• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWF_FLEX_CDS021 - No transport request given ?

  The SAP error message SWF_FLEX_CDS021, which states "No transport request given," typically occurs in the context of the SAP Workflow or when working with Core Data Services (CDS) views. This error indicates that a transport request is not assigned to the object you are trying to activate or transport.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Transport Request: The object (like a CDS view or workflow) you are trying to activate or transport does not have an associated transport request. This can happen if the object was created in a development environment without being assigned to a transport request.
  Incorrect Configuration: Sometimes, the system configuration may not allow for the automatic assignment of transport requests.
  Development Environment Issues: If you are working in a non-transportable environment (like a local development environment), you may encounter this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Assign a Transport Request:
  
  Go to the object (e.g., CDS view or workflow) in the SAP GUI.
  Check if there is an option to assign a transport request. If not, you may need to create a new transport request.
  Use transaction code SE09 or SE10 to create a transport request and then assign your object to it.
  
  
  
  Activate the Object:
  
  After assigning the transport request, try to activate the object again. This should resolve the error.
  
  
  
  Check System Settings:
  
  Ensure that your system settings allow for the automatic assignment of transport requests. This can be checked in the transport management settings.
  
  
  
  Use the Correct Development Environment:
  
  Make sure you are working in a proper development environment that supports transport requests. If you are in a local environment, consider moving to a proper development system.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If the issue persists, refer to SAP documentation or support for more specific guidance related to your version of SAP and the specific object you are working with.
