Basics of Transport ControlLocate this document in the navigation structure

This section suggests ways to organize development projects in a distributed environment, using the Change and Transport System (CTS).

The CTS enables you to organize development projects in complex distributed system landscapes.

For example, you can do the following:

  • Transport and freeze completed development work and automatically distribute it to several production, test, training, or development systems.
  • Distribute development projects among different SAP Systems on the basis of packages.
  • Transfer critical development work to separate SAP Systems.

If you do not want to organize your own development projects using different systems, then you do not need all the functions provided by the CTS. In this case, you can set up a simple distributed environment consisting of two systems (development and production system) or three systems (development, quality assurance, and production system).
