  The SAP error message FIBL_RPCODE017 indicates that there is unsaved data in the system, and if the user proceeds with the action they are attempting, that unsaved data will be lost. This message typically appears in scenarios where a user is trying to navigate away from a screen or perform an action that would discard any changes made to the current session.
  Cause:
  
  Unsaved Changes: The most common cause of this error is that the user has made changes to a form or data entry screen but has not saved those changes before attempting to navigate away or execute another function.
  Session Timeout: If the session has been idle for a long time, it may prompt this message when trying to perform an action.

  Solution:
  
  Save Your Changes: Before proceeding with any action that could lead to data loss, ensure that you save any changes you have made. Look for a "Save" button or use the keyboard shortcut (usually Ctrl + S) to save your work.
  Review Data: If you are unsure about what data is unsaved, review the fields in the form to identify any that have been modified but not saved.
  Cancel Navigation: If you do not want to lose the unsaved data, cancel the action that triggered the error message and return to the form to save your changes.
  Check for Session Issues: If you suspect that session timeout or multiple sessions are causing the issue, try logging out and back in, or close unnecessary sessions.
