Question:
Hello all:
I am managing an archaic SAP R/3 31i_com installation. We need to transport an ABAP QUERY. I was hoping that some of you experts on this forum could shed ligt on transporting ABAP QUERIES. I will also look at the OSS notes.
I have a Query and a Functional area. There is also a related Tranport Request Number.
Your help is appreciated.
Thanks,
SAPUSER01
Answer:
If you have the transport request number, release it and transport it. I think you may need to define your question more.
Answer:
My reply is based on a 46B system where you can't transport (in the traditional sense CTS) ABAP Queries (Well I haven't found it anyway). The only way you can do it is to perform an export from SQ01 and then import using the same. Of cours if you have defined user group or functional areas, the same procedure applies.
Cheers,
Am
Answer:
I think the same procedure works for 31i. I used the SQ01 transaction and exported the ABAP Query.
Thank you for your input.
Answer:
RSAQR3TR
Answer:
Dave,
Does the R3TR-RSAQ also take the User groups and Functional areas etc that are linked with the query?

Answer:
Just wanted to share my experience of transporting queries.
I needed to move a user group, 2 infosets and 3 queries from a 4.6 system to a 4.7 system.
When I tried doing this via the SQ* transactions I did not get the import/export option, so instead ran RSAQR3TR.
Step 1. Run RSAQR3TR in 'old' system. Select EXPORT and specify the objects to be transported.
(System includes these in an automatically created transport request)
Step 2. Release this transport and request it be transported to 'new' system.
(This results in the entries being populated in transport table AQTDB in 'new' system).
Step 3. Run RSAQR3TR in 'new' system. Select IMPORT and tick the Overwrite checkbox. Specify the transport number in the field labelled 'dataset with imports'.
(RSAQR3TR gives the message that stuff has been imported OK).
Step 4. In my example I still couldn't find the queries, so ran RSAQR3TR one more time, this time specifying 'Copy Standard Area -> Global Area'.
(Now my queries etc were available in new system).
Perhaps there are better ways, but after 1.5 days of struggling I was glad to get this far. SB
