  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SMB/Q2P012 - Check transport &1 - Contains content artifacts, but not mergable ?

    The SAP error message /SMB/Q2P012 Check transport &1 - Contains content artifacts, but not mergable typically occurs in the context of SAP Solution Manager or SAP Transport Management System (TMS) when dealing with transport requests that contain content artifacts that cannot be merged. This can happen during the transport of changes between different SAP systems (e.g., from development to quality assurance or production).

    Cause:

    1. Non-Mergable Artifacts: The transport request contains artifacts (like configuration settings, development objects, etc.) that are not designed to be merged. This can happen if the artifacts have dependencies or if they are of a type that does not support merging.
    2. Conflicting Changes: If multiple transport requests are trying to modify the same object or configuration, it can lead to conflicts that prevent merging.
    3. Incorrect Transport Configuration: The transport request may not be properly configured, or there may be issues with the transport layer settings.

    Solution:

    1. Check Transport Request: Review the transport request (&1 in the error message) to identify the specific artifacts that are causing the issue. You can do this using transaction SE09 or SE10.
    2. Analyze Dependencies: Look for dependencies between the artifacts in the transport request. If there are conflicting changes, you may need to resolve these conflicts manually.
    3. Separate Transport Requests: If possible, separate the non-mergable artifacts into different transport requests. This can help avoid conflicts and allow for smoother transport.
    4. Manual Adjustment: In some cases, you may need to manually adjust the artifacts in the target system to ensure they are compatible with the incoming transport.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to transport management and the specific artifacts you are working with for additional guidance.
    6. Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot resolve it, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
    • Transport Management Documentation: Review the official SAP documentation on transport management for best practices and guidelines.
    • Change Management: Ensure that your change management processes are robust to minimize conflicts and issues with transport requests.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
