Delete an already released transport request

Former Member

Hello together,

I have a problem in SE09/SE10 with a transport request.

The request is as follows:

Modifiable

D01K939667 100 Username /Description

D01K939668 Username Customizing Task

The requests itself has the status "Modifiable". The task D01K939668 within the request is already released. I have to delete the whole request now, but when trying to delete it, it says "Request D01K939668 already released". How can I delete a task within a request, that is already released?

Thank you for any help!

Best regards

Klaus Hirschegger

Of course, you can

But you have to chnage status of the request:

  1. Use transaction SE38 or SA38 and run program: RDDIT076
  2. Set your request number and run the program
  3. After request is shown double click on it
  4. You should be able to change status from R to D

And now, you can delete the transport for example in transaction: SE10...

Hello Klaus,

Once a task in a request is released then the request can not be deleted. I face such issues sometimes. In such cases I release the transport locally i.e I remove the target group. What this means is that the changes in the transport don't move to other systems.

As far the OS approach is concerned what Srinath meant was deleting data and co-files. However these files are created only when a transport is released with a target group which means that unless you immediately delete it from import queue of next system it will get imported.

I would recommend the local release approach. Changes dont move anywhere and no files are created.

Ruchit ,Can you give details about how to release requests locally ,do we have to

Hello Srinath,

1. Goto Se01 and give the transport and enter.

2. Double click on request header. You will get a pop up where you will find the target group of the request.

3. remove the group and save.

4 Now if such a transport is released it will be released locally.

Hi Ruchit,

I have doubt, when you say "now if such a transport is released it will be released locally"

what do you mean to say? is it that it will be released to local objects or what exactly happens ?

i am newbie to SAP please do excuse me if its a silly question.

Hi,

Ask ur basis team to delete the following request.

The path to delete is usr/sap/trans/data

In this file ur data is stored

and in usr/sap/trans/bin

in this directory ur request is stored.

Ask the basis team to look into this Directory. They delete the request on OS level.

Hi Samuel,

I have similar situation. I just wanted to know that after deleting released transport have you checked development system. The changes you made and attached to transport are revert or not???

Thanks

Transport is only like list of changes which were made in the system. By transport deletion you will not change anything in the system...
