Default value: true

If the parameter is set to true , tp tries to activate the transport daemon in the SAP System whenever it is needed. Otherwise the transport daemon must run periodically and tp waits for the daemon to fulfill its communications task.

The transport daemon is the ABAP report RDDIMPDP. Another ABAP report is provided for periodic scheduling: RDDPUTPP.

If you set the parameter impdp_by_event to false , you have to execute the report RDDPUTPP once in each SAP System of your transport environment. Do this in client 000 as user DDIC. If it is set to true , another ABAP report is provided. RDDNEWPP schedules the transport daemon in the background processing, enabling tp to start it by generating a specific event. To do this tp needs further parameters. Either parameter system_nr and system_pf , or sapevtpath must be set. Under Windows NT, the parameters system_pf and sapevtpath must always be set.

Default value: sapevt

If you set impdp_by_event to true , this parameter contains the complete program path for the specific SAP System that can send an event to the SAP System. The program is normally called sapevt and is in the directory where all the programs belonging to an SAP System are stored. When you transport with tp , work as the owner of the SAP System (from the operating system point of view) because you do not have to change the default value.

This parameter gives tp the instance identification number of the relevant SAP System. Therefore, you must specify the value for each SAP System specifically. The value is needed if you set impdp_by_event to true so that tp can send the event to the transport daemon, which triggers its execution.

This parameter gives tp the complete path for the profile of the relevant SAP System. The value may be needed, if you set impdp_by_event to true . tp can then send the event to the transport daemon, which triggers its execution.
