Transferring objects between different SAP installation

Former Member — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 20:55:53 GMT

I need to transfer some reports from an environment that is hosted in SAP in another branch office (other country) to our SAP. In our company, each country has a different instalation of SAP.

I did a search in the internet and I discovered SAPLink that can be used to do that kind of job. Actually I did it and it seems that is working. The problem is:

I need to attach all the objects (Domains, Data Elements, Structures, Programs, etc..) to an request in order to transport from Development environment to Quality environment. I did it with the programs assigning in a new package, but there are to many objects.

Is there a simple way to do it recursively? Is there another solution to solve this problem without SAPLink?

I do this all the time, here is how you do it.

When you import the objects using SAPLINK they all arrive in the target system as LOCAL objects i.e. with package $TMP.

Via SE03 you assign the new package and then you are prompted for the transport request. Once the object is in the request you can move it to QA.

What you are asking for is a way to assign about 100 local objects at once to a package, and no, it can't be done.

The fastest way is to use SE03 and just work your way through the $TMP objects you just transported in. Tedious and boring, but there is no silver bullet here.
