Change Sets
Use change sets to send customizations from one
Salesforce org to another. For example, you can create and test a new object in a sandbox
org, then send it to your production org using a change set. Change sets can only contain
modifications you can make through the Setup menu. For example, you can’t use a change set
to upload a list of contact records. Change sets contain information about the org. They
don’t contain data, such as records.

When you want to send customizations from your current org to another org, create an outbound change set. Once you send the change set, the receiving org sees it as an inbound change set.
Sending a change set between two orgs requires a deployment connection. Change sets can only be sent between orgs that are affiliated with a production org. For example, a production org and a sandbox, or two sandboxes created from the same org can send or receive change sets.
