• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /IWFND/CM_DESIGNTIME174 - Transport request not available and client is set to auto-record on ?

  The SAP error message /IWFND/CM_DESIGNTIME174 indicates that there is an issue with the transport request in the context of the SAP Gateway and OData services. Specifically, the error message states that a transport request is not available, and the client is set to auto-record.
  Cause:
  
  Transport Request Not Created: The error typically occurs when you are trying to activate or transport an OData service or related artifacts, but there is no transport request available for the changes you are trying to make.
  Auto-Recording Setting: If the client is set to auto-record, it means that any changes made in the development environment should automatically be recorded in a transport request. If this is not functioning correctly, it can lead to this error.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to create or access transport requests.
  System Configuration: There may be issues with the system configuration or transport landscape that prevent the creation of transport requests.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Transport Request: Ensure that a transport request is created and available. You can do this by going to transaction SE09 or SE10 to check the transport requests.
  Manual Transport Request Creation: If no transport request is available, you can manually create a transport request using transaction SE09 or SE10 and then try to activate the OData service again.
  Check Auto-Recording Settings: Verify the auto-recording settings in your client. You can check this in transaction SCC4 or by using the command /n/IWFND/CM_DESIGNTIME to see if the auto-recording is functioning as expected.
  User Authorizations: Ensure that your user has the necessary authorizations to create and manage transport requests. You may need to consult with your SAP Basis team for this.
  System Configuration: If the issue persists, check with your SAP Basis team to ensure that the transport system is correctly configured and that there are no underlying issues with the transport landscape.
