• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TR_AUSL261 - Delivery request &1 still has to be sorted and compressed (manually) ?

  The SAP error message TR_AUSL261 indicates that a delivery request (or transport request) still needs to be sorted and compressed manually. This typically occurs in the context of transport management within SAP, where changes made in the development environment need to be transported to the quality assurance or production environments.
  Cause:
  
  Transport Request Status: The transport request is in a state that requires manual intervention. This can happen if the request contains multiple objects that need to be sorted or compressed before they can be transported.
  Dependencies: There may be dependencies between objects in the transport request that need to be resolved.
  Incomplete Sorting: The system may not have automatically sorted the objects in the transport request, which is necessary for the transport to proceed.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Manual Sorting and Compression:
  
  Go to the Transport Organizer (transaction code SE09 or SE10).
  Locate the transport request that is causing the error.
  Right-click on the transport request and select the option to "Sort" or "Compress".
  Follow the prompts to complete the sorting and compression process.
  
  
  
  Check Dependencies:
  
  Review the objects in the transport request to ensure that all dependencies are met.
  If there are missing dependencies, you may need to include additional objects in the transport request.
  
  
  
  Release the Transport Request:
  
  After sorting and compressing, ensure that the transport request is released. This can be done by right-clicking on the request and selecting "Release".
  
  
  
  Check Transport Logs:
  
  If the issue persists, check the transport logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context on what is causing the issue.
