• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_BSP_LAYOUT061 - Root &1 contains screen groups (SCGR) and other fields simultaneously ?

  The SAP error message CRM_BSP_LAYOUT061 indicates that there is a conflict in the layout configuration of a Business Server Page (BSP) application. Specifically, it states that a root element (Root &1) contains both screen groups (SCGR) and other fields at the same time, which is not allowed.
  Cause:
  This error typically arises when the layout definition for a BSP application is incorrectly configured. The root element in the layout is expected to contain either screen groups or other fields, but not both simultaneously. This can happen due to:
  
  Incorrect Layout Configuration: The BSP application layout might have been designed or modified incorrectly, leading to a mix of screen groups and other fields in the same root element.
  Development Errors: If custom development has been done on the BSP application, it may have introduced this conflict.
  Transport Issues: If the BSP application was transported from one system to another, there might have been issues during the transport that led to this inconsistency.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Review the Layout Configuration:
  
  Open the BSP application in the SAP Web Application Designer.
  Check the layout definition for the root element. Ensure that it contains either screen groups or other fields, but not both.
  
  
  
  Modify the Layout:
  
  If you find that both screen groups and other fields are present, you will need to modify the layout to separate them. You can either:
  
  Remove the conflicting fields or screen groups.
  Create separate root elements for screen groups and other fields.
  
  
  
  
  
  Test the Changes:
  
  After making the necessary changes, save the layout and test the BSP application to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
  
  
  
  Check for Custom Code:
  
  If there is custom code associated with the BSP application, review it to ensure that it does not inadvertently introduce this conflict.
  
  
  
  Transport Considerations:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, consider rechecking the transport logs and the source system to ensure that the layout was correctly defined before transport.
