How To Fix EHPRC_CP03366 - Multiple use characteristic &1 mapped; used for all assigned classes

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: EHPRC_CP03 - General Messages

• Message number: 366

• Message text: Multiple use characteristic &1 mapped; used for all assigned classes

What causes this issue?

You have mapped characteristic &V1&. This characteristic is used in
multiple value assignment types (classes).

System Response

This mapping is used for all value assignment types (classes) that
contain characteristic &V1&.

How to fix this error?

Ensure that the mapped characteristic is set up for all target value
assignment types (classes).
Check the <LS>Substitute Properties and Characteristics</> Customizing
activity for a list of unmapped target value assignment types (classes).
If you have mapped any of the listed unmapped value assignment types
(classes) that contain characteristic &V1&, the corresponding mapped
value assignment type must be set up containing the mapped
characteristic.
Example
You map value assignment type <AB>SAP_EHS_1027_001</> to
<AB>ZEHS_1027_001</>, and characteristic <AB>SAP_EHS_1027_001_ACTIVITIES
</> to <AB>ZEHS_1027_001_ACTIVITIES</>. This characteristic is used as
the default in the value assignment types <AB>SAP_EHS_1027_001</> and
<AB>SAP_RCS_CUSEXPSCE</>.
Since the mapping of the characteristic is also valid for value
assignment type <AB>SAP_RCS_CUSEXPSCE</> and you have not mapped this
value assignment type, you cannot save your data (by default, value
assignment type <AB>SAP_RCS_CUSEXPSCE</> does not contain characteristic
<AB>ZEHS_1027_001_ACTIVITIES</>).
To save your data, you must map value assignment type
<AB>SAP_RCS_CUSEXPSCE</> to your own value assignment type,
<AB>ZRCS_CUSEXPSCE</> since this value assignment type contains
characteristic <AB>ZEHS_1027_001_ACTIVITIES</>.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EHPRC_CP03366 - Multiple use characteristic &1 mapped; used for all assigned classes ?

  The SAP error message EHPRC_CP03366 indicates that a characteristic is being used in multiple classes, which can lead to conflicts or inconsistencies in the classification system. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's classification system, particularly in the Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module or similar areas where characteristics are defined for various classes of objects.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  A characteristic is assigned to multiple classes, and the system does not allow this due to the way the classification is set up.
  The characteristic is defined as a "multiple use" characteristic, which means it can be used in more than one class, but it is being used in a way that conflicts with the system's expectations.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Characteristic Assignments:
  
  Check the characteristics that are assigned to the classes in question. Identify if the characteristic is indeed assigned to multiple classes.
  
  
  
  Modify Characteristic Usage:
  
  If the characteristic is not intended to be used in multiple classes, consider removing it from the classes where it is not needed.
  If it is necessary for the characteristic to be used in multiple classes, ensure that it is defined correctly to allow for this.
  
  
  
  Check Class Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of the classes and characteristics in the classification system. Ensure that the settings allow for the intended use of the characteristic.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on how to properly configure characteristics and classes.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, test the configuration to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the classification system behaves as expected.
  
  
  
  Seek Help from SAP Support:
