  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Message:
  WSS204 Service end point '&1' for WS Security logon was adjusted
  
  Cause:
  This message is an informational message (not an error) generated by the SAP Web Services Security (WS Security) framework. It indicates that the service endpoint URL for the WS Security logon was automatically adjusted or corrected by the system.
  This adjustment typically happens when the originally configured endpoint URL for the WS Security logon service is not in the expected format or contains parameters that need to be normalized or corrected for the WS Security framework to work properly.
  Common causes include:
  
  The endpoint URL configured in the system or in the WS Security configuration contains extra parameters or is not aligned with the expected URL format.
  Changes in the system landscape or service definitions that require the endpoint URL to be updated.
  The system automatically adjusts the URL to ensure compatibility with the WS Security logon process.
  
  
  Solution:
  Since this is an informational message, it usually does not require any corrective action unless you observe related failures in WS Security logon or web service calls.
  However, to ensure smooth operation:
  
  Check the configured endpoint URL for the WS Security logon service in your system (e.g., in SOAMANAGER or the relevant configuration transaction).
  Verify the URL format and remove any unnecessary parameters or inconsistencies.
  If you have custom configurations or proxies, ensure they are updated to reflect the adjusted endpoint.
  If the message appears frequently and is accompanied by errors, consider:
  
  Reviewing the WS Security configuration.
  Checking for recent changes in the system or network that might affect the endpoint.
  Consulting SAP Notes or support for any known issues related to your SAP version.
