  The SAP error message UT118, which states "The request does not contain object & for import," typically occurs during the transport of objects in the SAP system. This error indicates that the transport request you are trying to import does not contain the specified object, which is necessary for the import process.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Object in Transport Request: The most common cause is that the object you are trying to import is not included in the transport request. This can happen if the object was not properly added to the transport request or if it was removed after the request was created.
  Incorrect Transport Request: You may be trying to import a transport request that is not meant for the current system or does not contain the necessary objects.
  Transport Directory Issues: There may be issues with the transport directory or the transport management system that prevent the proper identification of objects.

  Check Transport Logs:
  
  Review the transport logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the issue.
  
  
  
  Use the Correct Transport Request:
  
  Ensure that you are using the correct transport request for the system you are importing into. Sometimes, objects are transported between different systems (e.g., from development to quality assurance) and may not be compatible.
  
  
  
  Consult with Basis Team:
