• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 34205 - Fact &1 confirmed by &2 ?

  The SAP error message "34205: Fact &1 confirmed by &2" typically occurs in the context of inventory management or production planning within the SAP system. This error indicates that there is a conflict or inconsistency related to the confirmation of a fact (such as a production order or inventory movement) that has already been confirmed by another user or process.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Confirmations: The error often arises when multiple users or processes attempt to confirm the same fact simultaneously.
  Data Locking: SAP uses locking mechanisms to prevent data inconsistencies. If one user is processing a confirmation, another user trying to confirm the same fact will encounter this error.
  System Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the system that lead to improper handling of confirmations.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check for Concurrent Processes: Verify if another user or process is currently confirming the same fact. If so, wait for that process to complete before attempting to confirm again.
  Review Lock Entries: Use transaction code SM12 to check for lock entries related to the fact in question. If you find any unnecessary locks, you may need to delete them (with caution and proper authorization).
  Reconfirm the Fact: After ensuring that no other processes are conflicting, try to confirm the fact again.
  System Configuration Review: If the issue persists, it may be necessary to review the system configuration or consult with your SAP Basis or technical team to ensure that the system is set up correctly for handling confirmations.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant notes or patches that may address this specific error message.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as CO11N (for production order confirmations) or MB1A (for goods movements) depending on the context of the error.
  User Authorizations: Ensure that users have the necessary authorizations to perform confirmations, as lack of permissions can sometimes lead to unexpected errors.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community or forums for additional insights and experiences from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  
  If the problem continues after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to escalate the issue to your SAP support team for further investigation.
