Call Development Sever Report Program From Production Server And Execute

[jayakummar]

Dear Experts,

I Need To Execute Report Program From Development Server To Production Server With out Transport The Object Using RFC.

Through One Remote Function Module We Can Able To Execute Development Server object In Production Server With out transport That Object. The Purpose is In My Dev Server No Test Data . So For Testing Purpose i Can Use This RFC in prd server And Execute The dev server Program .

I Need To Know The Name of The Remote Function Module.

Reward is Avail For Useful Answer.

Thanks In Advance,

Hi Jaykumar,

First of all this is not the recommended solution. If u have access to the production server, y dont u copy paste the same program in the production server rather than calling a RFC.

Thank you.

Hi Jayakumar,

Think twice before touching production server. It may cause serious problems even if u do a silly mistake. Important points to be noted

1. Is ur object updating any tables?

2. Any BDCs?

3. Is it creating any files in application server?

U have to think in all these aspects before doing some thing in production server.

If it is simply displaying data then why can't u copy the data from production system to development system. Or else ask ur functional to create test data for u if it is difficultto create. I don't think creating test data in development is that much difficult for functional. We will go to this approach only in exceptional cases.

eg: Form printing on special printers available with client like BARCODES etc. We had same problem. Even in this case also we created somany TRs for testing the above scenario but not by linking dev and production. Also u need Business approval to run something in production system. Because every one will not be given access to do every thing.

Hope this will be clear now.

Thanks,

Vinod.

Hi,

Check this thread from earlier today;

I guess this is only risky if you don't know what the report is doing. If it just a report (reads data then formats it in ALV or similar) I don't see how the risk is that great, but that said I would never encourage anyone to go against the procedures defined for a particular system landscape.

Hi Jayakumar ,

Without touching PRD you can create some entries in DEV

in dubugging mode.i mean to say is ,debug the report and in that create some dummy data and test it there itself.

Hope this will solve your problem.

Please reward points if found helpful.

Thanks and regards.
