  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_APC681 – "You can only copy PL items that originate from layout workbench"
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you attempt to copy a Planning Layout (PL) item that was not originally created or maintained using the Layout Workbench. The system restricts copying of PL items to only those that have been created or modified via the Layout Workbench tool.
  In other words, if the PL item was created through other means (e.g., manually or via a different tool), the system does not allow copying it using the standard copy function in the Layout Workbench.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Planning Layout (PL) items are used in SAP to define the layout of planning screens, reports, or data entry forms.
  The Layout Workbench is the SAP tool used to create and maintain these layouts.
  The system tracks the origin of PL items, and only those created or maintained in the Layout Workbench can be copied using its copy functionality.
