    The SAP error message EI171 "Last item reached!" typically occurs in the context of processing a list of items, such as during the execution of a report or transaction that involves navigating through a list of entries. This message indicates that the user has reached the end of the list and there are no more items to process or display.

    Cause:

    1. End of List: The most straightforward cause is that the user has navigated to the last item in a list, and there are no additional items to display or process.

    Solution:

    1. Check Navigation: Ensure that you are not trying to navigate beyond the last item. If you are on the last item, you can either go back to the previous item or exit the list.
