hi,

Client independent data is valid accross the clients whereas client dependent data is valid for the current client.

Technical:

when we add a field MANDT of type MANDT then our table is client dependent and is visible to only that client. But if this Field is not added to the table then we can access the table using any client number.

tables which can be access by all user are client independent (no mandt field in table)

tables which can be access by some specific user are client dependent (use mandt field in table)

Hi,

Client dependent or independent transfer requirements include client specific or cross client objects in the change requests. Workbench objects like SAPscripts are client specific, some entries in customizing are client independent.

If you display the object list for one change request, and then for each object the object attributes, you will find the flag client specific.

If one object in the task list has this flag on, then that transport will be client dependent.

You can also find a list of the high class objects in SAP, here you will see the flag on/off. Use TCODE SOBJ.

Reward if useful!

Client dependent is the objects which will be in only that particular client.

Client independent is the objects which will not be in other client.

For example:

If a table is having MANDT field the entries in that table are client dependent.

Standart texts are also cliend dependednt object.If u create a text in 010 client and check the same in 011 client it will not be there.

Programs are client independent If u create a program in 010 client and check the same in 011 client it will be there.

Reward if helpful.
