• Key Concepts: 
  A data container is a feature of the SAP BC-CTS Change & Transport System (CTS) that allows users to store and transport data between different SAP systems. It is a secure, isolated environment that stores all the necessary data for a particular task or project. The data container is used to ensure that the data is not corrupted or lost during the transport process. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the data container, users must first create a transport request in the CTS. This request will contain all the necessary information about the task or project, such as the source and target systems, the objects to be transported, and any additional parameters. Once the request is created, users can then create a data container for it. The data container will contain all the necessary data for the task or project, including any changes made to objects in the source system. 
  
  Once the data container is created, users can then transport it to the target system. The CTS will then compare the contents of the data container with those of the target system and apply any changes necessary to ensure that both systems are in sync. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a transport request, make sure to include all relevant information about the task or project. This will ensure that all necessary data is included in the data container and that it can be successfully transported to the target system. Additionally, make sure to check that all objects in both systems are in sync before transporting the data container. This will help prevent any errors or inconsistencies from occurring during transport.
