Best Way to Transport Area Menu

Former Member
0 Kudos

In this case its S000, main menu. I created a manual transport and included it (selecting freely by dev class) and saved the object entry directory for it in the transport. The Object List of request says "General storage structure: Definition of a structure".

My concern is I want to be sure everything is in this transport that is included on the area menu, texts, transactions, etc. I selected it at its object directory entry level so I am hoping I have everything included in the transport.

I also see a transport button directly in the toolbar in SE43N with S000 i the Area Menu field.

What is the best approach so that all elements are included on the transport?

Thanks.

Tom,

If you are editing a subnode in S000 , in the transport you will get the following entries


General structure storage: Definition of a structure	R3TR	SHI3	<Your Edited subnode>
Gen. structure repos.: Extension ID / structure assignment	R3TR	SHI6	<Your Edited Subnode>
Table Contents	R3TR	TABU	TMENU01
Table Contents	R3TR	TABU	TMENU01R
Table Contents	R3TR	TABU	TMENU01T

Here TMENU01R contains data related to transaction code and TMENU01T contains the translation entries

Please check your transport.

Another developer has added a sub report tree to one of the subnodes of this main tree in dev(transport A). We did not see it displayed in the main menu, so I inserted her changes (sub tree revision) into the main tree and they are now there(tansport B) (structure definition only).

You mention below:

Table Contents R3TR TABU TMENU01

Table Contents R3TR TABU TMENU01R

Table Contents R3TR TABU TMENU01T

These are in her transport for the added sub report tree(transport A). All the other components of the main menu are already in the target system. So, if I am thinking correctly, the main menu's original objects for the main report tree(TMENU01 - TMENU01R - TMENU01T) do not have to be included (transport B)since they are existing in the target system. Only the new stuff must be transported. So she should send her transport first, then I should send mine?.....It would be great if you can confirm this for me.......Thank-You

Tom,

As main Tree S000 already in the target system you need not to be retransported (ie no need to include in the transport) Please remember if you are editing a subnode or adding a subnode. your transport will only contain the subnode you are edited. (ie entries from TMENU01R) if you check Transport A & B the entries will be different for TMENU01R .

PS. It little bit difficult to understand the NODE_ID value. I don;t know how SAP is creating this NODE_ID dynamically.
