This can happen in various scenarios, such as during data migration, configuration, or when trying to add new entries through a transaction.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Entry: The most common cause of this error is that the significance you are trying to create already exists in the FCC_IC_SIG table. This could be due to a previous entry that was not properly deleted or due to an attempt to re-import data that includes existing entries.
