• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /ISDFPS/FDPSA100 - Drag and drop; source &1 and target &2 are identical ?

  The SAP error message /ISDFPS/FDPSA100 Drag and drop; source &1 and target &2 are identical typically occurs in the context of the SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) or SAP S/4HANA environments when a user attempts to perform a drag-and-drop operation in a planning view or similar interface. This error indicates that the source and target of the drag-and-drop action are the same, which is not a valid operation.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the user trying to move or copy an item (like a planning object, data entry, etc.) to the same location from which it was dragged. This is not allowed because it does not result in any meaningful change to the data or structure.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Source and Target: Ensure that the source and target of your drag-and-drop operation are different. You may need to select a different target location for the item you are trying to move.
  
  
  Use Copy Instead of Move: If your intention is to duplicate the item, consider using a copy function instead of dragging and dropping.
  
  
  Refresh the View: Sometimes, the interface may not update correctly. Refresh the view or navigate away and back to the planning view to ensure that the data is current.
  
  
  Review User Actions: If you are unsure why the error is occurring, review the steps you took leading up to the error. Ensure that you are not inadvertently selecting the same item as both the source and target.
