• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /CPD/CL_MSG202 - You cannot assign this role to more than one member ?

  The SAP error message /CPD/CL_MSG202 indicates that you are trying to assign a role to multiple members in a way that is not allowed by the system's configuration. This typically occurs in the context of role management within SAP, particularly in the areas of user access and authorization management.
  
  Cause:
  
  Role Assignment Limitation: The error arises because the role you are trying to assign is configured to allow only a single assignment to a member. This is often the case for roles that are meant to be unique or have specific constraints.
  Configuration Settings: The system may have been configured to restrict the assignment of certain roles to ensure compliance with security policies or to prevent conflicts in access rights.

  Solution:
  
  Check Current Assignments: Verify if the role is already assigned to another member.
