  • Message class: TK - Transport Organizer

  • Message text: Use target system &1 for your request

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    Your system is set so that transportable change requests and customizing
    requests are transported to the system &V1&. However the
    request that you have edited &V2& has a different target system or no
    target system.

    System Response

    This message is a warning.

    How to fix this error?

    You can change the target system of your change request now. Where
    possible, use &V1& as the target system.
    If you are sure you want to transport the change request into a target
    system other than &V1&, then ignore this message.
    <ZH>Note</>
    Transporting the change request &V2& to another target system could
    result in inconsistencies there, because logical dependencies
    may exist between the objects you transport and other objects that do
    not exist in the target system or have an incorrect version there.
    If you are uncertain which target system the change request should be
    transported to, contact the person coordinating the development
    work.

    The SAP error message TK664 ("Use target system &1 for your request") typically occurs in the context of transport requests in SAP.

Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect Target System: The transport request is intended for a different system than the one you are currently logged into. For example, if you are in a development system but the transport request is meant for a production system, you will encounter this error.
