  Modify Existing Entry: If the purpose already exists and you need to make changes, consider updating the existing entry instead of creating a new one.
  
  
  Use a Different Purpose: If you are trying to create a new purpose, ensure that you are using a unique identifier that does not conflict with existing entries.
  
  
  Data Validation: If you are importing data, ensure that your data source is validated to remove duplicates before the import process.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review the relevant SAP documentation or consult with your SAP administrator for specific guidelines on managing entries in the FCC_IC_PURP table.
