• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWDP_WB_TOOL445 - Parent node of context attribute "&1" has incorrect cardinality ?

  The SAP error message SWDP_WB_TOOL445, which states that the "Parent node of context attribute '&1' has incorrect cardinality," typically occurs in the context of SAP Web Dynpro applications. This error is related to the data model defined in the Web Dynpro component, particularly concerning the context nodes and their cardinality settings.
  
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a mismatch in the expected cardinality of a context node in the Web Dynpro application. Cardinality defines how many instances of a node can exist in relation to its parent node. The common cardinality settings are:
  
  0..1: Zero or one instance is allowed.
  1..1: Exactly one instance is required.
  0..n: Zero or more instances are allowed.
  1..n: One or more instances are required.
  
  If the parent node's cardinality does not match the child node's cardinality, this error will be triggered. For example, if a child node is defined to allow multiple instances (1..n) but its parent is defined to allow
