• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXPB210 - Old lead column settings for user &1 have been deleted ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WXPB210 Old lead column settings for user &1 have been deleted
  
  Cause:
  This message occurs when the system detects that the old column layout settings (lead column settings) for a user in a particular SAP GUI or Web Dynpro application have been deleted or are no longer available.
  
  Lead column settings refer to the saved layout or personalization settings for table columns (such as column order, visibility, width) that a user has customized.
  These settings are stored in the user-specific personalization data.
  If these settings are deleted manually (e.g., via user settings reset, profile deletion, or system cleanup) or become inconsistent due to system upgrades or data corruption, the system issues this message.
  
  
  When does it occur?
  
  When a user opens a transaction or application that tries to load previously saved column layout settings.
  The system tries to retrieve the old settings but finds none or finds that they have been deleted.
  This is an informational message indicating that the old settings are no longer available and the system will use default settings instead.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  No critical error: This message is usually informational and does not indicate a system error.
  The system will revert to default column settings for the user.
  If the user wants to restore or customize the layout again, they can manually adjust the column settings and save them.
  If the message appears frequently or causes issues, consider:
  
  Checking if user personalization data is being deleted or cleaned up by system jobs or admin actions.
  Ensuring that user profiles and personalization data are intact.
  Advising users to save their layouts again after system upgrades or maintenance.
