Do you mean "Transport strategy" etc.?

Or do you mean - DEV, Quality, Production as different landscapes?

If yes, see helpful link -

Hi,

In a standard SAP project implementation, the 3 standard transport procedures are:

Development System (DEV) --> QA System (QAS) --> Production System (PRD)

In the above structure, the Training Client (TRN) could be made from the copy of PRD (after when real-time master data has been available) or from QA system (where configuration has been tested in DEV client, and the master data is uploaded manually for training purposes)

Sandbox (standalone): This can be refreshed with Golden Client to reflect the latest configuration performed to facilitate the development/testing purposes.

-Development (DEV): Where all system configurations and development activities are carried out.

-Quality Assurance (QAS): Where functional testing is carried out. The System Integration Testing (carried out by the -Development Team) and the User Acceptance Testing (carried out by XXX appointed personnel) is carried out in this server.

-Training (TRN): End Users are trained on this server.

-Production (PRD): After the System is commissioned all data entry and administrative functions will be carried out in this server.

This is by far the standard landscape architecture that is adopted and practiced in most implementations.

Hope the above helps.

Thanks.

Transport Strategy -

Configuration work is done in DEV (Sandbox server) ---> transported to -

---

>...........

Above you can see that the consultant has done some configuration work in the Sandbox client. But this has to be "transported" to finally the Production server so that users can work with SAP.

This transport is done via Transport request.

In what manner to do the transport is called transport strategy.

Transport strategy could be - to send multiple requests simulatenously or to send request one at a time.

You as SAP SD consultant shall do the customizing and then when you save, you shall be able to create a transport request. Then with the help of Basis staff, the requests shall be transported to Quality and then finally to Production.
