  The SAP error message XSLT_TOOL039 typically indicates that the specified XSLT transformation does not exist in the system. This error can occur in various contexts, such as when trying to execute an XSLT transformation that has not been defined or is not accessible in the current environment.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Transformation: The XSLT transformation you are trying to use has not been created or is not available in the system.
  Incorrect Name: The name of the transformation might be misspelled or incorrectly referenced in the code.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the transformation may not have the necessary authorizations to access the transformation.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Transformation Existence:

  Ensure that the name of the transformation is correct.
  
  
  
  Create or Import Transformation:
