    The SAP error message TN117, which states "The Support Package queue was confirmed," typically indicates that there is an issue with the processing of support packages in the SAP system. This message is often related to the transport management system (TMS) and can occur during the import of support packages or when managing transport requests.

    Cause:

    1. Transport Queue Issues: The error may arise if there are issues with the transport queue, such as a transport request being locked or not being processed correctly.

    Solution:

    1. Check Transport Queue:
