• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AM368 - Duplicate check not active (no BAdI implementation) ?

  The SAP error message AM368 "Duplicate check not active (no BAdI implementation)" typically occurs in the context of Asset Accounting (FI-AA) when the system is trying to perform a duplicate check for asset master records, but there is no active implementation of the Business Add-In (BAdI) that would handle this check.
  Cause:
  
  BAdI Not Implemented: The primary cause of this error is that the BAdI for duplicate checks in Asset Accounting is not implemented in the system. The system expects a certain BAdI implementation to be active to perform the duplicate check.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings that are not properly set up, leading to the system not being able to perform the duplicate check.
  Custom Development: If there is a custom development that relies on the duplicate check, and it is not properly implemented, this error can occur.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Implement the BAdI:
  
  You need to implement the BAdI FI_AA_DUPLICATE_CHECK (or a similar BAdI related to asset accounting) in your SAP system.
  To do this, go to transaction SE19 (BAdI Implementation) and create a new implementation for the BAdI. You may need to consult with your ABAP developer or SAP consultant to ensure that the implementation meets your business requirements.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the configuration for asset master data and duplicate checks is correctly set up in the system. This can typically be found in the Asset Accounting configuration settings.
  You can check the configuration in transaction SPRO under the following path:
  Financial Accounting (New) -> Asset Accounting -> Master Data -> Define Duplicate Check
  
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After implementing the BAdI, test the asset creation process to ensure that the duplicate check is functioning as expected.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific BAdI and the error message for any additional guidance or updates.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  BAdI Documentation: You can find more information about the BAdI in the SAP Help Portal or through transaction SE18 (BAdI Definition).
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this issue or provide additional context or fixes.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE19 (BAdI Implementation), SE18 (BAdI Definition), and SPRO (Customizing).
  
  If you are not familiar with implementing BAdIs or making configuration changes, it is advisable to work with an SAP consultant or a technical team member who has experience in Asset Accounting and BAdI implementations.
