How to create Package and TR in SAP System

Before starting any development, it is mandatory to have a package and TR assigned to your user id so that you can neatly collect all your changes in the TR and transport it without any errors. One should avoid collecting objects in the local package unless necessary.

Below are the steps outlined to create a package and a TR in SAP system. You can also check my video below-

Package or Development Class (t-code: SE80) (Role: SAP BASIS)

Step 1: Logon to SAP system (R/3 or BW system)

Step 2: Create Package

Enter t-code: SE80 (Object Navigator)

Select ‘Edit Object’

Select ‘Enhanced Options’ radio button. Then go to ‘Packages’ tab.

Package: Give as ‘ZPACK_SAMPLE’

Note: In SAP system, all customer defined objects will be prefixed with ‘Z’ or ‘Y’

Select ‘Create’ icon

Short Description: ‘Sample Package’

Software component: Home (Customer Development)

Package type: Select “Development package’

Select Save.

Request or transport request (TR) or workbench request (WR): XXXK9NNNNN

where, XXX is System ID

K is Customer Development

9NNNNN is a six digit integer number prefixed with digit 9, and maintained by system.

Every request is assigned with a task number.

Task number always follows request number.

TR (e.g. ER7K900002)

Task No: ER7K900003

Every Task is assigned with objects.

(Tables, programs, DTPs, Infopackages, Process chain Variants, t-codes, function modules etc.)

Note: To view the task number and its objects, Go to tcode SE09 or SE10 and drill down your request – task.

To create a new request: Select ‘Create Request’. Give a short description ‘Sample Request’

and select ‘Save’

Request created: ER7K900007

To use existing own requests

Select ‘Own Requests’

Double click on the required request

Select Continue. Press Save. Then F3, F3.

Result: A package is created and is assigned with a request
