• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_CORE251 - Local object cannot be transported: No transport object should be set ?

  The SAP error message FDT_CORE251 indicates that a local object cannot be transported because it is not set up for transport. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Fiori Design Thinking (FDT) or when working with local objects in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  The error arises when you attempt to transport a local object (an object that is created in the development environment but not assigned to a transport request) to another system (like a quality assurance or production system). Local objects are usually created in the development environment without being assigned to a transport request, which means they are not intended to be moved to other environments.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Object Type: Ensure that the object you are trying to transport is indeed meant to be transported. Some objects are designed to remain local.
  
  
  Create a Transport Request:
  
  If the object is meant to be transported, you need to create a transport request for it.
  Go to the transaction code SE09 or SE10 to create a transport request.
  Assign the object to the transport request.
  
  
  
  Change Object Properties:
  
  If the object is a local object and you want to change its status, you may need to modify its properties to make it a transportable object.
  This can often be done in the object’s development environment by changing its attributes.
  
  
  
  Recreate the Object:
  
  If the object is not meant to be transported and you need a transportable version, consider recreating the object in a way that it is assigned to a transport request from the beginning.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the object type or its transportability, consult the SAP documentation or your system administrator for guidance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Local Objects: In SAP, local objects are typically prefixed with a Z or Y and are not intended for transport. They are often used for testing or temporary changes.
  Transport Management System (TMS): Familiarize yourself with the TMS in SAP, which manages the transport of objects between different environments.
  Development Guidelines: Follow best practices for development in SAP, including proper use of transport requests to ensure that changes are tracked and can be moved between environments.
