Quality Approval for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Public Edition
Activating the communication
arrangement SAP_COM_0690 is
switching on Quality Approval in SAP
S/4HANA Cloud, Public Edition
Only transports with Quality Status
“Approved” can be forwarded and
imported to the Production Tenant
Public 13
Quality Approval for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Public Edition
Approving a feature for Production
indicates that all transports assigned are
designated for Quality Status Approved
A job in the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Test Tenant
picks up the transports and sets the Quality
Status accordingly
In combination with Forward Automation
and Import Automation this is very
powerful to reach the objective of
continuously delivering features to
Production
