• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GR149 - The last section is already being displayed ?

  The SAP error message GR149, which states "The last section is already being displayed," typically occurs in the context of the SAP GUI when a user attempts to navigate to a section or screen that is already open or being displayed. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when working with reports, transaction codes, or when using the SAP Easy Access menu.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Navigation: The user is trying to open a section or report that is already open in the SAP GUI.

  User Interface Behavior: The SAP interface may restrict certain actions to avoid confusion or redundancy.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Open Sessions: Look for any open sessions or windows in the SAP GUI. If the section is already open, you can switch to that session instead of trying to open it again.
  Close Duplicate Sessions: If you find that you have multiple sessions open for the same transaction, close the duplicate session.
  Use Navigation Options: Instead of trying to open the same section again, use the navigation options available in the SAP GUI to switch to the already open section.
  Refresh the Screen: Sometimes, simply refreshing the screen or navigating back and forth can resolve the issue.
  Log Out and Log In: If the problem persists, logging out of the SAP system and logging back in can help reset the session state.
