HI,

Workbench request is for transporting objects like Programs, Function moduels etc basically Repository objects.

Where as customization requests are for transporting Customization data entered into customizatio tables from one system to anohter.

Workbench requests record changes made to ABAP Workbench objects.

There are local and transportable Workbench requests. (Local Workbench requests have the target system <space>.)

The package of the object and the transport route settings in the Transport Management System determine whether changes are recorded in a local or a transportable Workbench request.

Changes to Customizing settings are recorded in Customizing requests.

When you release the requests, the current status of the recorded settings is exported, and can then be imported into the consolidation system and, if necessary, into subsequent delivery systems.

The client settings determine whether

changes to the Customizing settings are possible

the changes are recorded

When you create Customizing requests, the transport target is automatically assigned the standard transport layer by the SAP system.

<b>Request type Transports of copies</b>

Transports of copies allow you to transport (sub-)objects in an object list into any other SAP System you want.

In contrast to Workbench or Customizing requests there is no automatic delivery into other systems for transport of copies.

Hii

Workbench requests are used by ABAPers while creating or changing the Repository objects.

Customizing requests are used by Functional Consultants while creating or changing the Customizing settings. Like Creating Enterprise Structure Etc.

Hi,

Please go through the below link you will get the entire information about transport organizer:

Changes to cross-client Customizing objects and to Repository objects are recorded in Workbench requests

In workbench request .... it can be programs (repository objects) and cross client data (ie not specific to one client).

Changes to client-specific Customizing objects are recorded in Customizing requests.

Customer customized data designed for a specific client is transported to another client using customizing request. Most of the cases these requests are something like changing values in tables (that too client specific).

More precisely

===========

Customizing request

Customizing requests contain changes to client-dependent tables.

Workbench request

Workbench requests contain changes to client-independent tables.

Hi Sreedhar,

Have a look at this

Transporting Customizing Settings

All system setting changes are put in project-specific change requests. You can transport the system settings into other SAP Systems with the change requests. The change requests are managed in the Transport Organizer.

There are two types of Customizing change requests:

Customizing request

Customizing requests contain changes to client-dependent tables.

Workbench request

Workbench requests contain changes to client-independent tables.

You can monitor the change requests by project in the project management. The Transport requests tab contains the following functions for the current client:

Activate CTS functionality

As prerequisite for creating change requests. When the CTS functionality is active, the pushbutton label changes to Display CTS project data. When the CTS project is finished, the pushbutton label changes to Reactivate CTS functionality.

Assigned CTS requests

Go to Transport Organizer request overview, where you can create requests for a project.

CTS project object list

The project object list is unchanged. When the customizing project is finished, the complete object list can be exported.

CTS project status switch

Sets the project status switch.

End CTS project…

End your customizing project. You can reactivate it later.

See transport control by project for further information about the Change and Transport System (CTS) for customizing projects.
