Return Codes in the Transport Log

To establish whether a transport has been successful, you need to know the meaning of the return codes generated by the programs used for the transport.

Return Code	Meaning
0000	Transport ran without errors
0004	Warnings were issued. All objects were transported successfully. There were special actions for individual objects that may not have been intentional, for example, a warning is issued during the export if the request contains an object deletion. Read the warnings.
0008	Individual objects could not be transported successfully. You must analyze and correct the errors. Examples of errors during the import include: Original object was not overwritten, Repaired object was not overwritten
0012 or higher	A critical error has occurred, probably not caused by the contents of the request. You must inform your system administrator.
5000+x	Return code combining the value 5000 and the highest return code in all import steps performed within an incompletely processed import call. Any missing import steps (such as imports into further systems) are processed as part of a further import call. 5000 indicates that the import step was started but not yet completed. x specifies the highest return code of all import steps in the imported transport requests. Example The return code 5004 indicates that parts of the import of a transport collection were performed and that the highest return code was 4. This return code only occurs when using central CTS. Once the import of the transport collection is completed, the final return code is less than 5000.

A return code always has a detailed long text. Read this text for information on the transport error.
