  The SAP error message DDIC_ADT_SQSC002 indicates that there is an attempt to create a HANA procedure that already exists in the database. This error typically occurs when you are trying to deploy or activate a procedure in the SAP HANA database that has the same name as an existing procedure.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Procedure Name: The most common cause is that a procedure with the same name already exists in the specified schema.
  Previous Deployment: If a previous deployment or activation of the procedure was not properly cleaned up, it may still exist in the database.
  Versioning Issues: If you are working with different versions of the same procedure, there might be conflicts.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Procedures:

  Replace <schema_name> and <procedure_name> with the appropriate values.
  
  
  
  Drop the Existing Procedure:

  Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to drop the procedure.
  
  
  
  Rename the New Procedure: 
  
  If you do not want to drop the existing procedure, consider renaming the new procedure to avoid the conflict.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies: 
  
  Before dropping a procedure, check for any dependencies that might be affected by this action.
