Error in table when we generate table maintenance

[Former Member]

Dear Sirs,

We add a field in table ZVDD and tried to generate table maintenance.
We get a message that we have the package ZOUT and we can not transport it to our quality system SNC. We need to change the package to ZJPP in order to transport to our Quality system. Can you help us in that issue?

Thank you and best regards

Hi,

This is more related to the Transport Layer and Transport Package. It seems your package ZOUT is not configured correctly to the Transport layer

Below can help you in understanding the basic difference.

A transport package (formerly called a "development class", a term you may still encounter) groups related development objects. Whenever you create a new development object (table, program, ...) you have to assign it to a package; the object is then placed into a transport request. Alternatively you can indicate it is a local object (its package is then "$TMP") but such an object is non-transportable.

A transport layer identifies the route that transportable devmt objects must follow. Typically in your system you will have two layers: a layer usually called Zxxx (with xxx = SID of your development system) is used for your own developments. Another layer called "SAP" is used for transporting SAP objects, for example changes to standard SAP code implemented via transaction SNOTE and recorded in repairs. Without the "SAP" layer in place, repairs would be non-transportable.

Each transport package belongs to a layer. You assign the layer when you create a new package in transaction SE80. You can change the layer later on, but this is rarely needed and can cause quite a few side-effects. SAP objects always have layer "SAP". The layers themselves are managed in STMS, under "Transport Routes".

Hi Joao,

Make sure that you do not have Transport Layer for Package ZOUT as blank. If it is so, the your package is not transportable. You can find the same in 'Package-->Properties-->transport attributes'.
