LRM_BS004 - Details

• The SAP error message LRM_BS004 with the description "Field position &1 already being used" typically occurs in the context of data entry or configuration in SAP, particularly when dealing with field positions in a screen or a data structure. This error indicates that the specified field position (denoted by &1) is already occupied by another field, which leads to a conflict.
  
  Cause:
  
  Field Position Conflict: The primary cause of this error is that the field position you are trying to assign to a new field is already assigned to another field. In SAP, each field on a screen or in a data structure must have a unique position.
  Screen Layout Configuration: This can happen during the configuration of screen layouts, where multiple fields are inadvertently assigned the same position.
  Custom Development: If there are custom developments or modifications in the SAP system, they might lead to overlapping field positions.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Field Assignments: Review the screen
