  The SAP error message /UI2/RA_PERSIST012 Commit failed typically occurs in the context of the SAP Fiori/UI5 applications when there is an issue with saving data to the database. This error can arise due to various reasons, including data inconsistencies, database locks, or issues with the underlying persistence layer.
  Causes:
  
  Data Inconsistencies: The data being committed may not meet the validation rules defined in the database or application layer.
  Database Locks: Another transaction may be holding a lock on the data being modified, preventing the commit from succeeding.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary permissions to perform the commit operation.
  Network Issues: Temporary network issues can disrupt the communication between the application and the database.
