Import transport request for customizing (SAP Solution Manager 7.1)

If you use SAP® Solution Manager 7.2, transport requests are no longer required.

To be able to start customizing transactions and call customizing views from ARIS using SAP® Solution Manager 7.1, you must import the current transport request into the SAP system. You find the transport request on the installation media. The function module Z_VIEW_MAINTENANCE_CALL is created in the function group ZARIS. This function group is assigned to the development class /IDS/ARIS_ONLINE_GUIDE.

Procedure

  1. Copy the file K<number>.<SAP system SID> from the installation media to the directory \sapmnt\trans\cofiles.
  2. Copy the file R<number>.<SAP system SID> from the installation media to the directory \sapmnt\trans\data.

    The directory sapmnt normally corresponds to the directory \usr\sap. If you cannot find the cofiles and data directories under the specified paths, you can determine the correct path using the DIR_TRANS variable. To do this, log in to the relevant SAP system, and run transaction AL11.

    To transfer the transport request to the SAP system using the command line program TP.EXE, enter the following commands in the specified sequence:

    1. TP addtobuffer <SAP system SID>K<number> [target system SID]
    2. TP import <SAP system SID>K<number> [client on target system]

You can also execute the transport request using the transaction STMS:

Procedure

  1. Log on to the relevant SAP system as a system administrator.
  2. Execute transaction STMS. This takes you to the Transport Management System.
  3. Click Import overview.
  4. Double-click the relevant SAP system. This takes you to the import queue.
  5. In the menu, select Extras > Other requests > Add. The Add transport request to import queue dialog opens.
  6. Enter <SAP system SID>K<number> and confirm. You return to the import overview.
  7. Select the transport request.
  8. In the menu, select Request > Import. The Import request dialog opens.
  9. Activate the Options tab and check Ignore invalid component version.
