Pusher Process Definitions for SAP CTS+ Integration
The pusher process definition is used to forward the objects to the SAP CTS+ transport domain controller and initiates the transport request. By default, it creates a new request as the Request number parameter does not have a default value; for CTS this means that the default request of the user is not used. You use an existing request (the user's default request) by specifying default in the Request number parameter; alternatively, you specify the request number. The process will lookup requests for the user specified on the XBP tab of the SAP System for the client you selected in the Client field and use the default for that SAP system if the Client field is empty. You do not fill the Request number field if you want a new request created; this, however, assumes that you use either the Smart or Create transport request strategy ( WBO_GET_REQ_STRATEGY ).
The transport will fail in the following situations:
- You specified
Defaultin the Request number field and the user as defined on the SAP system does not have a default request - You specify an invalid Request number
- You use Tagged transport request strategy and you do not fill the Request number field
Note that the request is released automatically by default as the Release request parameter has a default value of Yes. You can change the defaults in the process definition, however, you should duplicate it prior to customizing it as it will get overwritten if you import a CTS+ CAR file again.
tip
If you set the Queue and all mandatory parameters, you will not get the submit wizard and will be able to promote objects seamlessly via CTS+.
