  The SAP error message CRM_SOC_MSG018, which indicates "Multiple crm_soc_senti_badi implementation," typically arises when there are multiple implementations of the Business Add-In (BAdI) CRM_SOC_SENTI_BADI in the system. This can lead to ambiguity in which implementation should be executed, causing the error.

  Review Implementation Logic:
  
  If you need multiple implementations for different purposes, ensure that they are designed to work together without conflict. You may need to adjust the logic in the implementations to avoid overlaps.
