Otherwise if for program in version management there will be some old list of request also like this image.

AL LAST PLEASE CLOSE THIS THREAD,MARK IT AS ANSWERED... if u got answer .

Linganathan,

First u need to activate required version in development server.

If u save this it will ask for new request and create request and release the same to production as usual.

after testing again u can follow the same procedure for activating initial version.

Hope this will helpful to you.

Thank you.

Balaji.

Hi,

You canot check this with version management why because you will get only current version in the Production .if you want to see take the request from development server and check in the tcode STMS_IMPORT in production serevr whther your request gone to production are not.

Any way you will get all the older requests in your development server you have to cross check all the requests like this.i think there is no other way.

Thanks

By default only latest version will be present in a transport target system, in fact they are not very useful for end-users, no ?

Nevertheless, read Note 130906 - How can versions be transported?, but only when creating the target system, as all it current versions will be delete, e.g. creating a new development for an upgrade, or a sandbox system.

You can activate import of versions, go to the Transport Management System and set the profile parameter VERS_AT_IMP to ALWAYS (the default is NEVER ). But imports will take more time to exeute.

Hi Linganathan ,

Adding with the above solutions ,

You can also check with table E071 ,

In selection give OBJ_NAME = zprogram

This will give you the entire list , this is very useful for finding the request number of a smartform , can be used for any objects though.

Beware, this can be false for sub-objects. A transport request can contain a part of the object, e.g. a FM source LIMU FUNC or the whole function group R3TR FUGR, many cases such a text, dynpro, etc.
