Remote execution

Former Member — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 17:31:42 GMT

Hi All,

I have a requirement. I created an ABAP Program in Development System. I want to execute this program in Production without transporting it to Production. I heard that it is possible by writing another ABAP program which will dynamically pass the program (that needs to be executed in production) to Production Memory through FTP which execute there and retrieve the results. If anybody has written any ABAP Program like this pl share it with me.

Thanks & Regards ::

Not possible. You can cause a program that exists in production to run, by using an RFC from development. But you cannot run a program in development and have it act on productive data.

What's the business scenario?

Thank you Matt. Business scenario is we don't have good data for testing the program. only production has got data to test the scenario. So I want to test it directly on production data. Report only reads data. It won't write anything in production.

Your auditors would have a field day with you if you could do this.

What I meant was - if you said you wouldn't write anything.

Transport required data from Production to development and test with that data

Thank you all. I think there is no other alternate than getting data from production or creating some data in development or QA itself.

just curious, if the DEV does not hv good data, then How Unit test, UAT will be conducted, so, instead of all these, its better to ask ur functinal folk to create good data.
