Transports Tab

For each project in the upper screen section, you can display and work with all relevant transport information in the Transports tab of the lower section.

Note Note

The cross-system object lock can be activated for objects in transport requests associated with QGM projects to prevent changes being made to an object in any other transport request. For more information, see Cross-System Object Lock.

End of the note.
