  The SAP error message AIMMERGER_SHD081 typically relates to issues encountered during the transport of objects in the SAP system, particularly when dealing with the synchronization of transport requests. The specific message "SYNCMARK set before transport &" indicates that there is a synchronization marker that has been set before the transport of a particular object or request, which can lead to inconsistencies or issues during the transport process.
  Cause:
  
  Synchronization Issues: The error often arises when there are inconsistencies in the transport layer, particularly if changes have been made to objects that are not properly synchronized with the transport request.

  Solution:
  
  Check Transport Requests: Review the transport requests involved to ensure that all changes are properly captured and that there are no conflicts. Make sure that the transport request is released and that all objects are included.
  Synchronize Changes: If there are changes that have not been synchronized, you may need to manually synchronize the objects or re-import the transport request to ensure consistency.
