Hi,

in your target system, go to STMS, open the import queue of the development system and add the desired tp(s) manually. But I doubt this will be possible without access to the local server file system. Afterwards they can be imported like other requests, I would also tick 'as original' to get future access without object keys.

as far as I understand the question, Ajit wants to get a transport (oir so to say the files of the transport) from one transport domain to another transport domain without the help of a SAP basis guy.

This is not possible, and that's a good thing, cause if you could get around these guys, there'll be a lot more damaged in SAP systems by people just doing exactely this.

Kind regards,

Dear Ajit,

When you release a request, SAP always save two files (Data and Cofile) in your /usr/sap/trans directory. You can find this directory in your Transport Domain Controller (uses TA STMS to check it).

Inside /usr/sap/trans/data directory you'll find files with the name RNNNNNN.SID where:

NNNNNNN -> Request number

SID -> System ID.

Inside /usr/sap/trans/cofile directory the only difference is that the file starts with "K" instead of "R".

If I understood your answer, you'll need to backup both directories.

If you need to import the backuped transpor request to another SAP System, follow those steps:

1) Restore the files inside the same directories in your new SAP System;

2) Add to buffer the requests in new system. To do that you can create a script using "TP" command or add manually using transaction STMS;

3) Import the requests.

<b>Important Note:</b> Please be carefull with all requests that contains standard objects.

If you have furthers questions please don't hesitate to answer.
