  The SAP error message R1318 indicates that there is an issue with a field group that is not properly assigned to a view in the context of an application object. This typically occurs in the context of SAP ABAP programming or when working with SAP GUI screens.
  Cause:
  The error message R1318 is triggered when:
  
  A field group (which is a collection of fields) is defined but not assigned to any view.

  Solution:
  To resolve the R1318 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Field Group Definition:
