Hi Sreedhar,

This Transporting is not an XI Developer Work.

This is to be done by BASIS guys.

Havin the Knowledge of Transporting is good , so that we one can understand the concept strongly.

We have 2 types of Transport

1) File system mechanism

2) CMS transport

Check these on File system Mechanism

In Integration Repository object:

Right click on the Namespace which you want to send to Quality system and select the export optin and export

it....this will create a .tpz file on the server following path

Hi,

Overview of Transition from Dev to QA in XI

/people/sap.india5/blog/2005/11/09/xi-software-logistics-ii-overview

Two types of transport mechanism are used in PI.

• File transport method. - Manual process

• CMS transport method.-automated process.

File transport method:

CMS transport method:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a8/5e56006c17e748a68bb3843ed5aab8/frameset.htm

• CMS for SAP Exchange Infrastructure:

• Configuration of CMS in Central NWDI & SLD to transport XI objects:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ef/a21e3e0987760be10000000a114084/frameset.htm

Usually Basis people handle the transport,but again it depends upon the project roles and responsibility everyone holds.
