  The SAP error message CTS_ORGANIZER_MSG078 indicates that there are duplicate entries for a specific attribute and value combination in the Change and Transport System (CTS) Organizer. This typically occurs when you are trying to save changes in the transport request, and the system detects that the same attribute and value pair already exists.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the presence of duplicate entries in the transport request or the CTS Organizer. This can happen due to:
  
  Manual entry of the same attribute and value multiple times.
  System-generated entries that are not unique.
  Issues during the transport of objects that lead to duplicates being created.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify Duplicates:
  
  Review the transport request or the relevant configuration in the CTS Organizer to identify where the duplicates are occurring. Look for the specific attribute and value mentioned in the error message.
  
  
  
  Remove Duplicates:

  Editing the transport request and deleting the duplicate entries manually.

  Check for Consistency:
  
  After removing duplicates, ensure that the remaining entries are consistent and valid. Validate that the transport request is correctly configured.
  
  
  
  Save Changes:
