  Modify Existing Object Group:
  
  If you intended to modify an existing object group rather than create a new one, navigate to the existing object group and make the necessary changes instead of creating a new one.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidelines on naming conventions and best practices for managing object groups.
  
  
  
  Check for System Issues:
