  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WD361 Template &1 does not exist in version &2 - Workflow Builder is ended
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in the SAP Web Dynpro environment, specifically when working with the Workflow Builder or Web Dynpro applications. The system is trying to access a Web Dynpro component template (view or window) identified by &1 in a specific version &2, but it cannot find it.
  Common reasons include:
  
  The template (view/window/component) has not been created or activated in the specified version.
  The version specified (&2) does not exist or is incorrect.
  The template was deleted or renamed.
  There is a mismatch between the version of the Web Dynpro component and the version expected by the workflow or application.
  Transport or system inconsistencies where the template exists in one system but not in another.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Template Existence:
  
  Go to the Web Dynpro component repository (transaction SE80 or SE84).
  Navigate to the component and check if the template (view/window) &1 exists.
  Verify the version &2 is correct and active.
  
  
  
  Activate the Template:
  
  If the template exists but is inactive, activate it.
  Sometimes, reactivation of the entire Web Dynpro component helps.
  
  
  
  Check Version Consistency:
  
  Ensure that the version of the Web Dynpro component used in the workflow or application matches the version where the template exists.
  If you are using a custom version, verify that it is transported and available in the system.
  
  
  
  Transport and System Check:
  
  If the error occurs after a transport, verify that the transport included the template and version.
  Check if the system where the error occurs has the necessary objects imported.
  
  
  
  Adjust Workflow or Application:
  
  If the workflow or application references a non-existing template version, update it to reference the correct version.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  Use debugging tools to trace where the template is called.
  Check the call stack to identify the exact point of failure.
