  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TG146 - -> & test and local objects found in the SAP name range ?

    The SAP error message TG146 indicates that there are test and local objects found in the SAP name range. This typically occurs when you are trying to transport objects that are not meant to be transported, such as local objects (which are usually created in the development environment and not intended for production) or test objects.

    Cause:

    1. Local Objects: These are objects that are created in the development environment and are not assigned to a transport request. They are usually prefixed with a specific character (like $ or @) and are meant for local development only.
    2. Test Objects: These are objects that are used for testing purposes and are not intended for production use. They may also be created without being assigned to a transport request.
    3. Transport Request Issues: If you are trying to transport a request that includes local or test objects, the system will raise this error to prevent unintended changes in the production environment.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Objects: Review the objects you are trying to transport. You can do this by checking the transport request in the Transport Organizer (transaction SE09 or SE10).
    2. Remove Local/Test Objects: If you find local or test objects in the transport request, you should remove them. You can do this by:
      • Opening the transport request in the Transport Organizer.
      • Identifying the local or test objects.
      • Removing them from the transport request.
    3. Create Transportable Versions: If you need to transport certain changes, ensure that you create transportable versions of the objects. This may involve creating a new object or modifying the existing one to be transportable.
    4. Use the Correct Naming Convention: Ensure that the objects you are creating follow the naming conventions that allow them to be transportable. Avoid using prefixes that indicate local or test objects.

    Related Information:

    • Transport Organizer (SE09/SE10): Use these transactions to manage transport requests and check the status of objects.
    • Naming Conventions: Familiarize yourself with SAP's naming conventions for objects to avoid creating local or test objects inadvertently.
    • Development Guidelines: Follow best practices and guidelines for development in SAP to ensure that objects are created in a way that they can be transported when needed.

    By addressing the presence of local and test objects in your transport request, you should be able to resolve the TG146 error and successfully transport your changes.
