  • What causes this issue?

    Template &V1& could not be generated in client &V2&. This could be due
    to a syntax error or missing tables, for example.

    System Response

    No subsequent processing of the transport for template &V1& is
    performed.

    How to fix this error?

    Check the template using the template maintenance transaction CPT2/CPT3.
    If the syntax check for the template is successful, save the template or
    generate it with the corresponding button on the overview screen. Any
    errors that occur during the syntax check or while the template is being
    saved or generated must be corrected. You may have to do this in the
    source system.
    A complete transport is required if subsequent processing terminates
    with return code 12. Otherwise you only need to transport the faulty
    template.
