• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMU/UI_GSS005 - Selected element is already the last element in this node ?

  The SAP error message /PLMU/UI_GSS005 Selected element is already the last element in this node typically occurs in the context of the SAP PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) module, particularly when working with graphical user interfaces or navigating through lists of elements.
  Cause:
  This error message indicates that the user is trying to perform an action (such as moving to the next element or navigating) on an element that is already the last one in the current node or list. This can happen in various scenarios, such as:
  
  Attempting to navigate to the next item when you are already at the end of a list.
  Trying to perform an operation that requires moving to a subsequent element when there are no more elements available.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Current Position: Ensure that you are not trying to navigate beyond the last element. If you are at the last element, you cannot move forward.
  
  
  Use Navigation Buttons Correctly: If you are using navigation buttons (like "Next" or "Previous"), make sure you are using them appropriately. If you are at the last element, the "Next" button should not be clickable.
  
  
  Refresh the List: Sometimes, refreshing the list or the screen can help. This can be done by using the refresh button or reloading the transaction.
  
  
  Review the Data: Ensure that the data you are working with is correct and that there are indeed more elements to navigate to. If the list is supposed to have more items, check if there are any filters applied that might be limiting the view.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If the issue persists, refer to SAP documentation or help resources specific to the PLM module for further guidance.
