  The SAP error message TP528, which states "Original object not overwritten," typically occurs during transport operations in SAP. This error indicates that the system is trying to overwrite an existing object in the target system, but it is unable to do so due to various reasons. Here are some common causes, solutions, and related information for this error:
  Causes:
  
  Object Already Exists: The object you are trying to transport already exists in the target system, and the transport request is not set to overwrite it.
  Transport Request Issues: The transport request may not be correctly configured or may be in a status that prevents overwriting.

  Authorization Issues: The user performing the transport may not have the necessary authorizations to overwrite the existing object.

  Solutions:
  
  Check Object Existence: Verify if the object already exists in the target system. If it does, determine if it should be overwritten or if the transport should be adjusted.
  Adjust Transport Request: If the transport request is not set to overwrite existing objects, you may need to adjust the request or create a new one that allows for overwriting.
  Version Management: If there are version conflicts, consider whether you need to update the existing object in the target system or if the transport should be modified to include the latest version.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user performing the transport has the necessary authorizations to overwrite objects in the target system.
  Release Locks: If the object is locked, identify the user or process that has locked it and resolve the locking issue before attempting the transport again.
