• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /IBX/RBD_IPX122 - Transport request &1 has an incorrect system or naming convention ?

  The SAP error message /IBX/RBD_IPX122 indicates that there is an issue with a transport request in the SAP system. Specifically, the error states that the transport request has an incorrect system or naming convention. This can occur in various scenarios, particularly when dealing with transport management and system landscape configurations.
  Cause:
  
  
  Incorrect Naming Convention: The transport request may not adhere to the naming conventions defined in your SAP system. For example, transport requests typically follow a specific format (e.g., K123456 for customizing requests).
  
  
  System Configuration Issues: The transport request may be pointing to a system that is not correctly configured in the Transport Management System (TMS). This could happen if the system was not properly added to the transport domain or if there are inconsistencies in the system landscape.
  
  
  Transport Layer Issues: The transport layer associated with the transport request may not be correctly set up or may not match the target system.
  
  
  Transport Directory Issues: There may be issues with the transport directory or the transport files themselves, such as missing or corrupted files.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Naming Convention: Verify that the transport request follows the correct naming convention. If it does not, you may need to create a new transport request that adheres to the naming rules.
  
  
  Review TMS Configuration: Ensure that the system is correctly configured in the Transport Management System. You can do this by:
  
  Accessing the TMS configuration (transaction STMS).
  Checking the transport routes and ensuring that the system is included in the transport domain.
  
  
  
  Validate Transport Layer: Check the transport layer associated with the transport request. Ensure that it is correctly defined and that it matches the target system.
  
  
  Check Transport Directory: Look into the transport directory on the file system to ensure that all necessary transport files are present and not corrupted. You can also check the transport logs for any additional error messages that might provide more context.
  
  
  Recreate Transport Request: If the transport request is indeed corrupted or incorrectly configured, consider recreating it. This may involve re-transporting the objects or changes that were included in the original request.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  
  
  Related Information:

  Transport Management System (TMS): Understanding how TMS works and how to configure it properly is crucial for managing transports effectively.
  SAP Notes: Regularly check for updates and notes from SAP that may provide fixes or workarounds for known issues related to transport requests.
