  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BT548 - Job definition &1 (program &2) added to transport request ?

    The SAP error message BT548 indicates that a job definition has been added to a transport request. This message is not necessarily an error but rather an informational message that indicates that a background job definition (job name &1) associated with a specific program (&2) has been included in a transport request.

    Cause:

    This message typically occurs when:

    • A background job is created or modified in the SAP system.
    • The job definition is set to be transported to another SAP system (e.g., from development to quality assurance or production).
    • The transport request is being created or released, and the job definition is included in that request.

    Solution:

    1. Review the Transport Request: Check the transport request to ensure that the job definition is included as intended. You can do this by going to the Transport Organizer (transaction code SE09 or SE10) and reviewing the contents of the transport request.

    2. Verify Job Definition: If you did not intend to transport the job definition, you can remove it from the transport request. To do this:

      • Go to transaction code SM37 (Job Monitoring).
      • Find the job definition and check its details.
      • If necessary, delete or modify the job definition in the development system.
    3. Release the Transport Request: If the job definition is correct and you want to transport it, you can proceed to release the transport request. This will move the job definition to the target system when the transport is imported.

    4. Import the Transport Request: Once the transport request is released, ensure that it is imported into the target system using transaction code STMS (Transport Management System).

    Related Information:

    • Background Jobs: Background jobs in SAP are scheduled tasks that run in the background without user intervention. They can be created using transaction code SM36.
    • Transport Management System (TMS): TMS is used to manage the transport of objects between different SAP systems (e.g., development, quality assurance, production).
    • Transport Requests: These are used to bundle changes made in the development environment for transport to other environments.

    If you encounter this message frequently and it is causing issues, consider reviewing your transport strategy and job management practices to ensure that only necessary job definitions are included in transport requests.
