The SAP error message EA672 typically indicates an issue related to the transport of segment definitions in the context of the SAP Application Interface Framework (AIF) or similar areas where segment definitions are used. This error can occur when there is a problem with the transport request that is supposed to carry the segment definition from one system to another (e.g., from development to quality assurance or production).
Cause:
- Transport Request Issues: The transport request may not have been properly released or may be missing required objects.
- Inconsistent Data: There may be inconsistencies in the segment definitions between the source and target systems.
- Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the transport or to access the segment definitions.
- Version Conflicts: There may be version conflicts if the segment definitions have been modified in the target system after the transport request was created.
Solution:
- Check Transport Request: Ensure that the transport request containing the segment definition is properly released and includes all necessary objects. You can do this by checking the transport logs in the Transport Management System (STMS).
- Consistency Check: Verify that the segment definitions are consistent between the source and target systems. You may need to manually adjust or re-import the segment definitions.
- Authorization Check: Ensure that the user performing the transport has the necessary authorizations. You can check this in transaction SU53 or by reviewing the user's roles and authorizations.
- Re-transport: If the transport request is found to be incomplete or incorrect, you may need to create a new transport request or re-transport the segment definitions.
- Check for Updates: If the segment definitions have been updated in the target system, consider whether those changes need to be merged with the incoming transport.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
