Download ABAP Objects

Former Member — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 14:16:54 GMT

Hi,

Is there a way to download dialog programs together with screen definitions same way one would do for a normal report program.

I also would like to download table definitions.

Scenario

We have written some custom applications that we use for demonstration for our potential clients, all this are loaded on laptop. We need to copy on of our internal clients to the laptop and also re-upload the custom applications on the laptop. For this we need to download all the custom development/ applications to a secondary storage, do client copy then upload the custom development.

Thank you for all your help.

Regards,

Kennedy.

Don't know if you heard of [SAPLink|http://code.google.com/p/saplink/]. This application gives the possiblity to copy different kinds of objects - a full list of supported objects [here|http://code.google.com/p/saplink/wiki/pluginList].

As for the screens you can copy them like described [here|http://erpgenie.com/abaptips/content/view/109/35/]. This however is more suitbale for copying singular programs not all custom development as you need to copy screens one by one.

Another way of moving entire custom objects is like I described [here|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/HowtocopyRepositoryObjectsbetweennon-connectedSAPsystems]

Marcin

Hey Marcin,

A few months back we used the technique to import some objects but we had to ask the basis team to extract the filess

Hi Suhas,

Thanks for pointing this out. I will surely update the wiki to make people aware of this prerequisite.

Cheers
