Starting the Import for Single Requests
Use
As well as giving you the option of importing all requests in the import queue, or all requests in a project, TMS also lets you import one or more single requests. The requests are imported in the order in which they are placed in the import queue.
This import method is best used for a few individual requests; it is less suitable for large numbers of requests.
Importing single requests can either be
To find out about the requirements you need to meet, we recommend that you read the following information:
Prerequisites
To import your own requests, you need the authorization S_CTS_IMPSGL. This authorization is in the profile S_A.SYSTEM.
Note for the system administrator:
If you want to give members of your development team the authorization to import their own requests into a certain system, then you should create an authorization profile for these users and the system. This profile must then contain the authorization S_CTS_IMPSGL. The profile S_A.SYSTEM usually contains too many authorizations.
To import individual requests from more than one user into a system, you need the authorizations S_CTS_IMPSGL and S_CTS_IMPALL. These authorizations are in the profile S_A.SYSTEM.

If you still want to import them, for example if the QA system is not available, you must activate the requests.Note that you cannot import requests with the import status Request was rejected, Import is running or Request is already imported.

The target client and the logon language are irrelevant here.

After the import has finished, you can view the
import history to check the return codes for all import steps. You can also go to the corresponding transport logs from the import history.
