Symptom
There is a requirement to confirm whether the Configuration Transport Center (CTC) can be used during the release phase to transport data from a preview environment to a production environment when both instances are on different release versions.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
Resolution
In general, there are no restrictions on using the Configuration Transport Center (CTC) during the preview upgrade period. It can be used during the release phase, even when the source and target instances are on different release versions.
An exception applies to specific MDF objects that may not be compatible. These incompatibilities can be identified during the bundle validation step.
