  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TK001 - Object locked in request &2, however request cannot be used ?

    The SAP error message "TK001 Object locked in request &2, however request cannot be used" typically occurs during transport operations when an object is locked in a transport request, but the request itself cannot be used for some reason. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to release a transport request or when attempting to import a transport request into another system.

    Causes:

    1. Object Locking: The object you are trying to transport is currently locked by another user or process. This can happen if someone else is editing the object or if there is a pending operation on it.
    2. Transport Request Issues: The transport request may be in a state that prevents it from being used, such as being incomplete or having errors.
    3. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to release or use the transport request.
    4. System Configuration: There may be configuration issues in the transport management system (TMS) that are causing the request to be unusable.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Object Lock: Use transaction code SM12 to check for locks on the object. If you find a lock that is not needed, you can delete it (if you have the necessary authorizations).
    2. Review Transport Request: Check the status of the transport request using transaction code SE09 or SE10. Ensure that the request is complete and does not have any errors.
    3. Release the Request: If the request is in a modifiable state, try to release it again. Make sure that all objects are correctly included in the request.
    4. Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to work with transport requests. You may need to consult with your SAP security team.
    5. Consult Transport Logs: Review the transport logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context on why the request cannot be used.
    6. Contact Basis Team: If the issue persists, it may be necessary to involve your SAP Basis team to investigate further, especially if there are underlying system issues.
