  Cause:
  
  
  Node State: The error usually indicates that the node you are trying to expand is either already expanded or is in a state that does not allow further expansion. This can happen if:
  
  The node has no child nodes to expand.
  The node is already fully expanded, and you are attempting to expand it again.

  User Permissions: Ensure that your user account has the necessary permissions to access and expand the node. If you suspect permission issues, consult with your SAP administrator.
