How To Fix ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_RP2621 - Softw. comp. &1 is equivalent to softw. comp. &2 in another system/client

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_RP2 - Object Model Repository (2)

• Message number: 621

• Message text: Softw. comp. &1 is equivalent to softw. comp. &2 in another system/client

What causes this issue?

A software component has an internal key (which is a GUID) and an
external key (its name you can see in the Enterprise Search Modeler),
When you create a new software component or rename an existing software
component the combination of the internal and the external key is stored
on the GTABKEY-server to assure that an software component has the same
internal key in different systems.
During the creation of software component &v1& it was detected that
there is already an according entry on the GTABKEY-server with the same
internal key and the external key &v2&.
This means either that
a software component with the name &v2& exists in at least one other
system/client (e.g. in a lower release) or
that in this or in another system/client a software component with the
name &v2& had existed and was deleted.
Software component &v2& has been renamed from software component &v1&
but is semantically the same.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Please be aware that in case 1. the new software component &v1& is the
same as the other software components named &v2& that exist in other
systems/clients.

  The SAP error message ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_RP2621 indicates that there is a conflict or equivalence issue between software components in different systems or clients. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's Enterprise Search or Object Model, where the system is trying to reconcile or compare software components that are considered equivalent but are actually from different systems or clients.
  Cause:
  
  Software Component Equivalence: The error arises when the system detects that a software component (let's say Component A) in one system is equivalent to another software component (Component B) in a different system or client. This can happen during system upgrades, migrations, or when integrating different SAP systems.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration discrepancies between the systems, leading to the system being unable to determine the correct mapping of software components.
  Data Consistency Issues: Inconsistent or corrupted data in the object model can also lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Software Component Versions: Verify that the software components in both systems are compatible and have the same version. If they are not, consider upgrading or aligning the versions.
  Review Configuration Settings: Ensure that the configuration settings for the software components are consistent across the systems. This may involve checking the settings in the SAP system configuration or customizing.
  Data Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the object model data. This can often be done using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE80 (Object Navigator) to inspect the relevant tables and structures.
  SAP Notes and Support: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error. SAP frequently releases notes that provide fixes or workarounds for known issues.
  Consult Documentation: Review the official SAP documentation for Enterprise Search and Object Model to understand the expected configurations and mappings.
