• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SMB/TRANSP_INFRA264 - Repeating import due to previous result in Import History ?

  The SAP error message /SMB/TRANSP_INFRA264 indicates that there is a repeating import due to a previous result in the import history. This typically occurs in the context of transport management, where a transport request is being imported into a system, but the import process is being interrupted or has already been executed with a certain result.
  Cause:
  
  Previous Import Result: The transport request may have been imported previously, and the system is detecting that the same request is being attempted again without any changes or updates.
  Import History: The import history for the transport request indicates that the request has already been processed, which prevents it from being imported again.
  Transport Request Status: The transport request may be in a status that does not allow for re-import, such as being marked as "completed" or "failed" without the possibility of re-importing.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Import History: Review the import history for the transport request in question. You can do this using transaction STMS (Transport Management System) and navigating to the import history of the relevant transport request.
  Delete or Adjust Previous Import: If the previous import was unsuccessful or needs to be re-imported, you may need to delete the previous import result or adjust the transport request accordingly. This can involve:
  
  Reverting changes made by the previous import if necessary.
  Adjusting the transport request to ensure it is in a state that allows for re-import.
  
  
  Re-transport the Request: If the transport request needs to be re-imported, ensure that it is properly released and that there are no locks or issues preventing the import.
  Check for Dependencies: Ensure that there are no dependencies or prerequisites that need to be addressed before re-importing the transport request.
  Consult Logs: Check the transport logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context on why the import is being blocked.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as STMS for transport management, SE01 for transport organizer, and SE09 for managing transport requests.
  SAP Notes: Look for SAP Notes related to transport issues or the specific error message for any patches or updates that may address the problem.
  System Configuration: Ensure that the transport routes and system configurations are correctly set up to avoid issues with transport imports.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis team or reach out to SAP support for further assistance.
