Summary :
This SAP Note addresses cross-release transports between SAP Basis Release 7.0* and 7.1*, highlighting key transport issues and requirements. It details the format changes in report source storage and table key data types post-Basis Release 7.10, leading to potential import errors like "Input buffer too short" and key type restrictions. Enhanced packaging definitions impede compatibility with lower releases, requiring specific R3trans versions for correct import processes. The Note advises using the latest R3trans versions corresponding to the kernel releases to ensure successful translocations of features, package definitions, and function modules across different versions.
