• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_CORE377 - Multi use of identic objects (&1 and &2) in ruleset variables not allowed ?

  The SAP error message FDT_CORE377 indicates that there is a problem with the use of identical objects in ruleset variables within the context of SAP's Flexible Data Import (FDT) framework. This error typically arises when the same object is referenced multiple times in a way that is not allowed by the system's ruleset configuration.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  You have defined a ruleset that includes multiple variables or conditions that reference the same object (e.g., a field, a function, or a data element) more than once.
  The FDT framework does not permit the same object to be used in a way that could lead to ambiguity or conflicts in processing.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the FDT_CORE377 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review the Ruleset Configuration:
  
  Open the ruleset that is causing the error.
  Check the variables and conditions defined in the ruleset for any duplicate references to the same object.
  
  
  
  Remove or Modify Duplicates:
  
  If you find that the same object is being used multiple times, consider whether you can consolidate the logic to use the object only once.
  If the logic requires the same object to be referenced in different contexts, you may need to create separate instances or modify the ruleset to avoid duplication.
  
  
  
  Test the Changes:
  
  After making adjustments, save the ruleset and test it to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the desired functionality is maintained.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the ruleset configuration or how to properly reference objects, refer to the SAP documentation for the Flexible Data Import framework for guidance on best practices.
  
  
  
  Seek Help from SAP Support:
  
  If the issue persists after making changes, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with a colleague who has experience with the FDT framework.
