Stores a transaction data client dependent or not ?

[Former Member]

Hi,

can anyone tell me how i can figure out if a transaction stores the data client dependent or not ?

I have to make a list of transactions in which there must be a note for every tx if the data behind is client dependent or not.

A finished list would be enough but much better would be some sqls to find it out for a specific tx.

Thanks in advance

Hello Mirko,

Goto SPRO>settings>User specific>IMG structure>dependence and then enter. After that go SAP Reference IMG and then check. But the corresponding transaction details won't be readily available. You need to check that urself.

Hi

Generally:

- basis transactions are mosty client independent

- abap development is mostly client independent

- users / user management is client dependent

- application transactions are client dependent in general

Best regards

Edit: regarding sql, you can see if a transaction works on tables which have a client column to point out if it is client specific

Hi MHO,

This is not a technically correct statement:

abap development is mostly client independent

ABAP development is done on repository objects and has nothing to do with client except for SAPSCRIPTS which are kind of client dependent repository. Respository otherwise has no link with client concept.

Hello Ruchit

Lets do an example:

Transaction SE38 - Abap Editor, i create a program z_my_prog1 in client 100 and save it. Then i log on to client 000 and i can see it. When i do an sql trace i will see my prog gets stored in table REPOSRC, which does not have a client field. Therefore i consider SE38 as client independent. Abap reports are in fact not client specific, you cannot have my_prog1 in one client, you will always have in all clients.

Hi MHO,

Then you don't have a clear understanding of client and repository concept.
