How to Move programs from QAS to DEV

Former Member — Thu, 07 Feb 2008 13:04:18 GMT

Hi,

I have a list of 50 program, which they deleted from FROM DEV and are available in QAS. Now they ask me to move back the programs from QAS to DEV.

How to do this. Please let me know. I will surely reward the points.

Priya.

good

generally you can create the transport request to move the report from QAS to DEV but neither it is advisable or anybody would suggest you to do this.

So copy the programs to the .txt file and create the new programs again in DEV.

thanks

You may be able to retrieve them from version management. If one of your programs was called Z_MYREPORT, for example, go to SE38 on DEV, enter Z_MYREPORT then menu Utilities->Versions->Version Management. Even though the report was deleted, you'll be able to select the last version and retrieve it.

Note, however, this only works where the object was transported from DEV to QAS in the past. It works only with objects that support version management - so not sapscript layouts, for example.

And as others have noted, you basis team can construct a transport in QAS and transport it to DEV - but this should be last resort.

And you can always cut and paste. 😄

hi Pritya,

you can transport the programs back from Q to DEV. you have to create a transport request in the Q system and add the programs manually. That means adding lines like:

R3TR PROG name_of_program

this will take screens, text elements, source codes, however NOT the includes (you have to check these manually) and DDIC objects.

You have to be very careful, not to transport back something which exist in DEV, because you might destroy current development.

hope this helps
