XPRA Program after Transport

helmut_sieberer — Tue, 26 May 2015 08:10:23 GMT

Hello,

I have one question and i hope i can get some help here.

Can anyone tell me if and how it is possible to call a xpra program in a customizing Transport ?

In my case, if a user makes some customizing settings it is necessary to generate a subroutine pool.

So far no problem in the develop-system.

But now i need to transport it.

I can't transport the subroutine-pool because the user is no developer.

So i thought i transport the settings and put an xpra-programm in the transport that generates the code.

But transport-system says: xpra not allowed in customizing transport.

So how can i do it, that after the transport of the customizing-settings the subroutine-pool is generated in the destination-system ?

Thank's in advance...

Helmut

Helmut,

XPRA is to tell the transport system to execute a report at the end of the import phase that will generate specific objects.

For example run pgm RV80HGEN in sales.

Can't you run manually (or ask to run) whatever report you need in the destination system?

You can create an workbench request and add the XPRA with the required routine name to run. Transport the customizing TR first and than the Workbench TR.

Thanks very much.

I tried to link the 2 steps together - customizing settings and code generation.

But maybe there is no way. Everything that can happen happens. And if they transport it in the wrong order then...

other idea: Is there any chance to find out in the destination system when the last import of a R3TR/TABU/Tablename was done ?

Then i could write a Job which checks if generation is necessary.
