• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SMB/TRANSP_INFRA655 - Current Client is Lifecycle Client ?

  The SAP error message /SMB/TRANSP_INFRA655 Current Client is Lifecycle Client typically indicates that you are trying to perform a transport operation in a client that is designated as a "lifecycle client." Lifecycle clients are special clients in SAP systems that are used for specific purposes, such as testing or development, and they may have restrictions on certain operations, including transport activities.
  Cause:
  
  Lifecycle Client: The client you are working in is set up as a lifecycle client, which restricts certain operations, including transports.
  Client Configuration: The client may be configured to prevent transport activities to ensure that the integrity of the lifecycle processes is maintained.
  User Permissions: The user may not have the necessary permissions to perform transport operations in the lifecycle client.
  
  Solution:
  
  Switch to a Different Client: If you need to perform transport operations, switch to a different client that is not designated as a lifecycle client. Typically, this would be a development or quality assurance client.
  Check Client Settings: Review the client settings in transaction SCC4 to confirm the status of the client. If you have the necessary authorizations, you can change the client type if appropriate.
  User Permissions: Ensure that your user account has the necessary permissions to perform transport operations in the intended client. You may need to contact your SAP Basis administrator for assistance.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis team to understand the implications of working in a lifecycle client and the best practices for transport management.
