• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TK679 - Request/task &1 belongs to user &2 ?

  The SAP error message TK679 indicates that a request or task is associated with a specific user, and it cannot be processed by another user. This typically occurs in the context of transport requests in the SAP system, where a transport request is locked to the user who created it.
  Cause:
  
  User Locking: The transport request is locked to the user who created it. Only that user can release or modify the request.
  Authorization Issues: The user attempting to access or modify the request may not have the necessary authorizations.
  Transport Request Status: The transport request may be in a status that does not allow it to be processed by other users (e.g., it is still in the "modification" state).
  
  Solution:
  
  Use the Correct User: If you need to work with the transport request, log in as the user who created it. This user can release or modify the request as needed.
  Change Ownership: If the original user is unavailable, a user with appropriate authorizations (like a Basis administrator) can change the ownership of the transport request using transaction SE09 or SE10.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user attempting to access the request has the necessary authorizations to work with transport requests.
  Release the Request: If you have the necessary permissions, you can release the transport request to make it available for other users.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for specific procedures related to transport requests.
