  The SAP error message TK232 ("Entry &1 &2 &3 not permitted in object directory") typically occurs when there is an issue with the object directory in the SAP system. This error can arise in various contexts, such as when trying to access or modify certain objects (like transport requests, programs, or other repository objects) that are not allowed due to authorization issues or configuration settings.
  Causes:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access or modify the specified object.
  Object Directory Configuration: The object may not be correctly configured in the object directory, or it may not exist in the expected location.
