Difference between workbench and customized request?

Both the Customizing and Workbench Requests are part of the change transporting mechanism in SAP. This means that the changes are moved to the next systems in the landscape using the transport requests.

Changes as part of the Technical activities are saved in the Workbench Request => WRICEF Development components.

Changes as part of the Functional Configuration are saved in the Customizing Request (because the functional consultant configures the SAP System as per the client’s requirements).

Difference between workbench and customized:

Customizing Requests:

 Change of customizing settings are recorded in “Customizing Requests”.

Customizing requests contain changes to “Client Depending Tables”.

When we release the requests, the current status of the recorded settings are
exported and can be transport to other SAP systems.

When we create a customizing request, the transport target system automatically
assigned by the transport layer configuration of SAP STMS system.

 

Workbench Requests:

 If going to change “ABAP workbench objects” then “Workbench Requests” recorded

by the SAP system.

Workbench requests contain changes to “Client Independent Tables” and related to the
Development tasks.

There are two type of workbench requests, one of is LOCAL and the other one is “TRANSPORTABLE”
