• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message E9159 - Object &1 already displayed ?

  The SAP error message E9159 ("Object &1 already displayed") typically occurs when you attempt to open or display an object (such as a document, report, or transaction) that is already open in the current session or in another session. This is a common issue in SAP systems where multiple users or sessions are trying to access the same object simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Sessions: The object is already being accessed in another session or window.
  User Lock: The object may be locked by another user or session, preventing you from opening it again.
  Technical Limitations: Some objects in SAP have restrictions on how many times they can be opened simultaneously.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Open Sessions: Look for any open sessions or windows where the object might already be displayed. Close the other session if possible.
  Refresh the Session: Sometimes, simply refreshing the session or logging out and back in can resolve the issue.
  Use Transaction Codes: If applicable, use transaction codes to navigate to the object instead of trying to open it directly.
  Wait for Release: If the object is locked by another user, you may need to wait until that user has finished with it.
  Contact Administrator: If the issue persists, contact your SAP system administrator to check for any locks or issues with the object in question.
