• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SODQ164 - Status check/correction for open composite requests ?

  The SAP error message SODQ164, which states "Status check/correction for open composite requests," typically occurs in the context of SAP's data transport and change management processes, particularly when dealing with composite requests in the Transport Management System (TMS) or during data transport operations.
  Cause:
  The error usually arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Incomplete or Failed Transport Requests: The composite request may contain one or more transport requests that have not been fully processed or have encountered errors.
  Lock Issues: There may be locks on the transport requests that prevent them from being processed.
  Inconsistent Status: The status of the transport requests within the composite request may be inconsistent, leading to issues when trying to check or correct them.
  Missing Dependencies: The composite request may depend on other requests that are not available or have not been released.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the SODQ164 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Transport Request Status:
  
  Use transaction code SE09 or SE10 to check the status of the transport requests included in the composite request.
  Look for any requests that are in a "modification" or "error" state.
  
  
  
  Release or Correct Transport Requests:
  
  If you find any transport requests that are not released, release them.
  If there are errors, correct them and re-attempt the transport.
  
  
  
  Check for Locks:
  
  Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the transport requests. If you find locks that are no longer needed, you can delete them (ensure you have the necessary authorizations).
  
  
  
  Use Transport Organizer:
  
  In the Transport Organizer, you can check the details of the composite request and its individual requests. Ensure that all requests are in a consistent state.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the Composite Request:
  
  After addressing any issues with the individual requests, try to reprocess the composite request.
  
  
  
  Consult Logs:
  
  Check the transport logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context on the issue.
