• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TR013 - Original system set to "SAP" ?

  The SAP error message TR013, which states "Original system set to 'SAP'," typically occurs in the context of transport requests in SAP systems. This error indicates that the transport request is trying to be imported into a system that is not the original system where the transport request was created. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Transport Request Origin: The transport request was created in a different system (e.g., Development system) and is being imported into a system that is not the original system (e.g., Quality Assurance or Production).
  System Configuration: The transport directory or configuration might be incorrectly set up, leading to mismatches in the transport landscape.
  Transport Layer Issues: The transport layer might not be correctly defined, or the transport route may not allow the transport request to be imported into the target system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Transport Route: Ensure that the transport route is correctly defined in the Transport Management System (TMS). The route should allow the transport request to move from the source system to the target system.
  Use Correct System: Make sure you are importing the transport request into the correct system that matches the original system where the transport request was created.
  Adjust Transport Layer: Verify that the transport layer is correctly configured. You may need to adjust the transport layer settings in TMS to allow the transport request to be imported.
  Manual Import: If necessary, you can manually import the transport request using transaction SE09 or SE10, but ensure that you are aware of the implications of doing so.
  Check Transport Request: Review the transport request to ensure it is not locked or has any issues that might prevent it from being imported.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transport Management System (TMS): Familiarize yourself with TMS, as it is crucial for managing transport requests between different SAP systems.
  Transport Logs: Check the transport logs for more detailed error messages that can provide additional context on why the import is failing.
  SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues related to transport requests and the TR013 error. SAP Notes can provide patches or additional guidance.
  System Landscape: Understand your system landscape (Development, Quality Assurance, Production) and how transport requests flow between these systems.
  
  If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis team or refer to SAP support for further assistance.
