• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWF_FLEX_UTL100 - Repair: &1 generated runtime versions, &2 deleted ?

  The SAP error message SWF_FLEX_UTL100 typically relates to issues with the workflow runtime versions in the SAP system. This error indicates that the system has generated a certain number of runtime versions (denoted by &1) and has deleted another set of runtime versions (denoted by &2). This can occur during the repair process of workflow definitions.
  Cause:
  
  Workflow Definition Changes: The error often arises when there are changes made to workflow definitions, which can lead to the generation of new runtime versions.
  Version Management: SAP manages different versions of workflows, and if the number of versions exceeds a certain limit, older versions may be deleted automatically.
  System Configuration: The system may be configured to limit the number of active workflow versions, leading to the deletion of older versions when new ones are created.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Workflow Definitions: Review the workflow definitions that have been modified recently. Ensure that the changes are necessary and that you are aware of the implications of generating new runtime versions.
  Version Management Settings: If the deletion of versions is problematic, consider adjusting the settings for version management in the workflow configuration. This may involve increasing the limit on the number of versions that can be retained.
  Repair Workflow: If the error occurs during a repair process, you may need to re-execute the repair or check for any inconsistencies in the workflow definitions.
  Monitor Workflow Versions: Regularly monitor the number of workflow versions in your system to prevent unexpected deletions. You can do this through transaction codes like SWI1 (Work Item Selection) or SWI2_FREQ (Work Item Selection with Frequency).
  Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may provide additional guidance or patches related to this error message.
  
  Related Information:
