  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TK136 - Specify a request ?

    The SAP error message TK136 "Specify a request" typically occurs in the context of transport requests in the SAP system. This error indicates that the system expects you to specify a transport request, but none has been provided or the provided request is not valid.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Transport Request: You may not have selected a transport request when trying to perform an action that requires one, such as releasing or modifying objects.
    2. Invalid Request: The transport request you are trying to use may not exist, may have been deleted, or may not be valid for the action you are attempting.

    Solution:
