  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Node Type: Verify the type of the node (Node ID &2) that is causing the issue. Consult the FDT documentation to understand which node types can have rules and which cannot.

  Reconfigure the Data Model: If the node is incorrectly configured, consider re-evaluating the data model and adjusting the node types or their configurations to align with the intended design.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation or FDT guidelines for more information on node types and their capabilities.
