CTS Components

Change and transport organizer (CTO): it is a tool for managing, browsing and registering the changes on the repository and customizing objects. SE01 is the transaction with the new extended view.

Transport management system (TMS): used to setup transport routes in the SAP system landscape.

Transport Tools (R3trans and TP): used by SAP at operating system level to communicate with SAP and database.

TMS consists of 3 different Change and Transport System (CTS) components:

Change and transport organizer: This is used to manage, configure the changes in SAP repository and other objects. This provides you a central environment for development and configuration projects.

Transport management system (TMS): This is used to manage, control and copy development objects and for customization of settings across SAP systems in landscape using pre-defined transport routes configured with RFC Connections. This includes exporting the objects from one SAP system and importing to another target system.

Transport Tools: Tools are a part of SAP Kernel and are used to manage R3 trans and transport control program.

R3trans is known as SAP system transport which is used to transport the objects between different SAP systems. It is usually called for other transport control program, in particular from tp or by using SAP upgrade utilities.

Transport control program is used to support data and object transport between different systems running on different platforms and also on different database.

Transport domain controller

This is used to manage all TMS configuration details. Any changes to configuration settings are distributed across all systems. To set up the Domain controller, use transaction code — STMS

In case, the SAP system doesn’t have a Domain Controller, you will be prompted to create a new one. Transport domain includes the following activities

User creation TMSADM

RFC connection and request creation, TMSADM is used login to target system

DOMAIN.CFG file is created under user/sap/trans/bin directory which stores TMS configuration and is used by systems and domains for checking existing configurations.
