Is there a way to access the source code of a SAP transport file without a SAP system? I have a transport file containing an ABAP report which source code I would like to look at. Not run. Unfortunately, I don't have access to an SAP system at the moment. The SAP NetWeaver ABAP Server Trial Version is not available for download anymore. I thought I could have used this trial server to view the code.

There is no way unless you are an organic binary to text decoder and you know the SAP's binary format that is used.

However here is an interesting discussion on the topic. The guy mentions R3Trans program which I however could not find anywhere. I guess it is a part of an SAP application server installation.

    you should be able to download R3trans from the marketplace. Don't know if it needs any additional libraries, but one could just grab the current kernel package and give it a try. – Dirk Trilsbeek Apr 04 '16 at 11:09

    As Dirk Trilsbeek writes, there are indeed `CAR` and `SAR` archives with R3Trans in the Service Marketplace to download. – Jagger Apr 04 '16 at 11:30

As Jagger indication, R3Trans is indeed a solution. All executable/complement software can be found from Marketplace

  1. SAPCAR binary extractor to "unzip" SAR/CAR archive
  2. The SAR archive containing the os depending R3Trans executable.
  3. Recent version of R3Trans requires 3 Unicode libraries (.dll on Windows, .so on Linux) that could be obtained from NWRFCSDK, Sapgui installation or Kernel setup: icuuc50.dll, icudt50.dll, icuin50.dll
