Transform template project

Create an implementation project based on an existing template project.

Prerequisite

You have modeled your template project in ARIS and synchronized the data with SAP® Solution Manager.

Procedure

  1. Derive an implementation project from this template project in SAP® Solution Manager.

  2. Log in to the database in which you manage the template project, and create a copy/copy variant of the entire template project.

  3. Create a new database and download the relevant implementation project from SAP® Solution Manager. The database should contain this project and nothing else.

  4. Open the database structure of the database that contains the copy of your template project (see 2).

  5. Select the group that contains all copied items of the template project and start the transformation.

    Warning

    The project type is changed. Ensure you have started this functionality for the group that contains the copied project. The attributes of all items in the selected group are changed. If you selected a different group, it may no longer be possible to synchronize data from this group.

  6. Click Transform Transform > Transform template project in the SAP® Solutions tab bar. The Transform template project dialog opens.

  7. Select the new database, which contains only the implementation project (see 3), and click OK.

The template project is transformed into an implementation project. The necessary attribute changes are applied.

Now you can manage the data for both projects in one database and synchronize it with SAP® Solution Manager. If you change the template project at a later time, the changes must be re-synchronized. To transfer the changes to your implementation project, repeat steps 2 - 6.
