• Message number: 018

• Message text: Application TMP cannot be deployed

What causes this issue?

You have tried to deploy objects related with the application TMP. This
is by definition not possible.
TMP is a predefined application in BRFplus. The TMP application object
is automatically created in a system if it doesn't already exist. The
purpose of this application is to provide a sandbox environment where
you can try out things and play around with the objects provided by
BRFplus. It is by intention that all of the objects created in
application TMP will not be transported or deployed through the system
landscape. Moreover, objects contained in application TMP will be
automatically deleted by the system on a regular schedule to underline
the experimental character of this special application.

System Response

The objects cannot be deployed.

How to fix this error?

To deploy BRFplus objects that are meant for productive use, use a
different application other than TMP.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
