  The SAP error message SOI107, which states "TADIR entry does not exist," typically indicates that the system is unable to find a specific entry in the TADIR table. The TADIR table is a key component in SAP that stores information about the development objects in the system, including their transport status and other metadata.
  Cause:
  
  Missing TADIR Entry: The most common cause of this error is that the TADIR entry for the object you are trying to access or transport does not exist. This can happen if the object was deleted or if it was never created in the first place.
  Transport Directory Issues: If there are issues with the transport directory or if the transport request is not properly configured, it may lead to this error.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the TADIR entries, leading to this error message.
  System Configuration Issues: If the system is not properly configured or if there are inconsistencies in the transport landscape, it may result in this error.

  Check Transport Requests: Ensure that the transport request is correctly configured and that all necessary objects are included in the request. You can use transaction SE09 or SE10 to manage transport requests.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the TADIR entries. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify this.
