• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message STC_TASK048 - For radiobutton group &1 too many options are set; choose only one option ?

  The SAP error message STC_TASK048 indicates that there is an issue with a radio button group in a selection screen or a user interface where more than one option has been selected, which is not allowed. Radio buttons are designed to allow the user to select only one option from a set, and if multiple options are selected, this error will occur.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  A radio button group is defined in the code, but the logic allows for multiple selections.
  The user interface is not properly enforcing the single-selection rule for the radio button group.
  There may be a programming error or misconfiguration in the selection screen or the associated logic.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the STC_TASK048 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Radio Button Group Definition:
  
  Ensure that the radio button group is correctly defined in the code. Each radio button in the group should have the same group name.
  
  
  
  Review the Selection Logic:
  
  Verify that the logic controlling the radio button selections is correctly implemented. Ensure that only one radio button can be selected at a time.
  
  
  
  User Interface Validation:
  
  If applicable, add validation logic to the user interface to prevent users from selecting multiple options. This can be done through event handling or validation checks.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  If you have access to the code, use debugging tools to trace the execution and see where the multiple selections are being allowed. Look for any conditions or loops that might be causing this behavior.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, thoroughly test the radio button group to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the user experience is as expected.
