SAP System Maintenance – Hard to track issues • Unlocked remote system/client • Transports in remote systems • Redundant development • Development inventory • Active/Obsolete development • Transport sequencing • Transport list with import status in landscape • Transport Aging • Abandon Transport • Object protection • Valid user but inactive • Locked user with open CTS • Inactive user with open CTS • BDC Aging • IDOC Aging
CTS Manager – Quick Introduction • SAP look and feel, Easy to install, No downtime required. • Objective is to simplify system monitoring and system health check processes. By having quick and efficient health checks in place, organization can reduce TCO and increase ROI. • CTS Manager addresses 3 critical Basis/Security area pain points – • CTS • System Health and monitoring • User Maintenance • CTS Manager also provides a utility desk. • It also provides a sub-tree where organizations can add their favorite transactions, so that
Key pain points - CTS • Quick and efficient transport analysis by various categories. • Where is transport in landscape • Check objects in transport and provide sequence details • Transport released but not imported • Critical object monitoring • System refresh issue • Missed transports • WIP transports • Transport sequencing • Open transports • Build transport queue • Management reporting
Key pain points – System Health and Monitoring • BDC Session Aging • Object protection • Custom development inventory • Remote system monitoring • Critical System Indicator Monitoring -SM50 /SM51 /ST06 /ST13 /SM21
Key pain points – User Maintenance • User statistics • User validity statistics • Inactive users statistics • Batch jobs owned by inactive/locked users • Transport ownership by inactive/locked user • Management reporting
CTS Manager – Road Map 2013 2014 2015 2016 • Transport analysis • Transport import status • Object Import history • Critical object monitoring • Remote system monitoring • Dashboard – System Indicators • Custom development inventory • Transport sequencing • Locked user analysis • System health check • BDC/IDoc Aging • Auto queue build & Import • Transport Simulation / Proactive error check before migration • Handhelp device enabling • Stabilization • Obsolete Object – Clearing analysis • Dashboard upgrade • Object inventory – Duplicate objects • Check object dependencies • Open source – Incident Management tool • Auto open/close remote system. • Weekly Dump analyzer • Stabilization • BW transport maintenance • Database growth projection • Transport verification/ release auto sequencing / import functionality • Web enabling • Integration with other reporting tool
CTS Manager – Value Proposition • Business Value • Quck analysis utilities reduce manual search/ analysis time by 60-70 % • Transport sequence activity time will be reduced by 40-50% during copy back/ support pack / upgrade. • Dashboard will help in monitoring system resources at one place will reduce activities monitoring time by 20 %. • Process improvement by giving insight on dumps, BDC, IDOC and other ignored areas • By provide auto monitoring email notification on critical system activities, response time will be reduced. • Aging data details eliminate chances of accidently processing business critical data which eliminates hours/weeks of analysis/clearing work. • Cost Reduction • Auto monitoring will improve response time • Clearing analysis will help identifying obsolete objects. Less objects means less time to manage. • Auto queue build and import functionality will reduce migration time by 70% and will improve import accuracy by 95% • Preventive process will ensure no issues after transport import due to object dependency . • Design & Usability • SAP look and feel requires no major learning curve. • Easy to install / implement / customize. • SAP Standard authorization concept used . • No modification to any SAP standard object hence no effect during upgrade.
CTS Manager – Q&A / Next Steps • SUMMARY • Utilities that can be used for WHAT IF analysis • Can be used during support pack implementations, Copy backs, upgrade. Gives transport sequencing details by objects. • Eliminates manual effort to build transport queue and import. • Highlights areas of concerns and provide details to enforce/ implement business processes. • Helps in reducing TCO and increase ROI
