  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ADMI_CRIT_ABA002 - Object &1 already exists in table &2 (no insert possible) ?

    The SAP error message ADMI_CRIT_ABA002 indicates that there is an attempt to insert a record into a database table where a record with the same key already exists. This is a critical error that prevents the insertion of duplicate entries in the specified table.

    Cause:

    The error occurs when:

    • You are trying to insert a new entry into a table, but an entry with the same key (primary key or unique constraint) already exists.
    • This can happen during data uploads, migrations, or when executing certain transactions that involve creating new records.

    Solution:

    To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check Existing Records:

      • Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to check the contents of the table specified in the error message. Look for the record with the key that is causing the conflict.
    2. Identify Duplicates:

      • If you are performing a bulk upload or data migration, ensure that the data being uploaded does not contain duplicates. You may need to clean or preprocess your data to remove duplicates before attempting the insert again.
    3. Modify the Insert Logic:

      • If applicable, modify your logic to handle existing records. For example, you could implement an "upsert" operation (update if exists, insert if not) instead of a simple insert.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • Review the documentation for the specific table and its constraints to understand the unique keys and how they are defined.
    5. Error Handling:

      • Implement error handling in your code to catch this specific error and take appropriate action, such as logging the error or notifying the user.
