Quick Question

Former Member — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 22:27:37 GMT

I have a quick question..

If there are 2 SAP systems(viz. b1, b2) and the transport path is defined as b1 to b2. Now I change an object directly in b2 using modification assistant.

Now if I move this object changes from b1 to b2 by transporting transport request, will it just over-write the changes in b2 or will it issue a warning message in the log saying that the object has been modified?

I know this is not a usual phenomemon but just wanted to know.

Thanks

Vamshi,

My common sense says it will overwrite.

If I recall correctly, the transport should give an error. If you release the request in b2, it should overwrite. There is probably a repair flag that has to be set as well.

you make changes in b2 and release it.

Now if you move the object from b1 to b2, all the changes you did in b2 will be overwritten by the object thats present in b1.

One more quick question..

In the above scenario there is a transport request created in b2 for the changes I did and I dont release it further. Now, if I release my transport from b1 to b2 for my changes to the same object, will there be any issue because I havent relesed the transport from b2?

Thanks

HI,

Chnages done in b1 will overwrite in b2.

Thanks,

I think the transport will give an error and not overwrite the object.

It should be pretty easy to test. Make a change to the description of a program in b2. It will raise a repair and don't release it..

Then make a different change to the text in b1, release the request and transport it to b2.

See what happens.
