Upload/download SAP transport request

Updated May 18, 2018

Introduction

These are two simple and useful utilities to upload/download binary files of transport requests from/to front-end PC. They make possible to transfer transport requests between different systems without asking Basis people (nevertheless you have to have a sufficient authority). They also could be a demo of some TMS function modules usage. The utilities were originally developed by Igor Yaskevitch (senior basis/development consultant at IBS Company) and enhanced by Sergey Korolev. This publication made with explicit permission of Igor Yaskevitch.

Language and Platform

The utilities were originally developed for SAP R/3 4.6c, some additions were made under SAP ERP 4.7. The utilities could be used (though, were not thoroughly tested) in any SAP basis system above 4.6 which employ Transport Management System (TMS). Tested on MiniSAP 6.40: upload working fine

Upload Transport request utility

This easy-to-use utility uploads transport request binaries from user front end PC, adds request to the import queue, and starts single request import. The report checks the following authority objects:


    strong>S_CTS_ADMI, with values ‘TADD’ (authority to add request to the import queue), ‘IMPS’ (authority to start request import) for field CTS_ADMFCT
    strong>S_DATASET with field values ACTVT = ‘34’ (Write access for application server files), FILENAME = corresponding request file name




The utility has the following parameters:


  • Co-file name - full file path of the request command file, file name must be of the form ‘Knnnnnnn.SSS’, where ‘nnnnnnn’ is the request number, and ‘SSS’ – source system identifier. Request command file can be selected via F4 value request. Remaining request data files must be located in the same frontend directory.


  • Add request to import queue – if the flag is set then request is added to the import queue and also

  • Target client – client number which should be assigned to the request*

  • File path separator (on WAS) – separating character for building application server file path. The parameter is operating system dependent and is calculated in INITIALIZATION event. As a rule there is no need to change the default value.


Download Transport request utility

The utility downloads transport request binaries from application server to the user client PC. The request must be released. The utility checks authority to access application server files, object S_DATASET with field values:


  • ACTVT = ‘33’ (Read access)


  • FILENAME = corresponding request file name




The utility has the following parameters:


    strong>Request/Task – Number of the request to download. The request must be released. Search help provides a tree list of released requests.

  • Target folder – Full path name of client PC folder where request binary files are to be downloaded to.


  • File path separator (on WAS) – separating character for building application server file path. The parameter is operating system dependent and is calculated in INITIALIZATION event. As a rule there is no need to change the default value.
