• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_EXPRESSIONS349 - Connector &1 starts at end node &2 ?

  The SAP error message FDT_EXPRESSIONS349 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a connector in the context of the SAP FDT (Form Data Tool) framework. Specifically, the message states that a connector is starting at an end node, which is not valid. This typically occurs when the flow of data or logic in a form or process is incorrectly defined.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Connector Configuration: The connector is set to start from an end node, which means it is trying to initiate a process from a point that should not be the starting point.
  Logical Flow Issues: The logical flow of the form or process may be incorrectly designed, leading to connectors being placed inappropriately.
  Missing Nodes: There may be missing nodes or steps in the process that should precede the connector.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Connector Configuration: Check the configuration of the connector in the FDT. Ensure that it is connected to a valid starting node rather than an end node.
  Adjust Logical Flow: Reassess the logical flow of the form or process. Make sure that all connectors are properly linked to their respective starting points and that the flow is logical and complete.
  Check for Missing Nodes: Ensure that all necessary nodes are present in the process. If any nodes are missing, add them to create a valid flow.
  Test the Configuration: After making adjustments, test the configuration to ensure that the error is resolved and that the process flows correctly.
