• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SRAL304 - Field '&1' is already covered by generic path '&2' in Log Group '&3' ?

  The SAP error message SRAL304 indicates that there is a conflict in the configuration of log groups, specifically that a field is already covered by a more generic path in the log group. This typically occurs in the context of logging or auditing configurations where multiple paths or fields are defined, and there is an overlap that causes ambiguity.
  
  Cause:
  
  Overlapping Definitions: The field specified in the error message (&1) is defined in a way that it overlaps with a more generic path (&2) in the same log group (&3). This can happen if the same field is included in multiple paths or if a more specific path is defined after a more generic one.

  Solution:
  
  Review Log Group Configuration: Check the configuration of the log group specified in the error message. Look
