  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TK812 - Assign a normal package to the object ?

    The SAP error message TK812, which states "Assign a normal package to the object," typically occurs when you are trying to create or modify an object in the SAP system that is not assigned to a proper package. In SAP, objects such as programs, function modules, classes, and other development objects need to be assigned to a package for proper organization and transport management.

    Cause:

    1. Object Creation in a Non-Transportable Package: The object you are trying to create or modify is being assigned to a package that is either a "local" package (which is not transportable) or is not assigned to any package at all.
    2. Development Class Issues: The object may be created in a development class that is not defined correctly or is not intended for the type of object you are working with.
    3. Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to assign the object to a package.

    Solution:

    1. Assign to a Normal Package:

      • When creating or modifying the object, ensure that you assign it to a valid, transportable package. You can do this by selecting a package from the package selection dialog.
      • If you are unsure which package to use, consult with your SAP administrator or development team to identify the appropriate package.
    2. Create a New Package:

      • If there is no suitable package available, you may need to create a new package. This can be done using transaction code SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE21 (Package Builder).
      • Ensure that the new package is defined as a normal package and is transportable.
    3. Check Authorizations:

      • Verify that you have the necessary authorizations to create or modify objects in the selected package. If not, contact your SAP security administrator to obtain the required permissions.
    4. Use Local Object (if appropriate):

      • If the object is for temporary use or testing, you can assign it to a local object (using the "$TMP" package). However, this is not recommended for production objects as they will not be transportable.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SE80 (Object Navigator)
      • SE21 (Package Builder)
      • SE11 (Data Dictionary)
      • SE37 (Function Module)
    • SAP Documentation: Refer to the SAP Help Portal or the specific documentation for your SAP version for more details on package management and object assignment.

    • Best Practices: Always follow your organization's development guidelines regarding package assignment to ensure proper transport and version control.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the TK812 error and successfully assign your object to a normal package.
