Transport to other client

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Weidong/Heinrich,
Thanks Heinrich - I missed the R/3 version change. Slightly important!
 
Yes  I agree with Heinrich, best solution is to set up a
transport route between your two systems.
 
Transport route could be turned off
after transports have been made if necessary.
 
Business objects, business object program, workflow templates,
standard tasks, roles, etc. can be transported on a normal
client-independent change request.
 
Event linkage can be transported on a customizing change request.
 
Don't forget to transport or set up business object delegation if you are
using it.
 
Agent assignment still needs to be done in the new system.
 
Activation of workflow definition, business object and event linkage
should be checked in the new system after transport and if necessary redone.
 
 
Regards,
Jocelyn.

Dear weidong
 
Workflow does not allow for a "download upload entire
workflow setup" step. Im sure we all wished it did.
The only components you can download and upload using
functionality available in abab workbench (se38/se80)
would be your code - I.e your object definition, your
roles, your check functions, some background tasks.
 
Given this, I propose 3 possible solutions
1. The most obvious one - redo everything in the new
client.
2. Do the download-upload for your code only redo the
workflow definition in the new system.
3. Try this before opting for solutions 1 and 2.
Ask your basis administrator to set up a transport
route to your test client via transaction STMS. The
basics behind a transport revolves around an export
and an import.
If you are transporting from unix to unix or from nt
to nt this might work. Do however consult OSS on the
implications of transporting from 4.5 to 4.6 before
attempting this. SAP is backward compatable and should
be able to import your transport without errors.
 
Good Luck
 
Hein Bence
