What is the difference between task and change request? Is it possible to release a change request..

Answer / vivek

First we will create the Request under Request each user
will have the one task, Change Request means nothing but a
change request represents a list containing objects to be
transported to the production environment. The change
request as such contains the purpose of the change, the
change type, the request category and the target system.
Change requests are commonly referred to as transports in
SAP terminology. One important thing to note is that a
change request may consist of more than one change tasks.
At the time of creation of a change request, SAP R/3
assigns a change request number to the transport request.
In case user is using the Workbench Organizer in SAP, the
target system and the type of request are assigned
automatically to the change request. There are two types of
change request categories in SAP Workbench organizer.
The "SYST" category contains ABAP development object and
general customizing. The "CUST" category contains objects
relevant to client specific cutomizing.
Lastly, when changes have been made, and the change tasks
have been released, the change request can be released.
Transportable change requests are released to the transport
system. The transport system exports the objects and keeps
a log of all transports. To display change requests, user
can choose the following menu or simply go to transaction
SE09.

NO,You cant release the change request with releasing task.
