This error is common when you are working in the ABAP Workbench or when creating transport requests.
Cause:

- In the object properties, look for the "Package" field.
- Enter a valid package name or use the "Find" option to select an existing package.
Use the Local Object:
- If you do not want to assign the object to a package (for example, for testing purposes), you can choose to create it as a local object. This is done by selecting the option for "Local Object" (usually indicated by the name "Local Object" or the object name starting with
$TMP
).- Note that local objects are not transportable and are only available in the development environment.
Check Authorization:
- Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to create or modify objects in the specified package. Lack of authorization can sometimes lead to issues when trying to assign packages.
Consult with Your Basis Team:
- If you are unsure about which package to use or if you encounter further issues, consult with your SAP Basis team or the person responsible for transport management in your organization.
