In the SAP ABAP system, the Relocations Request Type in transaction code SE10 is used to move development objects between different SAP systems. It has the following three types:
-
Relocations without package change: This type of request allows the developer to develop objects in another SAP system on an ad-hoc basis. For example, one requirement might be to want to do special development in a separate SAP system so as not to interfere with the development process. It basically provides the same functionality as a transfer copy. This request type allows us to move the object's original location to the target system.
-
Relocations with package change: You can use this request type when you want to permanently change the development system of a single object. This request type allows changing the original location of an object to the target system and at the same time changing the package of the object. Packages are changed automatically. If the appropriate package is selected, the object will have the correct transfer properties as soon as it is imported into the requested target system. From here, you can edit them in Transmittable Change Requests without any further setup.
-
Relocations of complete packages (with change of transport layer): This request type can be used when you want to permanently change the development system of a complete package. This request type allows automatic changes to the transport layer of a package. To do this, just specify the package and transport layer to be assigned to the package. The requested object list is automatically set and includes all objects in the package. The transport layer is changed automatically. If an appropriate transport layer is selected, objects will have the correct transport properties immediately after they are imported into the requested target system. From here, they can be edited in a transportable change request without any further setup.
We select an ABAP class, select it in the transaction code SE24 Goto->Object directory entry, and then we can change the development package stored in this ABAP class:
