  The SAP error message FIN_RE_ABAP_ENG107 with the description "Parameter name & is not unique" typically occurs in the context of ABAP programming or when dealing with function modules, methods, or reports that involve parameters. This error indicates that there is a naming conflict where a parameter name is not unique within the scope of the program or function module.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Parameter Names: The most common cause of this error is that there are two or more parameters defined with the same name in the same context (e.g., in a function module, method, or report).
  Inconsistent Naming: If you are using a parameter name that is already defined in the global scope or in the interface of a method, it can lead to this error.
  Inclusion of Multiple Includes: If your program includes multiple include files that define parameters, there may be a conflict if the same parameter name is used in more than one include.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Parameter Definitions: Review the parameter definitions in your function module, method, or report. Ensure that all parameter names are unique within the same scope.
  Rename Parameters: If you find duplicate parameter names, rename them to ensure uniqueness. This may involve changing the name of one or more parameters to something more descriptive or specific.
  Review Includes: If your program uses includes, check each include for parameter definitions and ensure that there are no conflicts.
  Use Unique Naming Conventions: Adopt a naming convention that reduces the likelihood of conflicts, such as prefixing parameter names with a specific identifier related to the function or module.
  Check for Global Variables: If you are using global variables or types, ensure that they do not conflict with local parameter names.
  
  Related Information:
  
  ABAP Development Guidelines: Familiarize yourself with best practices for naming conventions in ABAP to avoid such conflicts in the future.
