• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DTINF187 - Ensure that no open transports for IRF exist before uploading Models ?

  The SAP error message DTINF187 indicates that there are open transport requests for Integration Repository (IRF) that need to be addressed before you can upload models. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Process Integration (PI) or SAP Process Orchestration (PO) when you are trying to upload or transport integration models.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the presence of open transport requests in the Integration Repository. When there are open transports, the system prevents further uploads to ensure data integrity and consistency. Open transports can occur if:
  
  A transport request has been created but not released.
  There are pending changes in the Integration Repository that have not been captured in a transport request.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the DTINF187 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Open Transport Requests:
  
  Go to the transaction code SE01 (Transport Organizer) or SE09 (Workbench Organizer).
  Look for any open transport requests related to the Integration Repository. You can filter by user or status to find relevant requests.
  
  
  
  Release or Close Transport Requests:
  
  If you find any open transport requests, you can either:
  
  Release them if they are complete and ready for transport.
  Delete them if they are no longer needed (ensure that this is acceptable in your change management process).
  
  
  
  
  
  Check for Pending Changes:
  
  In the Integration Repository, check if there are any pending changes that need to be captured in a transport request.
  If there are changes, create a new transport request to include those changes.
  
  
  
  Retry Uploading Models:
  
  Once all open transport requests are addressed, try uploading your models again.
