• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message STOBJ050 - Index &-& is local and was not entered in the transport ?

  The SAP error message STOBJ050 indicates that an index (in this case, an index identified by the name &-&) is local to the development system and has not been included in the transport request. This typically occurs when you are trying to transport database objects, such as indexes, from one SAP system to another (e.g., from a development system to a quality assurance or production system), but the index has not been properly included in the transport request.
  Cause:
  
  Local Index Creation: The index was created locally in the development system and was not assigned to a transport request.
  Transport Request Not Released: The transport request that should contain the index has not been released.
  Index Not Included: The index was not included in the transport request when it was created or modified.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the STOBJ050 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Transport Request:
  
  Go to the transaction code SE01 or SE09 to check the transport requests.
  Ensure that the transport request that should contain the index is released.
  
  
  
  Include the Index in a Transport Request:
  
  If the index is not included in any transport request, you can manually include it:
  
  Go to transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary).
  Navigate to the relevant database table or view.
  Check the indexes associated with the table.
  If the index is not in a transport request, you can create a new transport request and include the index.
  Use the "Transport" button to add the index to the transport request.
  
  
  
  
  
  Recreate the Index:
  
  If the index is not critical and can be recreated, you can drop the index in the development system and recreate it in the target system after transport.
  
  
  
  Transport the Index:
  
  After including the index in the transport request, release the transport request and import it into the target system.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that any dependent objects (like tables or views) are also included in the transport request.
