  The SAP error message FKK_ID_XX_SAFT049 indicates that there is a conflict with a combination of data that is already in use within the system. This error typically arises in the context of SAP Convergent Charging or SAP Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA) when trying to create or modify a record that conflicts with existing data.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when you attempt to create or modify a record (such as a contract, invoice, or payment) that has a combination of fields (like customer ID, contract number, or other identifiers) that already exists in the system. This is often due to:

  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:

  Data Cleanup: If you suspect that there are duplicate records that should not exist, you may need to perform a data cleanup. This could involve deleting or archiving old records that are no longer needed.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or help files related to the specific module you are working with to understand the rules governing unique combinations.
