The message states that an input help has already been defined for the field in question, which can lead to confusion or conflicts if multiple input helps are defined for the same field.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Input Help Definition: The most common cause of this error is that there are multiple input help definitions for the same field in the context of the application or module you are working with.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the SAP system where the input help is not properly set up or is conflicting with other definitions.
  Custom Development: If there are custom developments or enhancements in the system, they might be interfering with the standard input help.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Input Help Definitions: 
  
  Go to the relevant transaction (like SE11 for Data Dictionary) and check the field definitions for the specific table or structure. Ensure that only one input help is defined for the field.

  Review Custom Code: 
  
  If there are custom programs or enhancements, review the code to see if there are any custom input helps defined for the field. You may need to adjust or remove these to resolve the conflict.
  
  
  
  Use Standard Input Help: 
  
  If you are using a custom input help, consider switching to the standard input help provided by SAP, if applicable.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Check the SAP documentation or notes related to the specific module you are working with for any known issues or recommendations regarding input helps.
  
  
  
  Testing:
