• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CTS_CONFIG_MSG_CL129 - Changes of TMS configuration have not yet been distributed ?

  The SAP error message CTS_CONFIG_MSG_CL129 indicates that changes made to the Transport Management System (TMS) configuration have not yet been distributed to the relevant systems in the landscape. This can occur when you make changes to the TMS configuration, such as adding or modifying transport routes, and those changes have not been propagated to the other systems.
  Cause:
  
  Pending Distribution: Changes made in the TMS configuration are not automatically distributed to all systems. You need to manually trigger the distribution.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the distribution.
  System Connectivity: There may be issues with the connectivity between the systems in the landscape, preventing the distribution from occurring.
  Configuration Errors: There may be errors in the TMS configuration itself that need to be resolved before distribution can occur.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check TMS Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction STMS.
  Check the TMS configuration and ensure that all changes are correct.
  
  
  
  Distribute TMS Configuration:
