Transfer of data

[Former Member]

Hi SAP gurus,

How do you transfer a group of data or any master data from one server to another. eg. If customer master has to be moved from development to test server.

Thanks in advance

Dear Friend,

Master data Cannot be transported in the system using transportation.

Only Customizing can be.

What best we can do is to create a flat file from the table veiw.

in excel.from SE16

and then use LSMW or develop a BDC by your ABAPer and upload the same in the required Server.

thanks,

HI srikanth,

It is not possible to transport master data from one client to client, it is possible through tools like LSMW and BDC and SCATT etc.,

Upload means nothing but creation of customers in a huge number, it is not possible to create large number customers manually so companies use therse tools to upload master data like customer master and materaial master data.

Ex:suppose if u hav 10000 customers if u want to change the palnt data in those customers for all tose customers it is not possible to change for each and every customer , in this case these tools are so helpful, this is nothing but uploading of plant in the customer master data.

Hi

You can use transaction BD12, Then IDoc will be created and posted to recieving system.

This is transfer from one server to other using ALE.

Means you can transfer data from Development to Quality.

Please Note : ALE setting should have been done before trying this option.
