• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TSGEN020 - Generation set contains &1 object(s) ?

  The SAP error message TSGEN020 indicates that the generation set contains a certain number of objects (denoted by &1). This message typically arises during the generation of objects in the SAP system, particularly when working with ABAP programs, function modules, or other repository objects.
  Cause:
  The error message TSGEN020 usually occurs due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Incomplete Generation: The generation process was not completed successfully, possibly due to missing dependencies or errors in the objects being generated.
  Locked Objects: Some objects in the generation set may be locked by another user or process, preventing the generation from completing.
  Transport Issues: If the objects are part of a transport request, there may be issues with the transport itself, such as missing objects or inconsistencies.
  System Configuration: There may be configuration issues in the SAP system that prevent the generation process from completing.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the TSGEN020 error, you can take the following steps:

  Check Transport Requests: If the objects are part of a transport request, ensure that the transport is correctly configured and that all necessary objects are included. You can use transaction code SE09 or SE10 to check transport requests.
