| # Convert Used Applications (tgbrg5251m000) Use this session to convert the applications that are used within the business processes and support applications from one component release to another. Note To convert applications from one component release (source) to another (destination) it is important that you maintain the application changes between the different component releases in the Conversion of Applications (tgbrg5150m000) session. When neglecting the changes it might happen that certain business processes and support applications can no longer be used as no destination application is specified. Related topics Components Version Select the version of the business processes and support applications of which you can specify the ranges. Business Process If this check box is selected, you can select a range of business processes. The activities of application type within the business processes will be checked whether a source application is linked. If this is true the source application will be converted to the destination application. Note Of course all conditions set in this session must be met before the actual conversion takes place. Support Application If this check box is selected, you can select a range of support applications. The support applications will be checked whether a source application is linked. If this is true the source application will be converted to the destination application. Note Of course all conditions set in this session must be met before the actual conversion takes place. Execute test run If this check box is selected, a test run for the conversion is carried out. ERP prints a report that contains the relevant data. The print report shows per business process and support application which source applications are converted and by means of which replacement option this took place. Component A set of applications and their related data. Component Release The identification of the issue of a component. Component A set of applications and their related data.

Keep original BP Activity Descriptions If this check box is selected, the description of the activity will not be changed when the linked application (source application) is replaced by the destination application. In other words the description of the activity will not be replaced by the description of the destination activity. Link Component Activity Descriptions from Destination to BP Activities If this check box is selected, the description of the activity is replaced by the description of the destination application. If the application that is linked to an activity exists in the source component, the system conducts a search for the corresponding application in the destination component. If the corresponding application exists, the description of the activity is changed to the description of the destination application. Note This option only applies to activities of type application.
