• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WG349 - General Customizing setting missing for auto. load building ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WG349 - General Customizing setting missing for auto. load building
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when the system tries to perform an automatic load building (e.g., during transportation or client copy activities involving Workbench Organizer or CTS) but cannot find the necessary general customizing settings. Specifically, the system expects certain customizing entries that define how objects are grouped and loaded automatically, but these settings are missing or incomplete.
  In other words, the system lacks the configuration that tells it how to handle automatic load building for the given object or transport scenario.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The error is related to the Workbench Organizer and Transport Management System (TMS).
  Automatic load building is a process where the system automatically creates transport requests or load sequences based on customizing.
  The customizing settings define how objects are grouped, which transport layers are involved, and how the load is structured.
  If these settings are missing, the system cannot proceed with automatic load building, hence the error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check and Maintain General Customizing Settings:
  
  
  Go to transaction SPRO (SAP Reference IMG).
  
  
  Navigate to the following path (depending on your SAP version, the path might slightly differ):
  SAP Customizing Implementation Guide
    -> Cross-Application Components
      -> Transport Management System
        -> Workbench Organizer
          -> General Settings
            -> Define General Customizing Settings for Automatic Load Building
  
  
  Ensure that the required entries are maintained here. This includes defining the load building rules, transport layers, and object types.
  
  
  
  
  Verify Transport Layers and Object Types:
  
  Check if the transport layers and object types involved in your transport or load building process are properly configured.
  Missing or incorrect transport layer assignments can cause this error.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Routes and Configuration:
  
  Use transaction STMS to verify transport routes and configuration.
  Ensure that the transport routes are correctly set up and active.
  
  
  
  Review OSS Notes:
  
  Sometimes, SAP releases notes or patches related to this error.
  Search the SAP Support Portal for OSS Notes related to message WG349.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After maintaining the customizing, try to perform the automatic load building again.
  If the error persists, check the detailed logs or dumps for more information.

  Summary:
  The error WG349 indicates missing general customizing settings required for automatic load building in the transport system. To resolve it, you need to maintain the relevant customizing entries in SPRO under the Transport Management System settings, ensuring that the system knows how to handle automatic load building for your objects and transport layers.
