  The SAP error message WOST_WSTI_MLT_HI005 indicates that a document (in this case, a work order or similar document) has already been completely counted, meaning that the system recognizes that all necessary counting or inventory processes for that document have been finalized. This error typically arises in the context of inventory management or work order processing.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Counting Attempt: The most common cause of this error is an attempt to count the same document multiple times. If the document has already been processed and marked as completely counted, any further attempts to count it will trigger this error.
  System Configuration: There may be specific configurations or settings in the SAP system that prevent re-counting of documents that have already been finalized.
  User Error: Users may inadvertently try to process the same document again without realizing it has already been completed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Document Status: Verify the status of the document in question. If it has already been counted, you may not need to perform any further actions.
  Review Counting Records: Look into the counting records to confirm that the document has indeed been counted completely. This can usually be done through transaction codes related to inventory management or work order processing.
  Avoid Duplicate Processing: Ensure that users are aware of the status of documents to prevent duplicate counting attempts. Training or guidelines may be necessary to avoid confusion.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific instructions on handling counting processes and understanding document statuses.
  System Configuration Review: If the issue persists and seems to be related to system settings, consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team to review the settings related to document counting.
