Modifying SolMan Objects
Before modifying a SolMan object, you need to check whether it can be modified or not. Some objects of the imported projects cannot be modified. You can identify them thanks to the
icon.
You first need to activate indicators showing the objects that cannot be modified.
Viewing objects that cannot be modified
To be able to view objects that cannot be modified:
1. From MEGA desktop, select:
• (HOPEX Windows Front-End) Tools > Options.
• (HOPEX Web Front-End) Main menu > Settings > Options.
2. In the left tree, select Status Indicators.
3. Select the Indicate objects that cannot be modified check box.
There is also an indicator showing the objects that can be modified.
When an object cannot be modified by the current user, a symbol representing a closed padlock is displayed:
• In diagrams: the symbol
is displayed under the object.
• In a tree: the symbol
is displayed on the right of the object name.
When an object is locked, the Immutability attribute displays the "Locked" value.
This attribute can be viewed in the
General tab of the property page when you are in Expert metamodel mode (
Options > Respository > Metamodel Access > "Expert").
Motives for automatic object locking
There are different reasons for which an object is automatically locked by HOPEX SAP Blueprint.
An object is locked:
• if a new version of the object has been created.
• if the object displays a value (any value) in SAP Global Attribute
This attribute can be viewed in the
Characteristics tab of the property page.
• if, within the framework of a maintenance project, the object that is part of a solution is not checked-out. This applies to scenarios, processes or process steps.
• if, when importing a transaction, the transaction parent is locked.
