  The SAP error message EDESK_UI_WD085: Check-in is not allowed on this level typically occurs in the context of SAP's Document Management System (DMS) or when working with the SAP Engineering Control Center (ECTR). This error indicates that the system is preventing a check-in operation because the current level or context does not permit it.
  Causes:
  
  Incorrect Document Status: The document you are trying to check in may not be in a status that allows check-in. For example, it might be in a "released" state or another status that restricts modifications.
  Hierarchy Level Restrictions: The check-in operation may be restricted at the current hierarchy level. For instance, if you are trying to check in a document at a sub-level where check-ins are not allowed.
  User Permissions: The user may not have the necessary permissions to perform a check-in at the specified level.
  Configuration Settings: There may be specific configuration settings in the DMS or ECTR that restrict check-ins based on certain criteria.
  
  Solutions:

  User Permissions: Check the user roles and permissions to ensure that you have the rights to perform a check-in operation. If not, contact your system administrator to adjust your permissions.
  Consult Configuration Settings: If you have access to the configuration settings, review them to see if there are any restrictions in place that could be causing this error. Adjust settings as necessary, or consult with your SAP Basis or DMS administrator for assistance.
