• Message number: 230

• Message text: Node to be repeated is not a predecessor of the recursion node

What causes this issue?

You want to assign a recurrence node to a recursion node.
This node must be on the path from the root node to the recursion node.
This means it must be its direct or indirect predecessor.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWDP_WB_TOOL230 - Node to be repeated is not a predecessor of the recursion node ?

  The SAP error message SWDP_WB_TOOL230 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a Web Dynpro application, specifically related to the node structure in the context of a recursive node. This error typically arises when you are trying to set up a recursive relationship in a Web Dynpro component, but the node you are trying to repeat is not correctly defined as a predecessor of the recursion node.
  
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Node Configuration: The node that you are trying to repeat is not properly set as a predecessor of the recursion node. In a recursive structure, the parent-child relationship must be correctly established.
  Modeling Errors: There may be errors in the way the data model is defined, such as incorrect associations or cardinalities.
  Hierarchy Issues: If you are working with hierarchical data, the hierarchy may not be correctly defined, leading to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Node Relationships:
  
  Open the Web Dynpro component in the Web Dynpro
