Excerpt I found that helped somewhat
You must perform the following steps after an upgrade, if you were already using the profile generator before the upgrade.
u2022 Choose steps 2A to 2C if you made a large number of modifications in transaction SU24 in the last release. Step 1 (Initial Filling of Customer Tables) should only be executed in transaction SU25 if you made no changes in transaction SU24 in the previous release. The system overwrites tables USOBT_C and USOBX_C (Customer u2013 or our custom objects) when it executes step 1, and the values that you maintained in the last release are lost. In steps 2A and 2B, a synchronization procedure is performed.
My question is about transporting in Step 3, exactly what does it transport, I believe these two are a given
USOBT_C
USOBX_C
but our BASIS person thinks these may go as well
PRGN_STAT
TCODE_MOD
Do we want to create a transport in DEV and move to QA/PROD, or just run the steps 2A to 2C manually in QA/PROD?
What is best practice? thanks
