Transport package to Prod

I have found an issue with transporting package to Production system.It is necessary to transport the package itself to QA before you transport any thing assign to this package to QA. But I observe the transport went to production system without transport package to Prod first.
Could some one explain this?
And also, could I transport every thing which assigned to this package together with transport the package?
Thnaks a lot!
Jason

Did you check with SE80 if the package exists in Prod? It seems quite abnormal that the transport has gone without importing the package first ...
Best regards

Sekhar,
Please check the transport_logger trace (logs/transport.log) to troubleshoot transport problems.
Set the loglevels to analyze the transport problems debug in the pcdstartup.properties file for the categories pcd.tracelevel.basictransport and pcd.tracelevel.GI.Transport
Please check Note 679516: Central Note for the Transport Package Editor
Please check Note 743857: Upload issues in cluster scenarios
Please examine this file for pure UI problems like the editor does not load or an object cannot be added to a transport package. pcd_admin_tools_logger (logs/pcdadmintools.log)
Hope it helps.

Error while importing Transport Package ?

Hi,
I have created a Transport Package which includes the following things :
1. Two folders
2. Two iViews
3. one .par file
I am trying to Import the above package by choosing the option 'Source for package file - client' and then browsing where my .epa file is placed.
When i click the Upload Button I am getting the following error -
'Error extracting the package file. Check the log file for details'
What can be reason for this error?
Regards,
Vikas Khandpur

Hi Vikas
It is not generally advised to Package a .PAR file into a .EPA file. Because a .PAR file may depend on parts that are not included in the .EPA file which might cause incosistent transports.
You can directly upload a .PAR file into the Portal. Just go to System Administration -> Support -> Portal Runtime -> Administration Console and upolad the .PAR file.
Try removing the .PAR file from the Transport Package and download the exported .EPA file. Import this new file and see if it works this time.
Hope that helped

Transport layer and transport package

I have a fundamental query on transport package and layer.
Objects are classified in packages depending on the project and put in $TMP or test package else they are local ? Only objects belonging to a transport package can be transported , others are not ? How transport package is defined ? All objects must be a part of transport package else can not be transported ?
ABout transport layer, I understand this is used to define which path objects will take during transport particularly when there are multiple transport routes. But what are the advantages of it ? How we can define it (trx code/menu path) ?
Is it mandatory to use transport package and layers ?

Hi Mike,
Just to clarify a few basic concepts:
A transport package (formerly called a "development class", a term you may still encounter) groups related development objects. Whenever you create a new development object (table, program, ...) you have to assign it to a package; the object is then placed into a transport request. Alternatively you can indicate it is a local object (its package is then "$TMP") but such an object is non-transportable.
A transport layer identifies the route that transportable devmt objects must follow. Typically in your system you will have two layers: a layer usually called Zxxx (with xxx = SID of your development system) is used for your own developments. Another layer called "SAP" is used for transporting SAP objects, for example changes to standard SAP code implemented via transaction SNOTE and recorded in repairs. Without the "SAP" layer in place, repairs would be non-transportable.
Each transport package belongs to a layer. You assign the layer when you create a new package in transaction SE80. You can change the layer later on, but this is rarely needed and can cause quite a few side-effects. SAP objects always have layer "SAP". The layers themselves are managed in STMS, under "Transport Routes".
Hope this clarifies things,
Rgds, Mark

Portal Run time error when created a seperate role for Transport package.

Hi Experts,
I have created a seperate role for Transport Package(import/export iviews).
Normally we have transport package functionality in system admin.
Below steps i followed for creating the new role(trans admin)
1.Copied SAP provided system admin role to a seperate folder.
2.Deleted reamining portal objects(like UWL, portal display etc ..) except transport packege workset.
3.Renamed the role to trans admin.
I have assigned that role to my self, it is working fine to me when i clcik on export and import.I have super admin role.
when i assign this role to some portal users, Export is not working.
when user clicks on Export role they are getting below error.
Portal Runtime Error
An exception occurred while processing a request for :
iView : N/A

