  SAP Error Message:
  W_CB108 Text &1 &2 &3 &4 already exists
  
  Meaning / 
  Cause:
  This warning message indicates that a text entry you are trying to create or save already exists in the system for the specified object or context. The placeholders &1, &2, &3, and &4 represent dynamic values such as the text ID, language, object, or other identifiers related to the text.
  In SAP, texts are often stored with keys like text ID, language, and object number. When you attempt to create a new text with the same combination of these keys that already exists, the system issues this warning to prevent duplicate entries.
  
  Common Scenarios:
  
  Creating or changing master data texts (e.g., material descriptions, vendor texts).
  Maintaining long texts in documents or customizing.
  Uploading or migrating texts where duplicates exist.
  Working with text objects in customizing or development (e.g., message class texts, screen texts).
