• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CFD_ABAP_MANAGED_FLD038 - Append structure &1 is not transportable. ?

  The SAP error message CFD_ABAP_MANAGED_FLD038 indicates that an append structure is not transportable. This typically occurs when you attempt to transport an append structure that has been created in a way that does not allow it to be included in a transport request. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Non-Transportable Append Structure: The append structure may have been created in a way that makes it non-transportable. This can happen if the append structure is associated with a table that is not transportable or if it is created in a local object (i.e., it is not assigned to a transport request).
  Local Object: If the append structure was created in a development environment without being assigned to a transport request, it will be treated as a local object and cannot be transported to other systems (e.g., from Development to Quality Assurance or Production).
  System Settings: Certain system settings or configurations may also prevent the append structure from being transportable.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Transport Request: Ensure that the append structure is created within a transport request. If it was created as a local object, you will need to create a transport request and move the object into it.
  
  Go to the Object Navigator (SE80) or Data Dictionary (SE11) and check the transport request associated with the append structure.
  
  
  Recreate the Append Structure: If the append structure is indeed a local object, you may need to delete it and recreate it while ensuring it is assigned to a transport request.
  Use Transport Organizer: Use the Transport Organizer (SE09 or SE10) to manage your transport requests and ensure that all objects are properly included.
  Check for Dependencies: Sometimes, the append structure may have dependencies on other objects that are also non-transportable. Ensure that all related objects are transportable.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to transport management and append structures for any specific guidelines or restrictions.
