2 TRANSPORT REQUESTS

The following transport requests need to be imported:

TR Description Comment
FQAK904169 01-KofaxProcessDirector_AP_7_10_ERP_6_0_EhP
FQAK902104 02 - Kofax_Namespaces
FQAK904172 03-KofaxProcessDirector_7_10_ERP_6_0_EhP

Important: It is recommended that you import the transports separately, one at a time, unless an error
caused by interdependencies occurs. If a return code greater than 4 is returned after importing a transport,
do not import any further transport requests! Contact VISEO for assistance and provide details about the
return code.

The import can be done into any SAP client.

Note: In systems with Enhancement Pack 5 or later, when trying to import the ReadSoft PROCESS
DIRECTOR transports, you may get the “n of n requests do not match the component version of the target
system” error message, which results in the import not being carried out. If this happens, activate the
Ignore Invalid Component Version option in the Import Transport Request dialog box. See SAP Note
1742547 for more information.

To import the transports, complete the following steps:

1. Extract the ZIP file in the SAP transport folder (...\TRANS\)
2. The transport files are already in the correct COFILES and DATA subfolders
If it is not possible to extract the transport files directly into the SAP transport folders (for
example, if there is no direct access to the file system in the SAP application server), you have to
use a binary method to transfer the files (for example, FTP). See OSS note 2050.

4. Open the import queue of the SAP system
5. Go to Extras > Other requests > Add
