How does Repair Flag and reparing an Object work?

334 Views Last edit Aug 02, 2023 at 02:56 PM 2 rev

Hello,

Unfortunately, my knowledge of ABAP development is limited. But for working reasons I need a better understanding about the concept of repairs. I have also read a little in the literature. However, I still have some questions about repairs.

My aim is to better understand how a repair flag in table E070 is set and how you can remove it.

This much I have found out so far:

  1. A changed object in the Development System is the original. Transporting it to the Prod system creates a copy. If I now change the copy on the Prod system, it is a repair.
  2. But how should I imagine the repair in practice? Which transaction do I need for modifiation on productive system (SE38/SE80)?
  3. Does the system have to be set to modifiable (SE06) for a repair on an object?
  4. Does the client have to be opened for a repair (SCC4)?
  5. After modifying the object and creating a repaired object, what must the developer/admin do to delete the repair flag in transport log (E070). Must the modified object be transported from Prod to Dev?

Thank you in advance for your patient explanation
