• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ESH_CU_TM020 - Package &1 does not allow transportation ?

  The SAP error message ESH_CU_TM020 indicates that a specific package (denoted as &1) does not allow transportation. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's Change and Transport System (CTS), where certain objects or packages are restricted from being transported between different systems (e.g., from development to quality assurance or production).
  Cause:
  
  Transport Settings: The package may have been configured to be non-transportable. This can happen if the package is set to "local" or if it has specific transport settings that prevent it from being included in transport requests.
  Development Class: The package might belong to a development class that is not transportable. Some packages are designed to be local to a specific system and are not intended to be moved.
  Authorization Issues: There may be authorization restrictions preventing the transport of the package.
  Object Type: Certain object types within the package may inherently not support transportation.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Package Settings: 
  
  Go to transaction SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE21 (Transport Organizer) and check the properties of the package. Ensure that the package is set to allow transportation.
  If you have the necessary authorizations, you can change the transport settings of the package.
  
  
  
  Review Development Class:
  
  If the package is part of a development class, check if the development class is set to be transportable. You can do this in transaction SE80 or SE21.
  
  
  
  Create a Transport Request:
  
  If the package is indeed transportable, ensure that you are creating a transport request correctly and that the objects you are trying to transport are included in the request.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific package or object type to understand any restrictions or guidelines regarding transportation.
