• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GG588 - You can only save or delete after including the tables in a correction ?

  The SAP error message GG588 indicates that you are trying to save or delete a correction request without including the necessary tables. This typically occurs in the context of transport requests or correction orders in the SAP system, particularly when working with the ABAP Workbench or other development environments.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  You attempt to save or delete a transport request or correction order that does not have any objects (like tables, programs, or other development objects) included in it.
  The system requires that at least one object be included in the correction request before it can be saved or deleted.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the GG588 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Include Objects: 
  
  Open the correction request or transport request in the SAP system.
  Ensure that you have included the necessary objects (like tables, programs, etc.) in the request. You can do this by using the "Include Objects" option in the transport request.
  If you are working with a specific table, make sure to include it properly.
  
  
  
  Check Object Status:
  
  Verify that the objects you are trying to include are not already included in another transport request. If they are, you may need to either release that request or create a new one.
  
  
  
  Save Changes:
  
  After including the necessary objects, try saving the correction request again. This should allow you to save or delete the request without encountering the error.
  
  
  
  Delete Request:
  
  If your intention is to delete the request, ensure that it is empty or that you have the necessary authorizations to delete it. If it contains objects, you may need to remove them first.
