  The SAP error message RSWADMDERR1251 typically occurs in the context of SAP Web Application Designer (WAD) when there is an issue with the structure of a Web template, particularly with the way web items are organized within tab pages.
  Cause:
  The error message indicates that a web item (identified as &1) is referenced in a tab page (&2), but it is not a direct child (or node) of that tab page. This can happen due to:

  Solution:

  Check the Hierarchy: Open the Web Application Designer and navigate to the tab page (&2) where the error is reported. Ensure that the web item (&1) is indeed a direct child of this tab page.

  Review References: If the web item is intended to be part of a different tab page, update the references accordingly. Ensure that all web items are correctly linked to their respective parent nodes.
  
  
  Save and Test: After making the necessary adjustments, save the changes and test the web template to ensure that the error no longer appears.
