Programme SAP SOTR_PROGRAM_01 - OTR Program


The report compares OTR texts in different systems (for example, tocheck transports). It also enables you to create a transport requestfor selected texts.

Selections:
For the comparison to be correct, the same selections must be enteredon both selection screens for the download and upload.
Short Text/Long Text
Choose whether you want to compare short texts or long texts.
Only the first 3000 characters of long texts are compared, and internalformatting characters are not included.
Download/Upload
Choose whether you want to temporarily store the data for thecomparison in a file (download) or whether you want to compare the datastored temporarily with that on the database (upload).
If transport errors occur, the comparison (upload) should be executedin the source system, that is, in the system from which the texts areto be transported. This enables you to create a transport requestdirectly from the program. Downloads should be executed in the targetsystem, that is, in the system into which the data was transportedincorrectly.
