  The SAP error message FDT_CORE2002 indicates that a text symbol (a piece of text that is defined in the SAP system for use in various programs) could not be found in a specified program for a given language. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Fiori or SAP UI5 applications, where text symbols are used for localization and internationalization.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Text Symbol: The text symbol identified by &1 is not defined in the program &2 for the specified language &3.
  Incorrect Language Settings: The language settings in the user profile or the application might not match the available text symbols.
  Transport Issues: If the program was recently transported from one system to another, the text symbols may not have been included in the transport.
  Development Issues: The developer may have referenced a text symbol that was not created or was deleted.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Text Symbols: 
  
  Go to transaction SE63 (Translation) or SE80 (Object Navigator) and check if the text symbol exists for the specified program and language.
  If it does not exist, you may need to create it or correct the reference in the program.
  
  
  
  Verify Language Settings:
  
  Ensure that the user’s language settings are correct. You can check this in the user profile settings (transaction SU01).
