Hi,

you can create package by using SE21 tcode.

from SE80 also you can create you package by selecting devclass..

main package means it is the main package..under this package u can create number of packages.

not main package means...you need to create this package under any package.

hope it will give some picture.

Hello,

You might be aware of Transportable & Non-Transportable Objects. All the Non-Transportable Objects (Local Objects) are stored in $tmp.

Now, assigning the Transport Layer identifies the Package whether the Objects are Transportable or non-Transportable. These transport Layers are maintained at the CTS (Change & Transport System).

Hope it was helpful.

Thanks and Regards,
