• Key Concepts: 
  Cross-transport is a feature of the SAP Change & Transport System (CTS) that allows for the transport of objects between different SAP systems. It enables the transfer of objects from one system to another, such as from a development system to a production system. This feature is especially useful when multiple systems are involved in the development process.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use cross-transport, you must first configure the CTS in both the source and target systems. Once this is done, you can use the CTS to transport objects from one system to another. To do this, you must first create a transport request in the source system and then release it. The transport request will then be transferred to the target system, where it can be imported and activated.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using cross-transport, it is important to ensure that all objects in the transport request are compatible with both the source and target systems. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all objects in the transport request are up-to-date and have not been modified since they were last exported from the source system.
