• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_EHHSS_SEG_COMMON001 - SEG name &1 in language &2 is not unique ?

  The SAP error message CM_EHHSS_SEG_COMMON001 indicates that there is a problem with the uniqueness of a segment name in the system. This error typically arises in the context of the Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module, where segment names must be unique for proper identification and processing.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  There are multiple entries in the database with the same segment name (&1) for the specified language (&2).
  The system is trying to create or access a segment, but it finds more than one entry that matches the criteria, leading to ambiguity.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check for Duplicates:
  
  Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to check the relevant database table for duplicate entries. The specific table may vary based on your configuration, but it often relates to segment definitions in EHS.
  
  
  
  Identify the Duplicates:
  
  Query the table to find all entries with the same segment name and language. You can use SQL-like queries to filter the results.
  
  
  
  Resolve the Duplicates:
  
  Once you identify the duplicates, you can either:
  
  Delete the unnecessary duplicates if they are not needed.
  Modify the segment names to ensure uniqueness.
  If the duplicates are required for some reason, consider renaming them to avoid conflicts.
  
  
  
  
  
  Check Custom Developments:
  
  If you have custom developments or enhancements, ensure that they are not inadvertently creating duplicate entries.
  
  
  
  Transport Requests:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check if the transport included duplicate entries. You may need to adjust the transport request.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the EHS module for any specific guidelines on segment naming conventions.
