• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_TRANSPORT313 - BRF+: &1 objects were already discarded with a higher timestamp ?

  The SAP error message FDT_TRANSPORT313 related to BRF+ (Business Rule Framework plus) indicates that certain objects were discarded because they had a higher timestamp than the ones being transported. This typically occurs during the transport of BRF+ objects between different SAP systems (e.g., from development to quality assurance or production).
  Cause:
  
  Timestamp Conflict: The error arises when you attempt to transport BRF+ objects that have a timestamp lower than those already present in the target system. The system prevents overwriting newer objects to maintain data integrity.
  Concurrent Changes: If changes were made to the BRF+ objects in the target system after the last transport, those changes will have a newer timestamp, leading to this error when you try to transport older versions.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Timestamps: Review the timestamps of the BRF+ objects in both the source and target systems. You can do this by checking the change logs or using transaction codes like BRF+ or SE80.
  Update Objects: If the objects in the target system are indeed newer, you may need to either:
  
  Manually Update: Make the necessary changes in the target system to align with the source system.
  Re-transport: If the changes in the target system are not needed, you can delete or adjust the objects in the target system to allow the transport to proceed.
  
  
  Use Transport Organizer: Use the Transport Organizer (transaction SE09 or SE10) to manage your transports and check for any inconsistencies.
  Adjust Transport Request: If you are sure that the objects in the source system are the correct versions, you can create a new transport request that includes the updated objects and try transporting again.
  
  Related Information:
  
  BRF+ Documentation: Familiarize yourself with the BRF+ documentation to understand how object versions and timestamps work.
  Transport Management: Review SAP's transport management documentation to understand best practices for transporting objects between systems.
  Change Management: Implement a change management process to minimize conflicts and ensure that all changes are documented and communicated across teams.
  
  Additional Tips:
  
  Always perform transports during maintenance windows to minimize the risk of conflicts.
  Consider using version control for your BRF+ rules to keep track of changes and facilitate easier rollbacks if necessary.
  Regularly synchronize your development and production environments to avoid discrepancies that can lead to such errors. 
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the FDT_TRANSPORT313 error and successfully manage your BRF+ object transports.
