  • What causes this issue?

    You have called Transport Organizer Web UI for the dual-stack system
    &v2&.
    The client in which you have started Transport Organizer Web UI is not
    the same as the client that was defined in TMS parameter
    NON_ABAP_WBO_CLIENT for this system. However, Transport Organizer Web UI
    only works for non-ABAP transports, if the clients match.

    System Response

    Transport Organizer Web UI only provides the functions available for
    ABAP systems. Editing the object list and pre-selecting transport
    requests is not possible.

    How to fix this error?

    If system &v2& is a source system the following situations may occur:
    The value of TMS parameter NON_ABAP_WBO_CLIENT is incorrect. Change it
    to the correct value and re-start Transport Organizer Web UI.
    The value of TMS parameter NON_ABAP_WBO_CLIENT is correct, but you are
    working in the wrong client. Re-start Transport Organizer Web UI in the
    correct client.
    If system &v2& is a target system, there is no need for TMS parameter
    NON_ABAP_WBO_CLIENT, since this is required to create and change
    transport requests, and transport requests are only created and changed
    in source systems.

    Procedure for System Administrators

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
