  The SAP error message FCML004 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of the company code and application in the Financial Contract Management (FCM) module. Specifically, it suggests that there are multiple entries for the same company code and application combination, which is not allowed.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Duplicate Entries: There are multiple entries in the configuration table for the same company code and application. This can happen if the configuration was incorrectly set up or if there were attempts to create multiple entries for the same combination.
  Incorrect Data Entry: During the setup or configuration process, the user may have inadvertently created duplicate records.
  Transport Issues: If configurations were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), duplicates may have been introduced.

  To resolve the FCML004 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Go to the relevant configuration transaction (usually in the SPRO transaction) for Financial Contract Management.
  Navigate to the section where company codes and applications are defined.
  Look for entries that have the same company code and application combination.
  
  
  
  Remove Duplicates:
  
  If you find duplicate entries, you will need to delete or deactivate the unnecessary ones. Ensure that you keep the correct entry that is needed for your business process.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check:
  
  After making changes, perform a consistency check to ensure that there are no other related issues in the configuration.
  
  
  
  Transport Management:
