Hi
We are using Retrofit functionality which is as follows:
PROD is only single production server using dual maintenance.
So basically urgent changes are retrofitted in release cycle which is mostly quarterly release.
We are again putting the retrofitted changes back to PROD server from where they have originated.
This creates a risk of putting old changes back to production after new ones if CHARM/Transport sequence is not followed correctly.
Then I read this old blog:
http://scn.sap.com/people/hannes.kerber/blog/2013/06/13/do-i-need-charm-to-use-retrofit
This blog says that retrofit functionality can be used without CHARM but with only task list.
Could you please throw some light on this.
We don’t want to include retrofit in release cycle but keep it away so as to minimize the risk for taking back the retrofits again to PROD.
Any documentation on this would be of help.
Hi Siddharth
I believe "enhanced retrofit" cannot be used without CHARM (at least non in standard) so that's probably an old blog post.
You can use CHARM on the maintenance landscape, create retrofit transports in implementation landscape, retrofit changes and then manage transports in the implementation landscape without CHARM if you want. It's not obligated to manage those retrofit transports in CHARM.
Best regards

Hi Siddharth,
As you know, during the retrofit we have three options - Auto Import, Semi automatic and Manual changes.
From my perspective, only the Auto- import requests go to Production again, but there is a possibility that these objects may also get changed in the Impl dev after retrofitted as part of project.
For Semi automatic and Manual changes - the object has already modified in Implementation dev system and these modified objects go to Production.
Regards,
Vijay
