• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GK359 - Invalid combination of test run and original list ?

  The SAP error message GK359 "Invalid combination of test run and original list" typically occurs in the context of executing a test run for a report or transaction that requires an original list to be present. This error indicates that the system is unable to process the request due to an inconsistency between the test run settings and the original data list.
  Cause:
  
  
  Test Run Configuration: The error often arises when a test run is initiated without a corresponding original list. In SAP, a test run is meant to simulate the execution of a process without making any actual changes to the data. If the system expects an original list (e.g., a list of items to be processed) and it is not provided, this error will occur.
  
  
  Incorrect Parameters: The parameters set for the report or transaction may not align with the requirements for a test run. For example, if the report is designed to work with a specific type of input data, and that data is not available, the error will be triggered.
  
  
  Missing Data: The original list or data set that the test run is supposed to reference may be missing or not properly defined.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Input Parameters: Ensure that the parameters you are using for the test run are correct and that they include a valid original list. Review the documentation for the specific transaction or report to understand the required inputs.
  
  
  Provide an Original List: If the test run requires an original list, make sure to provide it. This could involve selecting the appropriate data set or ensuring that the data is available in the system.
  
  
  Review Configuration: If you are using a custom report or transaction, check the configuration settings to ensure that they are set up correctly for test runs. This may involve consulting with your SAP administrator or developer.
  
  
  Run in Production Mode: If you are unable to resolve the issue in test mode, consider running the transaction in production mode (if appropriate) to see if it processes correctly without the test run.
