TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT in SAP ABAP
Transport Management
- Transport Management in SAP ABAP systems is the data movement strategy between the three standard SAP System Landscapes (development, quality assurance, and production)
- Transport requests which are data packaging of ABAP source code changes and configuration changes are moved from one landscape to another.
Packages
Packages contain a group of development objects that must be developed, maintained, and transported together.
Example
- $TMP is used for local objects, and is non transportable.
- Custom packages are used to capture all development objects and enable transport to the next system environment
- For some projects, change requests are created in the Solution Manager (SolMan) system and will be handled by ChaRM.
When a transport request is created, it can be either a:
Workbench Request
Transporting objects like Programs, Classes, etc. basically Repository objects.
Customization Request
Transporting customization data to move it from one system to another.
Version Management
- All the developments will be done in a development system within the SAP system landscape.
- Developments from DEV system will be moved to QAS, once moved to QAS a version will be generated in version management database.
- Version management will mainly be helpful for an ABAPper to:
- Recover/Review a version
- Verify/validate versions with remote systems
