• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TEM_MESSAGES_AL108 - Only the newest version &1 can be transferred ?

  The SAP error message TEM_MESSAGES_AL108 with the description "Only the newest version &1 can be transferred" typically occurs in the context of SAP's Transport Management System (TMS) or when dealing with transport requests. This error indicates that there is an attempt to transfer an older version of an object when only the latest version is allowed.
  Cause:
  
  Versioning Issue: The error arises when there are multiple versions of an object (like a transport request or a development object) in the system, and the system is configured to only allow the latest version to be transferred.
  Transport Request Conflicts: If a transport request is trying to include an object that has been modified and a newer version exists, the system will prevent the transfer of the older version.
  Incorrect Object Selection: Sometimes, the user may inadvertently select an older version of an object for transport.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Object Versions: Verify the versions of the object you are trying to transport. You can do this by checking the object in the relevant transaction (e.g., SE80 for development objects).
  Use the Latest Version: Ensure that you are selecting the latest version of the object for transport. If you are using a transport request, make sure it includes the latest changes.
  Adjust Transport Request: If you are working with a transport request, you may need to adjust it to include the latest version of the object. You can do this by:
  
  Opening the transport request in SE09 or SE10.
  Checking the objects included in the request and ensuring they are the latest versions.
  
  
  Release the Transport Request: If the transport request is not released, consider releasing it after ensuring it contains the correct versions of the objects.
  Consult Documentation: If the issue persists, refer to SAP documentation or support for specific guidance related to your version of SAP.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes related to transport management and versioning issues. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions to common problems.
  Transport Management System (TMS): Familiarize yourself with TMS and how it handles transport requests and object versions.
  Development Guidelines: Follow best practices for development and transport management to minimize versioning issues, such as regularly releasing transport requests and maintaining clear version control.
  
  If the problem continues after trying these solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis team or reach out to SAP support for further assistance.
