  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message STOBJ049 - Object & & is a local object and was not entered in the transport ?

    The SAP error message STOBJ049 indicates that a local object (an object that is not intended for transport) is being referenced in a way that requires it to be included in a transport request. This typically occurs when you try to transport a development object that has been created or modified in a local development environment, but it has not been assigned to a transport request.

    Cause:

    1. Local Object: The object in question is marked as a local object (usually indicated by a name starting with a $ or *), meaning it is not intended to be transported to other systems.
    2. Transport Request: You are attempting to include this local object in a transport request, which is not allowed since local objects are not meant to be moved between systems.
    3. Development Environment: The object was created or modified in a development environment without being assigned to a transport request.

    Solution:

    1. Check Object Type: Verify the type of the object you are trying to transport. If it is a local object, you will need to decide whether it should be converted to a transportable object.
    2. Create a Transport Request: If the object should be transportable, you can create a transport request and then reassign the object to this request. This can usually be done by:
      • Opening the object in the relevant transaction (e.g., SE80 for development objects).
      • Choosing the option to "Change" or "Transport" the object.
      • Assigning it to a transport request.
    3. Convert Local Object: If the object is indeed meant to be transportable, you can convert it from a local object to a transportable object by:
      • Using the transaction SE80 or SE11 (for database objects) to change the object type.
      • Saving the changes and assigning it to a transport request.
    4. Delete or Ignore: If the object is not needed in the transport, you can choose to ignore it or delete it if it is not required.

    Related Information:

    • Local Objects: Local objects are typically used for testing or temporary changes and are not meant to be moved to production environments.
    • Transport Management System (TMS): Understanding how the TMS works in SAP can help in managing transport requests effectively.
    • Development Guidelines: Follow best practices for development in SAP, ensuring that all changes are properly documented and assigned to transport requests to avoid such issues in the future.

    If you continue to face issues, consider consulting with your SAP Basis team or referring to SAP documentation for more detailed guidance on transport management.
