• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZ404 - You cannot implement an inherited event at this point ?

  SAP Error Message:

  Cause:
  This error occurs in the context of Workflow (SAP Business Workflow) when you try to implement (define) an event in a workflow container or workflow definition that is inherited from a superclass or a parent workflow. In SAP Workflow, events that are inherited from a superclass or a parent workflow cannot be re-implemented or redefined in the subclass or child workflow at the same point.

  When you try to implement an event in the child workflow that is already implemented in the parent workflow.
