Necessary migrations

When updating to BPF V4.0 or higher, the following migrations must be carried out.

A workbench and customising transport is required for the migration.

Updating the standard tasks

Existing standard tasks must be updated using the report /PCH/BPF_SETUP_STANDARD_TASKS (Generate/update tasks option) and transported to the corresponding downstream systems.

The update must take place on a client in which repository objects can be changed.

Typically, this is the development client on which the ProProcess workflows are generated.

Non-updated standard tasks can lead to errors when activating or executing workflows.

Initial definition of the modelling client

The modelling client must be initially defined for existing processes using the ProProcess tools or transaction /PCH/BPF_UPD_CPRC_LS.

Updating the process workflows

Migration of processes to the new workflow generation using the programm /PCH/BPF_MIGRATION_WF_GEN_VS. The same authorisations are required as for the activation of ProProcess processes.

Further notes

Breaking Changes

Synchronous sub-processes are started differently from BPF V4.0. Customer-specific implementations may need to be adapted. Existing or non-migrated processes are not affected.
Adjustments have been made to the internal structure of BPF. Customer-specific implementations that use internal BPF functionalities may need to be adapted.
The semantic objects and actions change in the delivery. Customer-specific catalogues and groups must be checked.
