  The SAP error message RS_B4HANA_TRANSFER214: Name of object not specified typically occurs in the context of data transfer processes, particularly when working with SAP BW/4HANA or related data extraction and loading scenarios. This error indicates that a required object name (such as a data source, InfoObject, or other relevant entity) has not been specified in the configuration or during the execution of a data transfer.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Object Name: The most common cause is that the configuration for the data transfer process is incomplete, and an object name that is required for the operation has not been provided.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be an issue with the configuration of the data source or the data transfer process itself, leading to the system not being able to identify the necessary objects.
  Transport Issues: If the configuration was transported from one system to another, there might be missing objects or dependencies that were not included in the transport.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user executing the process may not have the necessary authorizations to access the specified objects, leading to the error.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration of the data transfer process. Ensure that all required fields, especially the object names, are correctly filled in.
  Validate Object Names: Make sure that the object names (like InfoProviders, DataSources, etc.) are correctly specified and exist in the system.
  Review Transport Requests: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport request to ensure that all necessary objects were included and correctly transported.
  Authorization Check: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the objects involved in the data transfer process.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider using debugging tools to trace the execution of the data transfer process and identify where the object name is expected but not provided.
