• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /UI2/WD_CFG108 - Object cannot be handled without a transport ?

  The SAP error message /UI2/WD_CFG108 Object cannot be handled without a transport typically occurs in the context of SAP Web Dynpro applications, particularly when you are trying to perform actions that require a transport request, such as activating or modifying certain objects in a development environment.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Transport Request: The error indicates that the object you are trying to handle (like a Web Dynpro component or configuration) is not associated with a transport request. In SAP, changes to objects in the development environment need to be captured in a transport request to be moved to other environments (like quality assurance or production).
  
  
  Local Object: The object might be a local object (i.e., it was created without a transport request) and cannot be activated or modified in a way that requires a transport.
  
  
  System Configuration: There might be system settings or configurations that prevent the handling of certain objects without a transport.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Create a Transport Request: If you are working on a development object, ensure that you create a transport request for it. You can do this by:
  
  Going to the object in the SAP GUI.
  Selecting the option to create a transport request.
  Associating your changes with this transport request.
  
  
  
  Check Object Status: Verify the status of the object you are trying to handle. If it is a local object, you may need to create a transport request and then re-create the object under that transport.
  
  
  Use the Correct Environment: Ensure that you are working in the correct environment (development vs. production) and that you have the necessary authorizations to create and manage transport requests.
  
  
  Consult with Basis Team: If you are unsure about the transport process or if there are system-level issues, consult with your SAP Basis team. They can provide insights into system configurations and help with transport management.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transport Management System (TMS): Familiarize yourself with the TMS in SAP, which is responsible for managing transport requests and the movement of objects between different SAP systems.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues related to this error message. SAP Notes can provide patches or additional guidance.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation on Web Dynpro and transport management for best practices and detailed procedures.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the /UI2/WD_CFG108 error and successfully handle the object in question.
