  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWF_FLEX_TRANSPORT037 - Missing user(s) [scenario &1] ?

    The SAP error message SWF_FLEX_TRANSPORT037 indicates that there are missing users in a specific scenario during the transport of workflow definitions or related objects. This error typically arises when the workflow scenario you are trying to transport references users that are not available in the target system.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Users: The users defined in the workflow scenario (e.g., as agents or responsible persons) do not exist in the target system.
    2. User Mapping Issues: There may be discrepancies in user IDs between the source and target systems, especially if users were created or modified after the last transport.
    3. Transport Configuration: The transport configuration may not include user data or the necessary user mappings.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Existence: Verify that all users referenced in the workflow scenario exist in the target system. You can do this by checking the user master records (transaction code SU01).
    2. Create Missing Users: If any users are missing, create them in the target system or ensure that they are included in the transport request.
    3. User Mapping: If the user IDs differ between systems, consider using user mapping to align the user IDs. This can be done in transaction code SU10 or through the user mapping functionality in the transport management system.
    4. Adjust Workflow Definitions: If certain users are not needed in the target system, you may need to adjust the workflow definitions to remove or replace those users with valid ones.
    5. Transport User Data: Ensure that user data is included in the transport request. You may need to create a transport request that includes user master data if it is not already included.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • SU10: Mass User Maintenance
      • SWDD: Workflow Builder
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for workflows and transport management for detailed guidance on managing users and workflows.
