  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWF_FLEX_TRANSPORT030 - Export not possible because of &2 existing template draft(s)[scenario &1] ?

    The SAP error message SWF_FLEX_TRANSPORT030 indicates that an export operation cannot be completed because there are existing template drafts for a specific scenario. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Workflow Management or SAP Business Workflow, where templates are used to define workflows.

    Cause:

    The error is caused by the presence of one or more draft templates that have not been finalized or published. The system prevents the export of a scenario if there are drafts that could potentially conflict with the export process. The message specifies that there are &2 existing template drafts for the scenario &1, which is preventing the export.

    Solution:

    To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:

    1. Check for Drafts: Identify the existing draft templates associated with the scenario mentioned in the error message. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction or application where the templates are managed.

    2. Finalize or Delete Drafts:

      • If the drafts are no longer needed, you can delete them.
      • If the drafts are still relevant, you should finalize or publish them. This typically involves completing any necessary changes and saving the template in a finalized state.
    3. Retry Export: Once you have either deleted or finalized the drafts, attempt the export operation again.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Depending on your SAP version, you may use transaction codes like SWDD (Workflow Builder) or SWF_XI (for managing workflows) to manage your templates.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for Workflow Management for detailed instructions on managing templates and drafts.
    • Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to delete or finalize drafts, as this may be restricted based on user roles.

    If the problem persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to your SAP Basis or Workflow team for further assistance, as there may be underlying issues that need to be addressed.
