  • Message type: E = Error

  • Message class: TK - Transport Organizer

  • Message number: 359

  • Message text: No valid license exists for namespace &1

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    There is no valid license for the namespace &V1& in this SAP System

    System Response

    You cannot edit objects from the namespace &V1& in this namespace.

    How to fix this error?

    Let the system administrator check the change licenses of the namespace
    &V1& in your SAP System.
    Maintain the namespaces using: Transaction SE09 -> <LS>Transport
    Organizer Tools</> -> <LS>Administration</> -> <LS>Display/Change
    Namespaces
    </>.
    You can distinguish the following cases:
    The namespace begins with "/0SAP":
    Make sure that the namespace role is "C" (target) and the indicators
    "SSCR Popup" and "SAP Standard" are activated. The license fields
    remain empty.
    You did not create the namespace yourself. Instead the owner of the
    namespace is SAP AG or another software manufacturer:
    Make sure that the namespace role is "C" (recipient). In the field
    <LS>repair license</> you either have to enter the valid license or
    activate the indicator "SSCR Popup". Contact the owner of the
    namespace, who can tell you how to proceed and the name of the valid
    repair license.
    You are the owner of the namespace:
    In this case proceed according to the documentation on applying for and
    setting up namespaces. The documentation describes how you obtain the
    valid development and repair license.
