• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KE0C165 - Enter at least one transport request ?

  The SAP error message KE0C165 "Enter at least one transport request" typically occurs in the context of transport management within SAP, particularly when you are trying to transport changes related to controlling (CO) objects or other configuration settings. This error indicates that the system requires at least one transport request to be specified before proceeding with the operation.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the absence of a transport request in the relevant field when you are trying to save or transport changes. This can happen in various scenarios, such as:
  
  You are trying to release or transport a configuration change without associating it with a transport request.
  The transport request field is left blank, either due to oversight or because the changes were made in a development environment without creating a transport request.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the KE0C165 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Create a Transport Request:
  
  If you haven't already created a transport request, you need to do so. You can create a transport request using transaction code SE09 or SE10.
  Make sure to include the changes you want to transport in the request.
  
  
  
  Assign Changes to the Transport Request:
  
  If you have made changes in the system, ensure that these changes are assigned to the transport request. You can do this by using the "Include in Transport" option when saving your changes.
  
  
  
  Enter the Transport Request:
  
  When prompted for a transport request in the relevant transaction, enter the transport request number that you created or assigned your changes to.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Request Status:
  
  Ensure that the transport request is in the correct status (e.g., "Modifiable" or "Released") and that it is not locked or in a state that would prevent it from being used.
  
  
  
  Retry the Operation:
  
  After ensuring that a transport request is properly created and assigned, retry the operation that triggered the error.
