• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message R1501 - Do not specify any coordinates for the dynpro type "Normal" ?

  The SAP error message R1501, which states "Do not specify any coordinates for the dynpro type 'Normal'," typically occurs when you are working with screen programming in SAP ABAP and you are trying to define a screen (dynpro) that is of type "Normal" but have incorrectly specified coordinates for the screen elements.
