  SAP Error Message: WXP174 - No changes were made
  
  Cause:
  The message "No changes were made" typically occurs in SAP Web Dynpro applications or when working with Web Dynpro components, especially during configuration or modification of Web Dynpro components or applications.
  This message indicates that the system detected that the user attempted to save or apply changes, but no actual modifications were made to the data or configuration. In other words, the system compared the current state with the previous state and found no differences, so it did not perform any update or save operation.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  User opened a Web Dynpro configuration or customizing screen.
  User pressed "Save" or "Apply" without changing any values.
  The system checks for changes and finds none.
  The system issues the message WXP174 to inform the user that no update was necessary.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Verify if changes are actually needed: Before saving, ensure that you have made the intended changes.
  Make a change: Modify at least one field or setting to trigger an update.
  Ignore if intentional: If you did not intend to make changes, this message is informational and can be safely ignored.
  Check for UI issues: Sometimes, UI elements may not register changes properly due to frontend issues. Refresh the screen or restart the session.
  Check for authorization: In rare cases, lack of authorization might prevent changes from being saved, but usually, this triggers a different error.
  Debug if necessary: If you believe changes were made but the system does not detect them, debugging the Web Dynpro component or checking the backend logic might be necessary.
