Use transaction STMS

Look at Transport Management System (BC-CTS-TMS) and System Administration Assistant

Importing Requests

Use

You can use three different methods in the TMS import queue to import requests into the target system. You can choose between performing any of the three methods in dialog, or in the background. The best method for you depends on your system landscape and your transport

strategy [Ext.]. In practice, you will find that a combination of these methods is the most effectiveway of working with the TMS. If you only want to import individual requests or projects into a system, you can change the transport strategy

Prerequisites

Before you import the requests from an import queue into an SAP System, ensure that no users are working in this SAP System. Therefore, inform your users about the import times early on, for example by creating a system message.To prevent change requests from still being placed in the import queue shortly before the mass import, and perhaps being imported unintentionally, we recommend closing the import queue before the import. Also read the notes on Precautionary Measures in the Target System

Functions

Starting the Import of All Requests in an Import Queue (Mass Transport

Strategy)

When you import all the requests from an import queue, they are imported in the order in which they are placed in the queue. Each import step is performed for all requests. First, all the Dictionary objects in the requests are imported, then all the Dictionary objects are activated, and then the main import is performed for all requests. If you use this method to export all your requests from your development system into your quality assurance and production systems, then you are assured of keeping the Customizing and Workbench objects in your systems synchronized. However, this method is less suitable if you develop in different projects at the same time, test them in the QA system, and then import the projects into your production system at different times. This applies especially to the production system.

Starting the Import of All Requests in One or More Projects

If you have assigned your transport requests to projects (see Using Projects to Control Transports [Ext.]), you can import all requests that belong to a single project together. The requests are imported in the order in which they are placed in the import queue. This also applies if you want to import all the requests from multiple projects together. All the requests in one project are not imported first, followed by all the requests in the next project. Instead they are imported in the order in which they are placed in the import queue. Each import step is performedfor all requests, just like when you import all requests from a queue. First, all the Dictionary objects in the requests are imported, then all the Dictionary objects are activated, and then the main import is performed for all requests.

Starting the Import for Individual Requests (Single Transport Strategy)

As well has having the option of importing all requests in the import queue, or all requests in a project, the TMS also allows you to import individual requests from the import queue. The requests you choose are imported in the order in which they are placed in the import queue. The order of the mport steps corresponds to an import of all requests. Importing single requests can either be _ an exception, if you usually use mass transports _ or the rule if you usually use single transports. Examples for using single transports:

_ Every week, you import changes into your production system that you have previously tested in your QA system. To do this, you have scheduled an import that periodically imports all waiting requests. If you want to correct an error in the production system between these

import times, you can import the request into your quality assurance and production system at an earlier time. As standard, the TMS imports a request of this type as a preliminary transport. This means that it stays in the import queue after it has been imported, and is imported again in the next scheduled import of all requests, to avoid inconsistencies. In this scenario you can also use the Transport Workflow [Ext.], as of Release 4.6. Developers make the transports into a test system. Developers have the authorization to import their own requests. Since only individual transports are made into the system in this case, the system administrator sets the system so that the requests do not remain in the import queue after the import (see Starting the Import for Single Requests.To find out about the requirements you need to meet, we recommend that you read the following

information:

_ Transport Strategy in the CTS [Ext.]

_ Transport Strategy for Single Transports [Ext.]

Test Imports

Before you start or schedule any of the import methods discussed above, you can test them with a test import. This lets you recognize any conflicts with original objects and repairs.

Thanks Kiran For your detaild reply.

I have one more doubt, please clarify my doubts. We want to tranport our transport reuest to file and we want to make CD of file and we want to give that file to customer. Please expalin me how to transport transport request to file and from File System how to import transport to target system. And Please let me know while doing this kind of transport what and all point we should to take care about security purpsoe.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Kiran,

You can copy the data and co files from /usr/sap/trans/data....file path better known to basis... copy these to your CD.

Ask the client to copy these files from CD to their system..ie in the respective folders...

NOTE-

The data and co files are stored in different folders on server.

Reward points if useful.

Hi Kiran,

Thanks for your reply.

So Once we copy in client system respective CD again in client system we have to execute the transaction STMS and import or any other step we have to carry?

One more thing while copying the data and cofile in the CD whether we need to take any precaution about our username and SAP System.

Please clarify my this 2 doubts i will award points.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regds,
