 Quality

 Production

3
Development System

▪ The abbreviation DEV/CUST is used for the development system.

▪ It is used for all developments and configurations.

▪ The developments and configurations move from development system to quality system

through a mechanism called as transport request.

4
Quality System

▪ The abbreviation QAS/QTST is used for quality system.

▪ The testing of all the developments and customizations needs be done in the quality

system.

▪ The developments and configurations move from quality system to production system

through transport request.

1. Workbench request

2. Customizing request

3. Transport of copies

4. Relocation

Types of Transport Request

1. Workbench Request : A workbench request is for carrying out development work in the

ABAP workbench. This is primarily code or custom objects.

2. Customizing Request: The customizing request is for configuration changes in SPRO and

customizing table contents.

Types of Transport Request(Contd.)

3. Transport of Copies(TOC) : It is used to transfer the changes to the other system without

releasing the main transport request. After successful testing, we can release our main

transport request. So, at the end we will have a single transport request for all our

changes.

4. Relocation: We can use this request type when we want to change the development

system of individual objects on a permanent basis.

Status of Transport Request

▪ There are 2 status of transport request.

1. Modifiable

2. Released

to move SAP standard objects.

▪ Z<SID> is custom transport layer to move

the customized objects, where SID = system id.

Transport Layer(Contd.)

▪ A transport layer is assigned to each development class/package and thus to all the

objects in that class.

▪ The transaction code to define the transport layer and transport route is STMS(SAP

Transport Management System).

Transport Strategies(Procedures)

▪ The transaction code STMS_IMPORT is used to import the transport requests.

▪ There are 2 procedures/strategies to use import queue to import the transports.

1. Mass Transport - To import all the requests.

2. Single Transport - To import a single request.
