• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FM_MEASURE112 - Language key &1 is not unique within the text table ?

  The SAP error message FM_MEASURE112 indicates that there is a problem with the uniqueness of a language key in a text table. This typically occurs when there are multiple entries in a text table for the same language key, which violates the requirement for uniqueness.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Entries: The most common cause of this error is that there are duplicate entries for the same language key in the text table. This can happen due to incorrect data entry, data migration issues, or inconsistencies in the data import process.
  Data Consistency Issues: If the data was imported from another system or if there were manual changes made to the text table, it could lead to inconsistencies.
  Configuration Errors: Sometimes, configuration settings in the SAP system may lead to the creation of duplicate entries.
  
  Solution:
  
  Identify Duplicates: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to check the text table associated with the language key. You can run a query to find duplicate entries for the specific language key.
  
  Example SQL query to find duplicates:
  SELECT language_key, COUNT(*)
  FROM your_text_table
  GROUP BY language_key
  HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
  
  
  
  Remove Duplicates: Once you identify the duplicates, you can either delete the extra entries or correct them to ensure that each language key is unique.
  Data Validation: Implement data validation checks to prevent the entry of duplicate language keys in the future.
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings related to the text table to ensure that they are set up correctly and do not allow for duplicate entries.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Text Tables: In SAP, text tables are used to store language-dependent texts. Each entry in a text table typically has a language key that identifies the language of the text.
  Language Keys: Language keys are used in SAP to manage multilingual data. Each language has a unique key (e.g., 'EN' for English, 'DE' for German).
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes like SE11, SE16, and SE78 for managing and viewing data in text tables.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or development team for further investigation and resolution.
