Attaching Changelists to Transport RequestsLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

To transport a changelist through your system landscape you can attach it to a transport request. You can either use the preselected transport request or another one that you select with the Transport Organizer.

When you attach a changelist to the transport request, the Change Organizer checks if changelists that have already been created (and that contain changes to the same development objects) have already been transported. If this is not the case, the Change Organizer automatically attaches the older changelists to the same transport request.

Prerequisites
