  The SAP error message 25049, which states "There is no recipient list for & with the given context," typically occurs in the context of SAP Business Workflow or when dealing with notifications and messages in SAP systems. This error indicates that the system is unable to find a recipient list for a specific workflow or message context.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Recipient List: The most common cause is that the recipient list for the specified workflow or message context has not been defined or is empty.
  Incorrect Workflow Configuration: The workflow may not be properly configured to include recipients.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the recipient list.
  Context Issues: The context in which the workflow is being executed may not match any defined recipient lists.
  
  Solution:

  Verify that the task or step in the workflow has a valid recipient assignment.

  Ensure that the context being used in the workflow matches the expected context for which the recipient list is defined.
