Transporting reports

Comment: The dependent object class "Report" must be selected.

The following are transported:

Transporting key figure schemes

Note the following when transporting key figure schemes: each time a key figure scheme is transported, the special key figure scheme <space> (containing the numbering for the value fields at which every other key figure scheme is built) is also transported along with it.

In certain cases (such as after value fields have been deleted), this numbering can differ in the source and target systems. If the transport is run in such cases, the key figure schemes in the target system that had been created previously and were not re-transported this time will then contain incorrect data. In that case, you should transport all key figure schemes again.

Recommendation:Do not transport any key figure schemes if you create all or some of them manually in the target system. Also ensure that the key figure scheme is not transported as a dependent object in the report or form.

If the target system is supplied exclusively by transports, the numbering is realigned with each transport.

Transporting operating concerns

The following independent object classes are available:

To find out which objects are transported for these object classes, see the F1 help information for the object class in question.

Note 1: The way the objects are grouped corresponds approximately to the individual IMG chapters. The "Master Data" nodes are displayed separately. In many installations, different master data is maintained in the test and productive systems. It is not appropriate to transport this data (or settings referencing this data) in this case. Transports can be managed flexibly with the selection options.

Note 2: Large master data tables can cause performance problems in the transport program. In such cases, do not transport the master data tables with the transport program. Instead, transport them separately (and manually) with the Workbench Organizer.
It is recommended that you also apply this procedure if the master data in the test and productive systems is to be kept identical.
