Can TDMDC copy variants and jobs?

[Former Member]

Gurus:

We want to do an  ERP TDMDC (master data and customing) but ABAP variants and jobs have to be copied

to target as well.

I have looked into the TDMDC processing tree but see noi step is about this.

Are ABAP variants and jobs part of the master data and customizing so that I do not have to worry?

If not, what extra steps can have those items copied over?  I did TDMDC in anothe rproject and I cannot verify my concern any more

Our TDMS version is 3 patch 19.

Thanks!

Hi!

Well TDMS timebased standard scenarios doesn't copy client independent tables, only client dependent tables.Only system shell scenario does. Anyway you have 3 options:

- Create a system shell from your sender system;

- Copy all tables that support JOBS and VARIANTS using R3trans;

- Try to create a BPL to copy the required data (in this case I was able to create a demo for some TBTC* tables, but I don't really know the impact because the JOBCOUNT, and haven't tested it. It might not work)

The best, easiest and reliable option is the first.

Variants and job definition are not part of TDMDC scenario.
