A request is one which contains many tasks under it. The tasks are each one type of object and are released to the request.Once the tasks are relased to the request then the request can be transported.

Many tasks will be under one request.

suppose say in a project different users have to change one program

for every user one task will be created under only one request

Hey Kalyan,

Request is the highest level in the hierarchy. The tasks will be stored under the request.

It has 1 to many relation ship. i.e, a request may contain 1 or more task. But task cannot contain any request under it.

Hello Kalyan

A task is nothing else but a "container" for your transport objects. You cannot have a task without a request (like you cannot have fields without a table or structure).

Eventually, the request is the "vehicle" used to transport your object to the next SAP system.

Hi Kalyan,

see you trying to create a progam where for a particular Report needs a Ztable , zdataelement, zfunction module.

ok , while saving this first Request will create and in that for program you will have one task, and for table while creating it will generate a task at that time you have to see in which request you want to save, like dataelement , function Group .

once complete this you can check in SE10 where you can see one request , in that you can find all tasks which you created for z objects and these tasks also

you can see in the utilities-> version.

Try this if it is helpful. Reward Points.

Regards,
