how to transport variant from one client to another client?

[Former Member]

Hi Abhi,

In version 46C (I'm not sure about earlier versions), you can create a transport request in SE38 for the variants of a program. You could then use transaction SCC1 to copy those changes from one client to another.

To create transport:

1) Go to transaction SE38 and enter the program name.

2) Click the radio button next to the "Variants" subobject and click the "Change" button

3) On "ABAP: Variants" screen, select menu path "Utilities -> Transport request"

4) Enter the variant(s) you want to copy into the "Variant name" box.

5) Click the execute button and save the data to a new change request.

To copy to new client:

1) Log on to target client and goto transaction SCC1.

2) Enter the source client and change request number from above.

3) Click the execute button.

Please note that if you're doing this in a downstream system (i.e. not a development box) you may need to change the client settings temporarily to carry out the client to client copy in SCC1.

Hope it is helpful.

Thankyou,

Regards.

Hi Abhi

Please create a varaint with the following name, "CUS&<Text>". This will ask for a transport request while saving. This will create a system variant which will ask for transport request while saving.

Hope this helps !

Hi Abhi ,

Onw way of doing it is to create a transport request and attach the variant to the TR and using SCC1 transaction copy the contenets of the TR to the other client.
