get a "green traffic light" in transaction <SPAN class=correction id="">SWU3</SPAN> in those systems.</FONT></SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </div>
<div><SPAN><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Regarding <SPAN class=correction id="">org</SPAN> units and positions: you can use report <SPAN class=correction id="">RHMOVE30</SPAN> to transport your <SPAN class=correction id="">org</SPAN>. structure between systems. the reason you don't get a change request prompt each time you modify your <SPAN class=correction id="">org</SPAN>. plan in <SPAN class=correction id="">dev</SPAN> is probably because the 'transport link' for <SPAN class=correction id="">HR</SPAN> objects is deactivated in your <SPAN class=correction id="">DEV</SPAN> system.</FONT></SPAN></div>

Hi,<br>
We are implementing <SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN> for our company. We di<SPAN class=correction id="">d init</SPAN>ial configuration, Prefix number config and stuffs. We are using 999 in development system, should we use the same in QA and production system also????? <br>
We have created simple organizational structure with various positions and users assigned to the positions. how to transport this Organization structure to QA and <SPAN class=correction id="">PRD</SPAN> systems?? <SPAN class=correction id="">Coz</SPAN>, we don see any transport requests for this.. even it didn't ask for saving in transport request when we created it. After transporting, will those position numbers be same as Position numbers in QA and subsequently <SPAN class=correction id="">PRD</SPAN>??? Because we have directly used these <SPAN class=correction id="">postions</SPAN> as agents in <SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN> tasks... Are we going in right track??? What can be other issues we might possibly run into??? <br>
Thanks for your help...<br>
<br>
