• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TR691 - Consolidation system and original system of the object are identical ?

  The SAP error message TR691 indicates that there is an issue with the transport request in the context of SAP's transport management system, specifically related to the consolidation system and the original system being identical. This typically occurs when you are trying to transport objects from one system to another, but the source and target systems are the same, which is not allowed.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  You attempt to transport a transport request from a system to itself. 
  The transport request is meant for a different system, but the system configuration is incorrect, leading to the transport request being directed to the same system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Transport Request: Verify the transport request you are trying to release. Ensure that it is intended for a different target system.
  
  
  Correct Target System: If you are mistakenly trying to transport to the same system, change the target system in the transport management configuration.
  
  
  Release Transport Request: If the transport request is indeed meant for a different system, ensure that you are using the correct transport route and that the target system is correctly defined in the transport management system.
  
  
  Use Transport Organizer: Use the Transport Organizer (SE09 or SE10) to manage your transport requests. Ensure that the requests are correctly assigned to the appropriate target systems.
  
  
  Check Transport Routes: Review the transport routes in the Transport Management System (STMS) to ensure that they are correctly configured and that the source and target systems are distinct.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the transport configuration, refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis team for assistance.
