• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message OT015 - Insertion of table &1 failed; package &2 already contained therein ?

  The SAP error message OT015 indicates that there is an issue with the insertion of a table into a package because the package already contains that table. This typically occurs during the transport of objects in SAP, particularly when dealing with ABAP development objects.
  Cause:
  The error arises when you attempt to insert a table (or other object) into a transport package that already contains that same table. This can happen due to:
  
  Duplicate Entries: The table is already included in the transport request or package.
  Incorrect Transport Request: You might be trying to add an object to a transport request that is not intended for that object.
  Development Environment Issues: Sometimes, inconsistencies in the development environment can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the OT015 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Transport Request:
  
  Verify if the table is already included in the transport request. You can do this by checking the contents of the transport request in the Transport Organizer (transaction SE09 or SE10).
  
  
  
  Remove Duplicate Entries:
  
  If the table is already in the transport request, you do not need to add it again. You can proceed with the transport without including it again.
  
  
  
  Use a Different Transport Request:
  
  If you need to make changes to the table and transport those changes, consider using a different transport request that does not already contain the table.
  
  
  
  Check Package Assignment:
  
  Ensure that the package assignment for the table is correct. If the table is assigned to a different package, you may need to adjust the package assignment.
  
  
  
  Consult with Colleagues:
  
  If you are working in a team, check with your colleagues to see if someone else has already included the table in a transport request.
  
  
  
  Transport Organizer:
  
  Use the Transport Organizer to manage your transport requests effectively and avoid such conflicts.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: SE09 (Transport Organizer), SE10 (Transport Organizer for Workbench Requests).
  Transport Management System (TMS): Understanding how TMS works can help in managing transport requests and avoiding conflicts.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues related to transport errors.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, you may need to consult with your SAP Basis team or refer to SAP support for further assistance.
