What causes this issue?

Investment type BVV (supplementary insurance for bank employees)
normally only uses one module per scale name.
However, a module with scale name &V1& already exists (line &V4&: module
&V3&).

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

System Response

The entry of the second module, &V2&, is allowed. When the notifications
are created with report RPCSVDD1, however, two notifications with the
same scale name are created.

How to fix this error?

Check whether you have to split the scale contribution into two partial
contributions. If necessary, delete the additional line for module &V2&.
