  Error Message
  WER473 No request found for application &1
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when the SAP system tries to find a transport request associated with a particular application (e.g., a development object or change) but cannot find any transport request linked to it.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  Attempting to release or import a transport request that does not exist or has not been created.
  Trying to assign a change to a transport request, but no request has been created or selected.
  The application or object you are working on has not been assigned to any transport request.
  The transport request might have been deleted or is not visible due to authorization or system inconsistencies.
  
  
  Explanation
  In SAP, when you make changes to development objects (programs, dictionary objects, customizing, etc.), these changes must be recorded in a transport request. The system uses this request to track and move changes between systems (e.g., from development to quality assurance).
  If the system cannot find a transport request for the application or object you are trying to work with, it raises this error.
  
  Solution
  
  
  Create or Select a Transport Request:
  
  When making changes, ensure you create a transport request or select an existing one.
  In the change mode, SAP usually prompts you to assign a transport request. If not, manually create one via transaction SE09 or SE10.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Request Existence:
  
  Use transaction SE09 or SE10 to verify if the transport request exists.
  If the request was deleted or does not exist, create a new one.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure you have the necessary authorizations to create or display transport requests.
  Lack of authorization might prevent you from seeing or creating transport requests.
  
  
  
  Check Object Assignment:
  
  Verify that the object or application is correctly assigned to a transport request.
  Sometimes, objects are changed in a system without proper transport assignment.
  
  
  
  System Consistency:
  
  If the problem persists, check for inconsistencies in the transport system.
  Run transport-related reports or consult BASIS team to check transport system health.
  
  
  
  Use Transport Organizer:
  
  Use transaction SE09 or SE10 to manage transport requests properly.
  Assign your changes to a transport request before attempting to release or import.

  SAP Notes:
  
  Check SAP Notes related to transport errors if the problem is persistent.
  Example: SAP Note 102785 - "No request found for application" error during transport.
  
  
  
  Transport Concepts:
  
  Understanding the transport layer and request assignment is crucial.
  Changes must be recorded in transport requests to be moved across systems.