Returnable transport packaging for Subcontracting material

Dear All,
I have a doubt regarding a new process to be followed in our company. We need to issue raw material to our subcontractor for processing. We also intend to send packaging material to the subcontractor along with the raw material. Ie We are sending the raw material to the subcontractor along with the packaging material ( say, in boxes).
I would like to know how to address this issue.
What We tried
Standard SAP is allowing the vendor's Packaging material to be "received" from the vendor when we Purchase material from the vendor using movement type 501 'M'. After this, we are able to see this as a "special stock" as RTP ( Returnable Transport Packaging ) in T code MMBE. After this we can issue the packaging material back to the vendor using movement type 502 'M' . There is also a provision to send " our" packaging material to a customer through a Sale order, and receive it back from them.
But is there any standard process for sending "our" packaging to a subcontractor and receiving it back from them ?
We also tried including the packaging material in BOM, and sending it through 541 movement but in this case, when we perform Goods receipt ( 101 movement of the parent material ), the packaging material gets consumed, which should not happen. We want them back in stock.
We also tried using the option "Non - Ordered item" for the packaging material while performing Goods Receipt of the parent material. But this would increase the stock of the packaging material without us even issuing the same to the vendor initially. ie More stock will be there than is actually present.
So how else do we address this issue ?
Regards,
Velu

Hi Velu,
This scenario can be automated as well in BOM.
While maintaining the BOM for the subcontracting material, include the packaging component as twice, but one with negative quantity. PFB screen shot.
Also turn of the costing relevancy indicator and maintain material provision indicator as "K"(customer material) for both the line item.
So while doing GR for the sub contracting, system post automatically 543 and 545. Hope this is useful, if it is so, your rewards are awaited .

Assigning query elements to a transportable package

Hi experts,
when i create a query and want to transport it i have to assign it to a transportable package. The problem is that a query has a big number of elements which are assigned the package &TMP. I have to assign all these elements to a transportable package to transport. Is there a possiblility to assign all of it to a transprtable package in one step?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Best Regards,
Ali

Hi Ali,
I know this is more manual work.
But you can do this way -->
In the transport connector you have a push button called PACKAGE. Click on it and here you can filter on ibject type as ELEM now you will get all the elemements which are there in your system.
Now you need to select the required ELEM which are belongs to your query and then say OK this will prompt a popup to change the package. Now you can change the package here and then refresh the screen to see the changes.
Hope this resolves your issue.
Thanks

Iview not selected in the transport package during the export

Hello Expert,
I created a transport package to send the change I made on the iview com.sap.portal.masthead to QA system.
I added correctly the iview to the transport package but when I clicked on the button EXPORT to create the epa file, I found that the iview was not selected.
My change canu2019t be send to QA system.
Any idea how to fix this issue?
Thanks a lot.

Khaled,
You can not transport a standard content as it can overwrite the old version and create a new version of the content.
Refer the below link,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/26/edee3da7138e5be10000000a114084/content.htm
You can copy a the existing iView , change the id and transport the same. Use the changed iView everywhere instead of the standard ones in this case.

How to download a transport package in terms of abap code

Hi,
Is there any sample code or particular FM or anyway that could download a transport package which is then used to import to another server? I've looked at a few thread regarding downloading transport package but there's no specific tables or code that mentioned beside e071 or e071k.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Loo

Hi All,
I've found out that if i can download cofiles & data files for a program i can do the same for package. The rule here is that the program or package source system must be released in order to have the cofiles and datafiles created. Hence using the same source code to download a program i'm able to download the package too.
Thanks for sharing.

Regard!
Fish

Hi Ree,
As I mentioned in my previous reply it is working perfectly for me. The import is creating the required files in the PCD.
Let me explain how it is done.
Create a TP
Create a folder and add the required files(Workset,pages, iviews etc) to the the folder.
add the folder with all the contents(select 'Add all objects to transport package' from the content menu) to the TP.
Export the TP. give a name of your choice(removing the numbers)
Download it to the local machine using the dowmload link.
the file will be saved as a <i>TPName</i>.epa in your local drive.
in import, select 'client' for Source for Package Files.
brose and select the <i>TPName</i>.epa file.
upload the file, and you can see the contents.
then import it to the new environment. Now the complete folder stucture will be created in the PCD exactly as you created it for the TP.
I hope you are doing like this. It should work
Are yo able to open the downloaded file with WinZip?
cheers

Hi Martin
Thanks, it worked!
A note when uploading different files with "non-functional" extensions could have been nice there.
