transport

hi guru,

i must transport, a CR already imported in BW production, back to the development system.

How can do it?

thanks

Hi,

Why do you need to do that. Whatever changes that are already in Prod should be present in your dev system assuming that you did the changes in Dev and transported to Prod.

If you want to back out the Prod changes, then suggest you do the required changes in Dev and then migrate them to Prod thus overwriting the earlier changes.

Hi Luigi,

For this you need an active transport 'connection' from the prod system to the dev system. Your basis team should be able to help out with that, but this is not usual to maintain...why do you need to do this?

some object was modified directly on the production system

Hi Luigi,

So, if possible, it might be easy if you can make the same change to the object in dev and transport the change back upto Prod. This way the systems will be in sync...

Hi Bhanu,

I was thinking will his request from PRD to DEV will not overwrite his changes in Dev.

Is it really required to make changes in Dev first?

Please correct if I'm wrong.

Hi Rohini,

What I meant was, either 1. you make the transport move from Prod to Dev (which is not a usual scenario and mayface resistance from basis), so as option 2. just make the changes in Dev and move the transport from Dev to Prod, just to complete the cycle and making sure that all systems are in sync.

Hope this helps...

Hi,

Yes they will. But for that one change, BASIS has to set up a reverse transport path which is not recommended.

Also from a Best Practices perspective, you should always do changes in Dev and then transport them through and not the other way round as the Prod is a live client. You need to test your changes and get them approved before you migrate them to Prod.

Objects shouldn't be touched in Prd unles absolutely necessary which is very very rare and only in cases that your Prd env is the problem for that object and it functions properly in all other environments.

For all the above reasons, we should always do changes in Dev and then migrate them through.

Those are my 0.02
