Transport query from test system

Question

Hi
We want to create our BEx queries in our test system and thereby transport them to the production system. We don’t want to create the queries in the development system because we don’t have any data there.
Scenario: create a query in the test system, then use Transport Connection in RSA1 to put the query into a transport.
When we try to add the query to a transport, we have to put it into another package then $tmp. We are not allowed to do that and we get the message: System setting does not allow changes to be made to object ELEM A5S4UZE…... We have set all the settings in Object Changeability (in Transport Connection) to Everything Changeable. Do we have to open the test system using se06 and scc4 to be able to transport BEx objects from the test system to the production system?
We use BI 7.0 SP15.
Kind regards
Erik

Erik,
It's all much easier than that...use xml.
Go to the transport conection in your test system.
Note the xml export import icons.
Select your query under object types.
Export as xml..it will create a file that you can store in your PC.
Go to your target system.
Execute an import of your new xml file. That's all...now you have your query in P..and you can forget about all the STMS and requests, etc..
