How to place a ABAP report program into a Change Request?

[Former Member]

I used to create an ABAP4 report program, but maybe when I created it, I created it as local or $TMP that there is no any Change Request related to this program. Now I want to transport this program from Development to Test, how would create a Change Request that includes this program?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

First you should change the delopment class. Use tr.code SE80 to change the development class.

You can do this by changing the development class in SE38. I forget the exact menu path, but look for something like Object Directory something. It will throw you a dialog, where you can change the development class. Doing so, should prompt you for a transport request.

Clone the program with a new name and attach it to new transport from a valid Dev Class or Package type using the Create new Request button.

Kevin,

Generally objects saved in a local package are not transported. You should always assign those objects to a change request and a developemnt class or package.

Copy your program in to a new program and assign that new program to a CTS and a package. Then you always can rename the new program name to the old programs name once after deleting the old program.

Thanks

In SE38, enter program name, and click change. click go to---> object directory entry. In the dialog, click the change button, change your development class. This should prompt you for your change request.

Hi Kevin

If you want to transport your program you have to assign a development class to it.

So you can do it by SE38:

Go To ->Object directory entry

A popup'll come, push CHANGE ICON and insert a dev class.
