Import 4.6c transport into ECC 6.0

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have transport files created in 4.6c version of SAP containing ABAP objects. What is the procedure to import it into a ECC 6.0 development system? The two development systems are disconnected.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

It is not recommended to transport between 2 system having different SAP releases and support pack level.

Thanks

You may want to read the following note and other notes it references.

Note 1090842 - Composite note: Transport across several releases

I have seen this done for basis releases 7.0 to 4.6c and 6.20 to 7.0 without many issues, but we also did it to a sandbox first to confirm there were no issues.

Hi my friend

Once you release this request in 46C system, there will be corresponding cofile and data file generated in OS directories /usr/sap/trans/cofiles and /usr/sap/trans/data if default transport directory is not changed --> copy these 2 files to the corresponding directories of target ECC 6.0 system --> go to STMS in ECC 6.0 --> F5 once --> double click on the target development system --> Extras --> other requests --> Add --> find the request number --> import it as usual.

Be aware of any potential object inconsistency because of different kernel release before doing this !!

This is technically possible. But I will never do thins thing as the version of objects differ a large between 4.6c and ECC 6.0 system and this could make system inconsistent.
