  The SAP error message APB_FPM_CORE351 indicates that there is an issue with the width property defined in a configuration or customization of a Floorplan Manager (FPM) application. Specifically, the error states that the valid units for width are PX (pixels) and EM (a relative unit based on the font size), while the percentage unit % is not accepted in this context.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises when:
  
  A developer or configurator has set the width of a UI element using a percentage value (e.g., width: 50%).

  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  Identify the Configuration: Locate the specific UI element or configuration where the width is set using a percentage.
  Change the Unit: Modify the width value to use either PX or EM. For example:
  
  If the original width was set as width: 50%, you could change it to a fixed pixel value like width: 300px or a relative value like width: 20em.
  
  
  Test the Changes: After making the changes, test the application to ensure that the layout appears as expected and that the error no longer occurs.
  
  Related Information:
  
  FPM Documentation: Review the SAP FPM documentation for guidelines on valid CSS units and best practices for UI design.
