Version TADIR vs. VRSD

[Former Member]

Out of pure technical interest.

I always thought table VRSD contains the versions for the objects in TADIR. But creating a program ZXYZ (as R3TR PROG ZXYZ in TADIR) results as REPS ZXYZ and REPT ZXYZ in VRSD.

Any idea how these values are related (OK, by the name - but why not having a matching object type)

Hi,

There is a basic differentiation between whole objects and sub-objects.

TADIR is an OBJECT DIRECTORY TABLE which stores each object with Object ID.

REPS is for report code and REPT is for all the text elements used within the code.

So both have same version.

The following sub-objects belong to the whole object R3TR PROG amongst others

Regds,

R3TR PROG consists of the sub-objects LIMU REPS (report source) and LIMU REPT (report texts). You can change and transport the report texts independently from the report source, so the versions also must be kept separately.

Hi tjuninge

R3TR PROG

is the transport entry for the whole program after initial creation. REPS is for a single include (that may be the main program) and REPT are the report texts.

Both may be changed (and put in versions) separately.

Kind regards,

Thanks, I got three answers at virtually no time. For the sake of fairness I have tried to share the point as best possible.
