• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /UIF/LREP_TMS_MSG020 - Local object cannot be assigned to a transport ?

  The SAP error message /UIF/LREP_TMS_MSG020 indicates that a local object cannot be assigned to a transport request. This typically occurs when you are trying to transport a development object that is classified as a "local object" (i.e., an object that is not assigned to a transport request) into a transport system.
  Cause:
  
  Local Object: The object you are trying to transport is marked as a local object. Local objects are usually created in the development environment without being assigned to a transport request.
  Transport Layer Issues: There may be issues with the transport layer configuration or the transport request itself.
  Development Class: The object may belong to a development class that is not transportable or is set to local.
  Transport Request Status: The transport request may be in a status that does not allow for the addition of new objects.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Change Object Type: If the object is a local object, you need to convert it to a transportable object. This can be done by assigning it to a transport request:
  
  Open the object in the relevant transaction (e.g., SE80 for development objects).
  Use the "Transport" option to assign the object to a transport request.
  
  
  
  Create a Transport Request: If you do not have an existing transport request, create a new one and assign the object to it.
  
  Go to transaction SE09 or SE10 to create a new transport request.
  After creating the request, go back to the object and assign it to the new transport request.
  
  
  
  Check Development Class: Ensure that the development class of the object is set correctly and is transportable. If it is a local development class, consider changing it to a transportable one.
  
  
  Review Transport Layer Configuration: Check the transport layer configuration in transaction STMS to ensure that everything is set up correctly.
  
  
  Check Transport Request Status: Ensure that the transport request is in a status that allows for the addition of objects (e.g., it should not be released or closed).
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Local Objects: In SAP, local objects are typically prefixed with a $ sign and are not intended for transport between systems.
  Transport Management System (TMS): TMS is the framework used in SAP for managing transports between different systems (e.g., Development, Quality Assurance, Production).
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SE09/SE10: Transport Organizer for managing transport requests.
  SE80: Object Navigator for working with various development objects.
  STMS: Transport Management System for managing transport routes and configurations.
