Introduction
As we step into the second half of 2023, we are thrilled to introduce a range of enhanced features and capabilities in our Configuration Transport Center product. These enhancements are designed to empower administrators, streamline configuration change management, and enhance audit compliance across various modules. Let's dive into the key features that will transform your configuration change management experience.
Improved Coverage
One of the primary enhancements in H2 2023 is the increased support for various configurations. Now, administrators can transport MDF Data, including both Standard and Customer Objects(Object category must of Configuration or non-Person Transactional Data allowed for transport), Corporate/Country Specific Data Models, Business Configuration UI (BCUI), Legacy Foundation Objects (FOs), Business Rules, Permission Groups (RBP Groups), and more with ease. Our product now covers majority of the configurations in Employee Central, Talent, Performance Management, Goals, Succession, 360, Development, and People Profile, providing a comprehensive solution for your configuration transport needs.
Key New Features:
- Avoid Conflicting Changes
To enhance configuration management, we've introduced a feature that allows administrators to restrict adding the same configuration to multiple transport bundles. This ensures that changes are tracked and implemented seamlessly without any conflicts, saving time and effort.

- Enhanced Audit Compliance
To ensure that your systems are audit-compliant, we've added a significant capability. Administrators now need not have edit permissions on productive tenants at each configuration level. This feature is vital for maintaining tenant data integrity and compliance.
- Improved Import History Reporting
We understand the importance of traceability in configuration change management. That's why we've enhanced the Import history report. The new report includes two key details: "Modified By User" and "Modified By Date" from the source tenant. This feature provides end-to-end traceability of changes, allowing you to track who made a change, when it occurred, In which development tenant the change was introduced, and by whom.Easily track changes from Change Request to import.
