  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CP166 - Not all data objects have been copied ?

    The SAP error message CP166 ("Not all data objects have been copied") typically occurs during the process of copying or transporting data objects, such as when you are trying to transport a request or a task in the SAP system. This error indicates that some of the data objects that were supposed to be copied did not get copied successfully.

    Causes:

    1. Missing Dependencies: The data objects you are trying to copy may have dependencies on other objects that are not included in the transport request.
    2. Inconsistent State: The source system may be in an inconsistent state, where some objects are not properly activated or are in a locked state.
    3. Transport Directory Issues: There may be issues with the transport directory or the transport management system (TMS) configuration.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user performing the transport may not have the necessary authorizations to copy all the required objects.
    5. Object Type Restrictions: Certain object types may have restrictions or specific requirements that prevent them from being copied.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Dependencies: Review the transport request to ensure that all dependent objects are included. You can use transaction SE01 or SE09 to analyze the transport request.
    2. Activate Objects: Ensure that all objects in the source system are activated and in a consistent state. You can check for any inactive objects using transaction SE80 or SE11.
    3. Review Transport Logs: Check the transport logs for any specific errors or warnings that may provide more context on what went wrong during the copy process.
    4. Authorization Check: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the transport. You can check this in transaction SU53 or by reviewing the user's roles and authorizations.
    5. Recreate Transport Request: If the transport request is corrupted or incomplete, consider recreating it and ensuring that all necessary objects are included.
    6. Consult SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error. You can search for notes in the SAP Support Portal.
