Symptom
No transports are allowed from Q system to P system in the two weeks where the P system is not at the same release as the Q system.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition (2-System Landscape only)
SAP Central Business Configuration (2-System Landscape only)
SAP Marketing Cloud
Resolution
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition systems have half year software upgrade. New functionality is delivered each quarter and requires action to keep the process flowing smoothly. The upgrade dates are not flexible, and all customers are upgraded during the same weekends.
The Q-System will be upgraded first. Then, two weeks later, the P-System will be upgraded. During the time between the Q and P upgrades, regression testing occurs.
If the P-system has not been provisioned, it must be requested at least 15 days prior to the Q-system upgrade so that both the P and Q-systems are on the same base release.
Beginning with the upgrade preparation, no extensibility development can be carried out. In the two weeks where the P system is not at the same release as the Q system, no transports are allowed.
