Mass Maintenance of Tcode Variants

Many a times there are business scenarios wherein there is a possibility of migration to a new entity, for example if your organization decides to go for the implementation of a standard chart of account for the existing company codes, new company codes might be created. In such cases when the company code changes we also have to ensure that in all the Report variants the new company code needs to be updated. In case the report numbers cross hundreds it would be a painstaking process to change each and every variant. (Same case for background jobs too)

Example Scenario

Now?  There was a business change and company code IN01 would no longer be used and will be replaced with IN02. The ABAP and BASIS teams are entrusted with the responsibility of creating new variants/change the existing variants.

Transporting in same R/3 system but in different Clients

When handling the objects which are Client dependent like SAPScripts, we need to transport (say from test to development or quality or production on same R/3 System but different Clients) them from one client to another as per requirement.

For the same purpose, we can use SCC1 Tcode.  SCC1 T-Code u can do the transport in same R/3 System but different client like

Source : 100(DEV)
Target-1 : 200 (QAS)
Target-2: 300 (PRD)

scc1

SCC1 Just specify Source Client and the Request number and import the request.
In this process u don’t have to release the transport request.
