  The SAP error message RLB036, which indicates "Recursive nesting of sublibraries exists," typically occurs in the context of SAP's ABAP programming environment. This error arises when there is a recursive reference in the library structure, meaning that a sublibrary is trying to reference itself directly or indirectly, leading to an infinite loop.
  
  Cause:
  
  Recursive Library References: The most common cause of this error is that a library (or sublibrary) is defined in such a way that it references itself, either directly or through a chain of other libraries.
  Incorrect Configuration: Misconfiguration in the library settings or incorrect definitions in the ABAP program can lead to this issue.
  Circular Dependencies: If two or more libraries reference each other in a circular manner, it can also trigger this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Library Definitions: Review the definitions of the libraries involved. Ensure that no library is referencing itself directly or indirectly.
  Remove Circular References: If you find circular dependencies, restructure
