  The SAP error message CVI_EI058 indicates that there is an attempt to create or update a text entry for a customer, but the text for the specified object already exists. This typically occurs in the context of Customer-Vendor Integration (CVI) when dealing with customer master data.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  You are trying to create or update a text entry for a customer, but the text already exists in the system for the specified text object.
