• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AIMMERGER_SHD014 - Transports with different TRFUNCTION found. Merge is not performed. ?

  The SAP error message AIMMERGER_SHD014 indicates that there is an issue with merging transport requests (TRs) due to the presence of different transport functions (TRFUNCTION) in the requests being merged. This typically occurs in the context of transport management, where multiple transport requests are being combined into a single request, but they have conflicting or incompatible settings.
  Cause:
  
  Different TRFUNCTIONs: The transport requests being merged have different TRFUNCTION values. TRFUNCTION indicates the type of transport request (e.g., customizing, workbench, etc.). If the requests have different types, the system will not allow the merge.
  Inconsistent Transport Requests: The transport requests may have been created under different circumstances or for different purposes, leading to inconsistencies.
  Transport Layer Issues: There may be issues related to the transport layer configuration that prevent the merging of requests.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check TRFUNCTION Values: Review the TRFUNCTION values of the transport requests you are trying to merge. Ensure that they are the same. You can do this by using transaction code SE09 or SE10 to view the transport requests.
  Separate Merging: If the TRFUNCTIONs are different, consider merging only those transport requests that have the same TRFUNCTION. You may need to create a new transport request for the changes that need to be merged.
  Manual Adjustment: If necessary, you can manually adjust the transport requests to ensure they are compatible. This may involve creating a new transport request and moving the relevant objects into it.
  Consult Transport Management Documentation: Review SAP documentation related to transport management for best practices and guidelines on merging transport requests.
  Check Transport Layer Configuration: Ensure that the transport layer is correctly configured and that there are no underlying issues that could be causing the problem.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use SE09 or SE10 to manage transport requests.
  Transport Management System (TMS): Familiarize yourself with TMS and its configuration to better understand how transport requests are handled.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to transport requests and merging.
