Message text: Local object is edited without a request
An ABAP Workbench object could not be added to a Transport Organizer
request for editing because when the correct request type for the
object was being determined, it was found to be a local object in this
system.
It belongs to a local package whose name begins with the character "$".
The internal name of the object to be edited is:
&V1& &V2& &V3&
Local objects are not edited in the Transport Organizer. They can be
edited without a request.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

TK481
- Local object is edited without a request ?The SAP error message TK481 ("Local object is edited without a request") typically occurs when you are trying to make changes to an object in the SAP system that is classified as a "local object." Local objects are temporary and are not assigned to a transport request, which means they cannot be transported to other systems (like from development to quality assurance or production).
Cause:
- Local Object Creation: The object you are trying to edit (like a program, function module, or class) was created as a local object (usually prefixed with
$TMP
), which means it is not associated with a transport request.- Editing Without Request: You are attempting to edit or save changes to this local object without having a transport request assigned to it.
Solution:
Create a Transport Request:
- If you want to make changes to an object and transport those changes to other environments, you need to create a transport request.
- To do this, you can use the transaction code SE09 or SE10 to create a new transport request.
- After creating the transport request, you can assign the object to this request.
Change the Object Type:
- If the object is not meant to be a local object, you can create a new object in the appropriate package and assign it to a transport request from the beginning.
Use Local Objects for Testing:
- If you are just testing or making temporary changes, you can continue to use local objects, but be aware that these changes will not be transportable.
Check Authorization:
- Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to create and assign transport requests.
