  The SAP error message SBDS228 "No logical transport object defined" typically occurs in the context of transport management, particularly when dealing with transport requests in the SAP system. This error indicates that the system is unable to find a logical transport object associated with the transport request you are trying to work with.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Transport Object: The transport request does not have any logical objects defined. This can happen if the transport request was created without any objects being added to it.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be issues with the transport configuration in the system, such as missing entries in the transport directory or incorrect settings in the transport management system (TMS).
  Transport Request Status: The transport request may be in a status that does not allow for the addition of logical objects (e.g., it may be released or already imported).

  Solutions:
  
  Check Transport Request: Verify that the transport request you are working with has logical objects defined. You can do this by checking the contents of the transport request in transaction SE09 or SE10.

  Review Transport Configuration: Ensure that the transport management system is correctly configured. Check the transport routes and the transport directory settings.
  Check User Authorizations: Make sure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and manage transport requests. This can be checked in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
