  Compare Configurations: Use transaction codes like SPRO to compare the configuration settings between the source and target systems. Identify the specific areas where the configurations differ.
  Replicate Missing Configurations: Manually replicate the missing configurations from the source system to the target system. This may involve creating or adjusting settings in the target system to match those in the source.
  Check Transport Requests: Ensure that all relevant transport requests have been successfully imported into the target system. If any requests are missing, transport them from the source system.
