Hi Gaurav,

When you create a package, it is assigned the standard transport layer of the SAP System (irrespsective of environment i.e. quality or production). You can also choose to assign which ever is available in the system, can be custom transport layer to which other (transportable) packages are grouped into.

And package type can be any depending on your requirement...generally it is specified as 'Not a Main Package'.

A main package is a special package containing a set of packages related by content. The main package does not contain any development elements itself; it only provides a structure.

Regards,

Abhijeet
