• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TK370 - Namespace conflict between object &1 and target package &3 ?

  The SAP error message TK370 indicates a namespace conflict between an object (like a program, function module, or class) and a target package. This typically occurs when you are trying to transport or move an object from one package to another, and there is a naming conflict due to the namespace rules in SAP.
  Cause:
  
  Namespace Conflict: The object you are trying to transport is in a package that has a namespace that conflicts with the target package. This can happen if both packages are trying to use the same name for an object.
  Package Assignment: The object may be assigned to a package that is not compatible with the target package due to naming conventions or restrictions.
  Transport Layer Issues: Sometimes, the transport layer settings can lead to conflicts if the object is not properly assigned to the correct transport layer.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Object Assignment: Verify the package assignment of the object you are trying to transport. Ensure that it is assigned to the correct package and that there are no naming conflicts.
  Rename the Object: If there is a naming conflict, consider renaming the object in the source package to avoid the conflict with the target package.
  Change Target Package: If possible, change the target package to one that does not conflict with the object’s namespace.
  Review Transport Layer: Check the transport layer settings to ensure that they are correctly configured and that the object is assigned to the appropriate transport layer.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to namespace conflicts for additional guidance and best practices.
  
  Related Information:
