BEx Query Transports (NW04s)

Question

I transported a few queries using transport connection collection from DEV to QA.
<b>These were the first transports.</b>
After these transports queries that had not yet been transported are requesting a request when they are being saved in query designer:
<b>error msg:</b> BEx transport request '' is not available or not suitable; Choose an existing request.
To correct this problem I created a standard BEx request in transport connection. But now, when a query is saved entries are entered in the standard request, even though the query was never transported. (??????)
I thought the query would go to standard BEx request the first time it was changed after it was transported.
Also, I want to create multiple requests assigned to different packages:
How do I assign the BEx query elements to the packages for transport?

Answer 1

You get that message when you try to modify a Query that has been previously transported, hence the "transport not suitable" message.  Therefore you need to assign a new transport to the query.  You can do this in two ways, Sameer mentioned one of the methods.  
Sameer's solution is risky, keeping a transport open (assigned) picks up any changes made in the BW environment.  That means that if some other BW developer is modifying objects, they will be saved to your "assigned" transport.  Therefore you must be careful and coordinate with your BW team if you are to use this method.  You must also remember to "delete" the assigned transport to "close" it in Transport Connection.
What I recommend is to go to Transport Connection via RSA1, object types, then query elements.  Collect the queries you wish to modify and create a new transport for them.  Next, make your query changes.  Make sure to exit all BW sessions (if you're on BW3.5) after you're done changing your query.  Then recollect the query in transport connection to pick up the new changes you made (assign it to the original transport).
