• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS_CWB089 - Test run! Changes not saved, messages not generated. ?

  The SAP error message:
  WS_CWB089: Test run! Changes not saved, messages not generated.
  
  
  Cause:
  This message appears when you execute a transaction or a process in test run mode (also called simulation mode). In this mode, the system simulates the process without actually saving any changes to the database or generating any output messages. It is designed to allow users to check the results of their actions before committing them.
  For example, in workflows, batch input sessions, or certain data transfer tools, you can run a test to verify the process flow and data correctness without making permanent changes.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Test run mode means the system processes the logic but does not update the database.
  No actual changes or messages (like emails, printouts, or IDocs) are created.
  This is intentional behavior to allow validation before execution.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  If you want to actually save changes and generate messages, you need to run the transaction or process without the test run flag
