When we try to import the transport in the same(DEV) system also we have problem and when we import to other system the transport goes fine.

Many thanks,

Jay,

seems data in the TBTCPV view was corrupted .. try to re-define the failing jobs thru SM36 or SM37 ..

for RDDIMPDP -- in SE38--> Run RDDNEWPP program to re-define the Job.
