Will it allow you to change the package from Z001 to a package which is tied to a transport layer?

Hi Subhashini,

This looks like a BASIS issue.. are you doing an upgrade? the following links might be of help to resolve the issue.. again, you might have to seek SAP's help by opening an OSS message.. You said this is a local Change Request so its Transport route ahs to be chnages to make it transportable.. pl see this <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/44/b4a4617acc11d1899e0000e829fbbd/frameset.htm">sap help</a>

may be this is what happened when the structure was initially chnaged.. the following is from sap help..

"The configuration of the transport routes in the SAP System determines whether changes to objects during modification adjustment are recorded in a local or transportable change request. You cannot and must not change these settings during the upgrade. In all cases, the change request can still be used for automatically transferring modifications to a subsequent system. For this procedure, the change requests are not released in the normal way, but handled specially.

Hi,

Now that you are the owner of the Change Request, did you try to delete the Object from the Object list of this Transport? In SE09, display the Transport Request; expand the task that is tied to the request--> place the cursor on the APPEND STRUCTURE Object and hit delete icon on the status bar; you will get a information message that the Object is locked; hit enter; a window pops up that says Object locked. delete from Objectlist? select the yes option. Once the Object is removed from this Change Request, you should be able to change the Object.

Hi Suba,

You can create your own structure. All you have to do is that...

1. Goto Transaction Code SE11 and type a new structure name zxxxx or yxxxx.

2. Click the fields tab.( After finishing the techniqual settings & maintenance settings)

3. There in the first column type '.include'

4. In the second column type 'type'

5. In the third column type 'listvbap'

i.e is the structure name.

6. Now you can add the fields you want to add in your new created structure zxxxx or yxxxx.

7. It's always good practice to do like this.

Hope it helps.
