SAP Transport Management

Soft configuration in SAP refers to configuration settings that can be transported between systems using transports, without the need to install additional software. There are two types of transports used for soft configuration changes - customizing requests and workbench requests. Customizing requests are used for client-specific changes like master data, plant codes, and customizing tables. Workbench requests are used for cross-client changes like programs, tables, and ABAP code. Transports allow these soft configuration changes to be promoted sequentially from development to production systems.

SAP screens
• Easy access screens – post transactional data or master data – TR can
not be generated
• SPRO Screens – SAP Project Reference Object - used configure the
SAP System as per clients requiremen – TR can generate
What is a transport
• To move configurations and/or code changes to Production
• Transport track is like a train. The train follows the route provided above
where SAP environments are the train stations
• Dev > QA > Prod
• When you release a transport, it is available in all the train
stations(environments)
• Consider a situation where there is a bug fix to the change above, then
there will be revisions to the transport and it has to be done all over again.
• Transport request(TR) is a group of tasks, task is a place reserved for a
single user – only he can load the data into TR.
Customizing request
• Client - specific
• Handled by functional consultant
• All configurations
• SPRO settings
• Changes to Client-dependent tables (only for a particular client)
• Table type = C = Customizing table only ( not application tables data)
• Configuration of for example – plant code, material type g/l etc.,
• No ABAP Code or Object involved.
Workbench request
• Cross-client data
• Handled through Technical consultant
• Programs
• TCodes
• Tables ( Client – independent tables )
• Table entries
• Screens
• Functional modules
• Function groups
• User-exits
• BADI

Independent means – all clients it is updated.


Transport of Copies
• Combination of Customizing + Workbench request
• Only one target system ( station )
• You can move TOC to a certain system for example – Testing(QA)
• This will not be automatically transported to the system landscape
• The idea is to perform your code changes and configurations and save it in a transport – “Main
Transport”
• Once you are done all the changes – you will create a “Transport of copy”(TOC) and then you
release only the TOC to the target system , say Production. The “Main transport” is not released.
• You can move TOC to multiple clients by creating multiple child transports.
• you cannot create a ToC in ECC system for an unreleased transport. Only after the transport is
released, you can create ToC
• Using ToC , can reduce the number of transport requests eventually deployed to production.
