How To Fix PEP231 - Nodes with NODE_ID &1 and &2 both occur at end of task group sequence

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: PEP - Schedule Manager: Messages

• Message number: 231

• Message text: Nodes with NODE_ID &1 and &2 both occur at end of task group sequence

What causes this issue?

One of the task groups has more than one final task. This is not
possible.
Technical information: All tasks with the same task group are connected
to one another in a chain. The content of the
NSIBLING_ID field refers to the
NODE_ID node of the next task in the chain.
Since this chain can logically only end with
one task, it follows that only one task in a task group (the task at the
end of the chain) can have an empty NSIBLING_ID field. If there is more
than one field with an empty NSIBLING_ID field, the task list is faulty.

  The SAP error message PEP231 indicates that there is an issue with the task group sequence in the Project Management (PS) module, specifically related to the nodes defined in a task group. The error message states that two nodes with the specified NODE_IDs both occur at the end of the task group sequence, which is not allowed.
  
  Cause:
  This error typically arises when:
  
  Duplicate End Nodes: Two nodes are defined as end nodes in the task group sequence, which violates the expected structure of a task group. In a valid sequence, there should only be one end node.
