  SAP Message: WPS01102
  Text:
  
  Operation &2 for subordinate task list &3 with ext. ID &4 was inserted.
  
  1. Cause
  This message is an informational message (not an error or warning) generated during the processing of task lists in SAP Plant Maintenance (PM) or Production Planning (PP) modules.
  
  It occurs when an operation is inserted into a subordinate task list (a task list that is assigned as a component or sub-operation to a higher-level task list).
  The system informs you that the operation with number &2 has been successfully inserted into the subordinate task list identified by &3 (task list group) and external ID &4 (task list group counter or version).
  
  This typically happens during:
  
  Task list creation or change.
  When a task list is copied or updated.
  When operations are added to a subordinate task list as part of a multi-level task list structure.
  
  
  2. Solution
  Since this is an informational message, no corrective action is required if the insertion of the operation was intended.
  Recommended steps:
  
  Verify the task list: Check the subordinate task list &3 with external ID &4 to confirm that the operation &2 has been correctly inserted.
  Check consistency: Ensure that the operation fits logically into the subordinate task list and that all dependencies and parameters are correct.
  Proceed with further processing: You can continue with your task list processing, such as release, scheduling, or assignment to maintenance orders.
  
  If the insertion was not intended or unexpected:
  
  Review the process or program that triggered the insertion.
  Check for any custom enhancements or user exits that might be adding operations automatically.
  Correct the task list manually or adjust the process to prevent unwanted insertions.
  
  
  3. Related Information
