We can divided clients in to mainly three category Of changes by the CTS allow you to develop in one environment, test your development work inĪ test environment, and then, if the tests are successful, use it productively. This automatic procedure is known as a transport. To copy the changes from this client to other clients or systems. CTS records all changes inĬan be linked together logically, or can be completely independent of As per client settings, these requests are automatically recorded when users perform customizing settings and a target system is automatically assigned as per the transport layer (if defined).Central tool for managing changes to Customizing and Repository data. These requests are responsible for making changes in the ABAP workbench objects.Ĭustomizing Request – contains objects that belong to ‘client-specific’ customizing. Workbench Request – contains repository objects and also ‘cross-client’ customizing objects. However, assigned project members can release their respective change tasks, once completed.Hence, she/he is the owner with control of all the changes that are recorded in that TR, and therefore, she/he can only release that TR.The project manager or designated lead is responsible to create a TR and assign the project members to the TR by creating task/s for each project member.Tasks also use the same naming convention, with ‘numbers’ consecutive to the number used in TR containing them.įor Example, Tasks in the above-mentioned TR Example can be named as DEVK900031, DEVK900032 …

Number – can be anything from a range starting with 900001.Tasks are not transportable by themselves, but only as a part of TR.Ĭhange requests are named in a standard format as K However multiple users can be assigned to each Transport Request (as it can contain multiple tasks). Each task can be assigned to (and released by) only one user. Change Task is actually a list of objects that are modified by a particular user.TR can be released only once all the tasks inside a TR are completed, released, or deleted. Tasks are stored inside a TR, just like multiple files are stored in some folders. Each TR contains one or more change jobs, also known as change Tasks (minimum unit of transportable change).It also records the information regarding the type of change, the purpose of transport, request category, and the target system. Transport Requests (TRs) – is a kind of ‘Container / Collection’ of changes that are made in the development system.
