Importing Objects from Different Server

VijayasekarK — Thu, 23 Dec 2004 07:52:30 GMT

Hi,

I would like to know is there is any way to import

the objects (like tables , progams) from a different sap server to my sap system without establishing STMS(Transport Management System).

Looking for your views..............

Regards,

K Vijayasekar.

Hi Vijayasekar,

I'm not an authority on this, but I can think of one good reason why it cannot be done.

If you do not have the TMS between the two SAP systems, then how can the system resolve the possible naming conflicts and perform the consistency shecks?

For example, let us say you want to import a database table (some 'Z' table) into your target system. Now there are quite a few things that have to be ascertained before the import can be done - does a table with the same name already exist in the target system? are all the data-elements and domains used by this table available in the target system? etc.,

There might be some other checks required, but I'm not certain of the specifics.

In summary, I don't think it is possible to import without passing through the TMS. May be it should not be possible to do so unless there is a very strong alternative.

Hi,

the only thing I can imagine is:

- for tables, do a cut and paste (it's not very comfortable, but works) and

- for programs, do a download of each single include to a file and upload it into your new system
