  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CH319 - The selected field "&" already occurs in field set "&" ?

    The SAP error message CH319 indicates that there is an attempt to add a field to a field set that already contains that field. This typically occurs in the context of customizing or configuring SAP applications, particularly when dealing with field sets in transaction codes related to configuration or data modeling.

    Cause:

    The error occurs when:

    • You are trying to include a field in a field set that has already been included.
    • There is a duplicate entry in the field set configuration.
    • The field set is being modified incorrectly, leading to redundancy.

    Solution:

    To resolve the CH319 error, you can follow these steps:

    1. Check Field Set Configuration:

      • Go to the transaction where you are configuring the field set (e.g., transaction codes like SE11, SE80, or specific customizing transactions).
      • Review the field set to see if the field you are trying to add is already present.
    2. Remove Duplicate Field:

      • If the field is already included in the field set, you do not need to add it again. Remove any duplicate entries if they exist.
    3. Modify Field Set:

      • If you need to change the field set, ensure that you are not trying to add the same field multiple times. Make the necessary adjustments to include only unique fields.
    4. Transport Requests:

      • If you are working in a development environment and plan to transport changes to a production environment, ensure that the transport requests do not contain conflicting changes.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Review SAP documentation or help files related to the specific module or transaction you are working with for additional guidance on field sets.
    6. Check for Custom Code:

      • If there is custom code involved, ensure that it is not inadvertently causing the duplication of fields in the field set.

    Related Information:

    • Field Sets: Field sets are used in SAP to group fields together for various purposes, such as screen layouts or data processing.
    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes that deal with field sets, such as SE11 (Data Dictionary), SE80 (Object Navigator), or specific customizing transactions for your module.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the error message CH319, as there may be updates or fixes provided by SAP.
