• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_10993_MSG190 - Object already exists &1 ?

  The SAP error message CNV_10993_MSG190 with the description "Object already exists &1" typically occurs during data migration or conversion processes, particularly when using SAP's Data Migration tools or during the execution of a conversion project. This error indicates that the system is trying to create an object (like a master data record, configuration object, etc.) that already exists in the target system.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Entries: The most common cause is that the object you are trying to create already exists in the target system. This could be due to previous migration attempts or manual entries.
  Incorrect Mapping: If the mapping of source data to target objects is not correctly defined, it may lead to attempts to create objects that are already present.
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data being migrated, leading to conflicts with existing records.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Existing Objects: Before running the migration, check the target system for existing objects that match the ones you are trying to create. You can use transaction codes relevant to the object type to verify their existence.
  Adjust Migration Data: If duplicates are found, you may need to adjust your migration data to either skip these entries or update them instead of creating new ones.
  Modify Mapping: Review and modify the mapping configuration to ensure that it correctly reflects the relationships and existing data in the target system.
  Use Update Instead of Create: If the intention is to update existing records, ensure that the migration process is set to update rather than create new entries.
  Log Analysis: Check the logs generated during the migration process for more detailed information about the error and the specific object that is causing the issue.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes (like SE11 for data dictionary, SE16 for table display) to check for existing records.
  SAP Notes: Look for SAP Notes related to the specific migration tool or process you are using, as they may provide additional insights or patches.
  Documentation: Review the documentation for the specific migration tool or process you are using, as it may contain guidelines on handling such errors.
  Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with an SAP expert who specializes in data migration.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the CNV_10993_MSG190 error and successfully complete your data migration or conversion process.
