Reproducing the Issue
Prerequisites:
-
You have already created your Transport Request with a transport object of type Business Role included.
- You have assembled this request in the Source system.
- You have activated the Transport Request in the Source system to send to the Target system.
To review the Transport Logs:
- Go to the Administrator work center.
- Go to the Transport Management view.
- Open the Transport Request XYZ (XYZ represents the ID).
- Go to the Transport Logs facet.
- Click on Expand All button to show detailed log messages.
- Observe the error message(s).
Error:
Extension Field <BOName>-<NodeName> EXT-<TechnicalFieldName> of Business Role <RoleName> is invalid Transport Object ID: <NameOfRequest>.
Cause
The business role in the Source system contains a restriction for an extension field that is not available in the Target system.
Resolution
You should either:
-
Recreate the extension field in the Target system with the exact same properties (name, data type etc.) and try to activate the Transport Request again.
- Modify the business role in the Source system and remove the field restriction for the extension field. You can then create a new Transport Request and send to the Target system. After doing this, you can maintain the same configurations.
