• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ECATT153 - Local object &1 is not transportable ?

  The SAP error message ECATT153 indicates that a local object (such as a test script or a configuration) is not transportable. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's eCATT (extended Computer Aided Test Tool), which is used for automated testing.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the object you are trying to transport is defined as a "local object." In SAP, local objects are typically created in the development environment and are not intended to be transported to other systems (like quality assurance or production). Local objects are usually prefixed with a dollar sign ($) or asterisk (*), indicating that they are not transportable.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Change Object Type: If you need the object to be transportable, you should create it as a "development object" instead of a local object. This usually involves creating the object in a transportable package rather than in a local package.
  
  
  Create a Transportable Package:
  
  Go to transaction SE80 (Object Navigator).
  Create a new package (if you don't have one) that is transportable.
  Assign the object to this package.
  
  
  
  Modify the Object: If the object is already created as a local object, you may need to recreate it in the transportable package.
  
  
  Check Transport Settings: Ensure that your transport settings are correctly configured in your SAP system. You may need to consult with your SAP Basis team if you are unsure about the transport configuration.
  
  
  Use Transport Organizer: Use transaction SE09 or SE10 to manage your transport requests and ensure that the objects you want to transport are included in the correct transport request.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Local vs. Transportable Objects: Understanding the difference between local and transportable objects is crucial in SAP development. Local objects are typically used for testing or temporary changes, while transportable objects are meant for production use.
  eCATT Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for eCATT for more details on how to create and manage test scripts and other related objects.
  Transport Management System (TMS): Familiarize yourself with TMS in SAP, as it plays a critical role in managing transports across different environments.
