• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/CONF226 - Group node must not be hierarchically lower than assigned validations ?

  The SAP error message /BOBF/CONF226 Group node must not be hierarchically lower than assigned validations typically occurs in the context of the Business Object Processing Framework (BOPF) in SAP. This error indicates that there is a configuration issue with the validation rules assigned to a group node in your BOPF model.

  Incorrect Configuration: This can happen if the BOPF model was not configured correctly, such as when a developer or administrator inadvertently assigns validations to a node that is not at the correct level in the hierarchy.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Review BOPF Model: Check the hierarchical structure of your BOPF model. Ensure
