• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SALV_BS_MSG308 - Only one operator is allowed for each filter condition ?

  The SAP error message SALV_BS_MSG308 indicates that there is an issue with the filter conditions applied in an ALV (ABAP List Viewer) report. Specifically, it means that you have used more than one operator in a single filter condition, which is not allowed.
  
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you try to define a filter condition with multiple operators (like AND, OR) in a single condition. For example, if you have a filter condition that looks like this:
  Field1 = 'Value1' AND Field2 = 'Value2'
  This would trigger the error because it combines two conditions with an AND operator in a single filter.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to separate the filter conditions into distinct entries. Instead of combining multiple conditions in one, you should create separate filter conditions for each operator. For example:
  
  Create one filter condition for Field1 = 'Value1'.
  Create another filter condition for Field2 = 'Value2'.
