Client export/import

[Former Member]

Dear Expertise,

I have a task to perform client export in SAP R/3 4.7 systems. I need your guidance in judging that, do I need to release all the unreleased workbench requests existing in the source client before performing a client export in the source client and is there any possibility that i can choose multiple copy profiles (sap_all,sap_cust etc.) SCC8 screen.i know it's a silly question but i dont want to take any risk.

Please help me out by spending few seconds of you.

Thanks in advance

Hi venkat,

You cant choose multiple profiles for client copy.

Hi Satya,

Yes you better relese the requests and here is the procedure to Client Export/Import.

You dont need to create the client using trx SCC4. The 'target system' field shown in trx SCC8 is for the systems created in STMS. If you want to export your QA client to your PRD client defined in STMS, just choose this system in SCC8.

Choose the profile you want to use to export your client. Could be for example: SAP_EXBC (cutomizing, master user, clint-independant data).

After you execute the export client, you will have 3 transport transport request orders (you can see the progress of the process with SCC3):

<SID>KO<nnnnn> -> client-independant data

<SID>KT<nnnnn> -> client-dependant data

<SID>KX<nnnnn> -> client-dependant texts

and their corresponding cofiles files...

To import these orders you must follow this order:

1) <SID>KO<nnnnn> -> client-independant data

2) <SID>KT<nnnnn> -> client-dependant data

3) <SID>KX<nnnnn> -> client-dependant texts

For the 1 and 2 you must use these commands:

tp addtobuffer PERKOnnnnn <SID> pf=TP_DOMAIN_DER.PFL u18

tp import PERKOnnnnn <SID> client xxx pf=TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL u18

(for each order 1 and 2)

where TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL is the name of your domain profile. You can find it here: <drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin.

For the 3rd transport request (texts) you can use SCC7.

Hope this helps you, good luck!

Regards,

Hari.
