  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ESH_IEF_MSG022 - Local objects (i.e. package $$TMP), cannot be transported ?

    The SAP error message ESH_IEF_MSG022 indicates that you are trying to transport local objects, specifically those in the package $$TMP. Local objects are typically temporary objects that are not intended for transport between different SAP systems. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, solution, and related information for this error:

    Cause:

    1. Local Objects: The package $$TMP is a temporary package used for development and testing purposes. Objects created in this package are not meant to be transported to other systems (e.g., from development to quality assurance or production).
    2. Transport Request: You may have inadvertently included local objects in a transport request, which is not allowed by SAP.

    Solution:

    1. Move Objects to a Proper Package:

      • Identify the local objects that you want to transport.
      • Move these objects to a proper development package (not $$TMP) that is transportable. You can do this by:
        • Opening the object in the relevant transaction (e.g., SE80 for programs, SE11 for database tables).
        • Changing the package assignment from $$TMP to a valid package.
    2. Create a Transport Request:

      • After moving the objects to a valid package, create a new transport request if necessary.
      • Add the objects to the transport request and release it for transport.
    3. Check Transport Settings:

      • Ensure that your transport settings are correctly configured to allow for the transport of the objects you are working with.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes related to transport issues for any specific guidance or updates.
    • Development Guidelines: Familiarize yourself with SAP's guidelines on development and transport management to avoid similar issues in the future.
    • Transport Organizer: Use transaction SE09 or SE10 to manage transport requests and check for any inconsistencies.

    Best Practices:

    • Always create new objects in a designated development package rather than in $$TMP.
    • Regularly review your development environment to ensure that no local objects are left in temporary packages.
    • Communicate with your team about the importance of using proper packages for development to avoid transport issues.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully transport your objects.
