Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Non-Existent Transport Request: The transport request you are trying to access or use does not exist in the system.
  Ownership Issue: The transport request exists, but it is not owned by the user trying to access it. This can happen if the request was created by another user or in a different client.
  Transport Request Status: The transport request may be in a status that does not allow it to be used (e.g., it might be released or locked).
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access or modify the transport request.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Verify Transport Request:
  
  Check if the transport request number is correct and exists in the system. You can do this using transaction code SE09 or SE10.
  Ensure that the transport request is in the correct status (e.g., not released or locked).
  
  
  
  Check Ownership:
  
  Confirm that the transport request is owned by the user who is trying to access it. If it is owned by another user, you may need to contact that user or a system administrator to gain access.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to work with transport requests. This may involve checking roles and authorizations in transaction PFCG.
  
  
  
  Use the Correct Client:
