  The SAP error message SWF_FLEX_BRF020 indicates that there is no transport request expected for a specific package in the Business Rule Framework (BRF). This typically occurs when you are trying to transport BRF objects that are not configured to be transported or when the system is not set up to handle transport requests for that particular package.
  Cause:
  
  Package Configuration: The package associated with the BRF objects may not be configured to allow transport requests. This can happen if the package is set to "local" or if it is not properly defined in the system.
  Transport Layer Issues: There may be issues with the transport layer configuration in your SAP system, which can prevent the creation of transport requests for certain packages.

  Review Transport Layer Configuration:
