There can be many tasks for differenet user ids under one transport request. Say you have a team of developers working on the same project, all of them will have separate tasks under the one transport request.

Hi,

In SAP all the developments will carry out in the Development system then tested and Tranported the changes to the Production system through Transport System.

In the Transport system Request numbers are generated for saving the group of tasks to be carried out into one unit.

Under the Request we can have as many Task numbers as you can, each for one user, which allows the differant user can work with separete tasks and together can store under the same Request and can transport at a time to the another system( say production system).

To release a Request we must release all the Task under that request.

Thanks

Srini

At a lower level, a transport request corresponds to a set of contents which can be moved as a unit from one system in the landscape to another. It holds the current state of all the objects it is associated with.

A task is a sub-unit of a TR, used by multiple users to lock a single object. So, if i have a lock on an object, and you too want to modify the same object, you would also create a task, and make your modifications. Effectively, to then move the TR across landscapes would need permissions from both of us, in the form of task-releasing.
