Multiple Application Systems

Question

Hi, everybody!
I'm developing an ERP application on Designer 6i r4, made of
multiple modules (e.g., "Global", "Sales", "Financial" etc.).
Some elements of each module (e.g., "Business Functions") need
to be available for use in the other ones.
1. What is the best structure to do that?
- A single Application System for the ERP, with children Folders
for each module?
- An Application System for the ERP, with children Application
Systems for each module?
- Other structure?
2. Do I need to perform some special operation to "share" the
elements with the modules?
Thanks for the help.

Hi Tetsuya,
here are more details for the procedure mentioned above:
Datafiles of transport requests are in most SAP-Installations located in /usr/sap/trans/data. They are named R<# of transport request>.<SID>
The cofiles are in most SAP-Installtions located in /usr/sap/trans/cofiles. They are named K<# of transport request>.<SID>
Do NOT change the names of the files. We've discovered that it's safer to zip those files, as some virus scanners in email-servers may scramble the files.
Locate the files in the appropriate directory of the target system and go to the import-queue using STMS.
Chose Extras / Other requests / Add to add the request to the queue (note: you must use the request number of the source-system e.g. <SID>K900123)
When you start the import, choose option "Overwrite Objects in unconfirmed Repairs", when you want existing objects to be overridden.
Hope, this helps
