Hi,

A client transport consists of two steps:

-

---

First a client export extracts client data from the source client

to files at the operating system level. Then the data is imported

from the operating system files into the target client.

To perform a client export, follow these steps:

-

---

1. Log on to the source client. From the SAP initial screen,

choose transaction SCC8 (Client Export). Select the data to

be copied using a profile.

2. Indicate the target system to which the client will be copied.

The target system must be defined in TMS as part of the

transport domain.

3. Begin the client export. Because copying is a lengthy

process, use scheduled background processing.

Do not run any other client copy tool before the

data export is finished.

This export process will generate up to three data files at the

operating system level:

• RO< number >: this file contains cross-client data

• RT< number >: this file contains client-specific data

• RX< number >: this file contains SAPscript texts

Depending on the type of data selected through the client

transport profile, the client copy command files added to the

buffer of the target system are as follows:

• <S-SID>KO<number>: this file is for cross-client data

• <S-SID>KT<number>: this file is for client-specific data

• <S-SID>KX<number>: this file is SAPscript texts

The client export change requests are not imported when an

Import all takes place. Therefore, you must import these requests into the target client using TMS. Choose one of the transport requests of the client transport in the Transport

Management System (TMS). The other transport requests belonging to this client transport are then automatically added in the correct order.

After the import process has completed, post-import activities are required for object generation steps. After completing the import, log on to the target client. From the SAP systems initial screen, choose transaction SCC7

I hope this will help you out

Hi Radhkrishna,

Many thanks for the answer.

Just also want to know about the prequisties like in remote client copy we have SP level should be same and temp tablespace size should be sufficient and in post action like creating logical system in similar way.

Any note or document showing complete details.
