• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRTL004 - No transport will take place ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRTL004 - No transport will take place
  
  Cause:
  The error message WRTL004 typically occurs during the transport process in SAP when the system determines that there is no actual data or objects to be transported. This can happen if:
  
  The transport request is empty (no objects or changes included).
  The objects in the transport request are not relevant for the current system or transport layer.
  The transport request has already been imported or released without any changes.
  The transport request is incorrectly created or corrupted.
  
  In essence, the transport tool finds nothing to move, so it stops the process and issues this message.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the WRTL004 error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Transport Request Content:
  
  Use transaction SE01 or SE09 to inspect the transport request.
  Verify that the request contains objects or changes.
  If the request is empty, no transport will occur.
  
  
  
  Verify Transport Request Status:
  
  Ensure the transport request is released properly.
  If the request is not released, release it and try again.
  
  
  
  Check Object Relevance:
  
  Confirm that the objects in the transport request are valid and relevant for the target system.
  Sometimes, objects may be client-specific or system-specific and not transportable.
  
  
  
  Create a New Transport Request:
  
  If the current request is empty or corrupted, create a new transport request and include the necessary objects.
  Transport the new request instead.
  
  
  
  Review Transport Layer and Configuration:
  
  Ensure the transport layer and routes are correctly configured.
  Incorrect configuration might cause the system to ignore the transport request.
  
  
  
  Check Logs and STMS:
  
  Use transaction STMS to monitor the transport queue and logs.
  Look for additional messages or errors that might provide more context.

  SAP Notes:
  
  Check SAP Notes related to transport issues if the problem persists.
  Sometimes, specific kernel or system patches address transport-related bugs.
  
  
  
  Transport Request Types:
  
  Workbench requests (for repository objects).
  Customizing requests (for configuration changes).
  Ensure the correct type is used for the objects being transported.
  
  
  
  
  Summary:
  WRTL004 - No transport will take place means the transport request is empty or contains no valid objects to transport. Verify the content and status of the transport request, ensure proper release, and confirm the relevance of objects. If necessary, create a new transport request with the required objects and transport again.
