  The SAP error message DBACCESS006 indicates that multiple values were passed for a field that is expected to hold a single value in a structure. This typically occurs during data processing or when trying to insert or update records in the database.
  Cause:
  
  Data Input Error: The most common cause is that the data being processed contains multiple entries for a field that is defined to accept only a single value. This can happen if the data is incorrectly formatted or if there is a misunderstanding of the data structure.
  Program Logic Error: There may be an issue in the ABAP code or program logic where a loop or a selection is incorrectly handling the data, leading to multiple values being assigned to a single-value field.

  Solution:
  
  Check Input Data: Review the data being passed to ensure that only a single value is being provided for the specified field. If multiple values are being passed, you will need to adjust the data source or the logic that generates this data.

  Consult Documentation: Review the documentation for the specific structure and field to understand its constraints and expected input. This can provide insights into how to properly format the data.
