  Solution:
  
  Check Toolbar Configuration: Review the configuration of the toolbar in the relevant SAP application. Ensure that all separators are followed by valid toolbar items (buttons, dropdowns, etc.).
  Remove or Adjust Separators: If a separator is not needed, consider removing it. If it is necessary, ensure that there are items following it.
  Modify the UI Configuration: If you have access to the UI configuration settings, you can modify the toolbar settings to correct the issue. This may involve using transaction codes like SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE41 (Menu Painter) to adjust the toolbar settings.
