Background documentation Accessing Content from Another Package Hierarchy  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

 

In order for a repository object to be able to access contents from another package hierarchy, a type of linkage between the client package hierarchy and the server package hierarchy must be created at the highest package hierarchy level. Since the root packages for a particular package hierarchy are usually structure packages, the general requirements for a linkage between the package hierarchies at the top level of structure packages are fulfilled. The corresponding structure package on the server side must provide suitable package interfaces for this, whereas the client side must register on the package interfaces by declaring the respective use access.

To demonstrate more clearly the connections between the structure packages and the required use accesses, we will make a distinction between the cases described below:

Case 1: Using Filter and Virtual Default Package Interfaces

Case 2: Using Default Package Interface

Case 3: Using All Structure Package Interfaces

Case 4: Using Interfaces From First Non-Structure Package Level

Case 5: Server Package Hierarchy with Nested Structure Packages
