  The SAP error message ESH_CU_WB008 indicates that a specific package (denoted by &1) requires transportation. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's Enterprise Search or other components where changes made in a development environment need to be transported to a quality assurance or production environment.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Transport Request: The package you are trying to work with has not been included in a transport request. This means that the changes made in the development environment are not yet available in the target environment.
  Incomplete Configuration: The package may have been configured or modified, but the changes have not been properly captured in a transport request.
  System Configuration: There may be issues with the system configuration that prevent the package from being recognized as transported.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Create a Transport Request:
  
  Go to the transaction code SE09 or SE10 in the SAP GUI.

  Import the Transport Request:
  
  Once the transport request is released, it needs to be imported into the target system (e.g., quality assurance or production).
  Use transaction code STMS to manage the transport landscape and import the request.
