Workbench Requests

When you change a Repository object of the ABAP Workbench,

a query window appears in which you need to specify a

Workbench request. You can only save the changes if you

have assigned the object to a change request.

Workbench requests and the tasks assigned to them are

normally used to record changes to Repository objects and

Customizing for all clients. However, you can also include

client-specific Customizing.

Whether the changes to Repository objects are transported

depends on whether a transport route is defined from the

current SAP System for the package of these objects. From

the system settings, the system automatically determines

whether the change requests are transportable and to which

target system they should be transported.

Customizing requests

Customizing requests record client-specific Customizing

settings made in a single client (the source client of the

request).

Automatic recording of configuration activities in the

Customizing work for a client can be activated or

deactivated for each client with Client Control. If

automatic recording is active, a query window appears when

you change Customizing settings, asking you to specify a

Customizing request.

Whether Customizing requests are transported or not, does

not depend on the objects entered, as is the case with

Workbench change requests. The Customizing requests in an

SAP System (or in a client if you use Extended Transport

Control) are either all transportable or all local,

depending on the system setting. The system uses the

standard transport layer to determine automatically whether

the change requests are transportable and to which target

system they should be transported. However, you can change

this manually.

1) Customizing requests :

Changes to Customizing settings are recorded in

Customizing requests.

2) Workbench requests :

Workbench requests record changes made to ABAP Workbench

objects.

3) Transport of Copies :

Transports of copies allow you to transport (sub-)objects

in an object list into any other SAP System you want.

In simple words

There are two types of Customizing change requests:

Customizing request

Customizing requests contain changes to client-dependent data.

Workbench request

Workbench requests contain changes to client-independent data.

Hi Anversha,

You said that client dependent objects would be under customizing request but SAPSCRIPTS are client dependent but still they are created under work bench request.
