Specifically, the message states that only transport request types K (Customizing), T (Transport of Copies), or W (Workbench) can be edited in the current environment.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you attempt to edit a transport request of a type that is not permitted. This could happen if:
  
  You are trying to edit a transport request of type "S" (SAP standard) or any other type that is not K, T, or W.
  The system is configured to restrict editing of certain transport request types in specific environments (e.g., production).
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Transport Request Type:
  
  Verify the type of the transport request you are trying to edit. You can do this by checking the transport request in the Transport Organizer (transaction SE09 or SE10).
  
  
  
  Use the Correct Transport Request Type:
  
  If you need to make changes, ensure that you are using a transport request of type K, T, or W. If you are working with a different type, you may need to create a new transport request of the appropriate type.
  
  
  
  Consult with Basis Team:
  
  If you believe you should be able to edit the transport request, consult with your SAP Basis team. They may have specific configurations or restrictions in place that prevent editing of certain transport request types.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization:
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to edit transport requests. Lack of proper authorization can also lead to similar issues.
