• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BDDISTMODEL079 - Duplicate object use for sender &1 and receiver &2 ?

  The SAP error message BDDISTMODEL079 indicates that there is a duplicate object being used for both the sender and receiver in a distribution model. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Business Data Distribution (BDD) framework, which is used for managing the distribution of data between different systems or organizational units.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  The same object (e.g., a business partner, material, or customer) is assigned as both the sender and receiver in the distribution model.
  This can happen due to incorrect configuration or setup in the distribution model, where the same logical system or object is mistakenly defined for both roles.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Distribution Model Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code BD64 (Change Distribution Model).
  Review the distribution model entries to identify where the duplicate object is defined for both sender and receiver.
