Solutions (ttpmc1100m000)

Use this session to maintain solutions.

For a single solution, see .

The scope of this session covers the life cycle of a solution from the solution's creation to the solution's release. In this session, you can maintain the basic data of a solution.

You can use this session to change the status of a solution manually under certain conditions.

Note: 

Check out and check in is not restricted to the Current Package VRC. You can check out or check in all components for which you are authorized.

For check out you need the following authorizations:

  • VRC authorization
  • Module authorization
  • Language authorization
  • Authorization for components of which you are not the developer. These authorizations are specified in the Developer Authorizations Template.

For check in the same authorizations are required. You can only check in components that were checked out by yourself.

The check out and check in functionality displays a message with the number of components for which you are not authorized.

For solutions that are linked to a translation run (ttpmc4510m000), which is part of the composite session, these restrictions apply:

  • These solutions cannot be deleted.
  • These solutions cannot be set to “released”.

These solutions are displayed in the session. To start this session, click the default button on a record in the session.

Note: Translation-related sessions, fields, statuses, and commands are only available on our internal translation server.

To log on to a translation server, specify this command in the LN environment connection settings:

-set TRANSLATION_SERVER=1

Alternatively, add this line in $BSE\lib\bse_vars:

TRANSLATION_SERVER=1
