• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FSH_SD_COMMON054 - Duplicate variants grouped under the same generic artice in BAdI ?

  The SAP error message FSH_SD_COMMON054 indicates that there are duplicate variants grouped under the same generic article in the context of the BAdI (Business Add-In) implementation. This error typically arises in the SAP Fashion Management (FMS) or SAP S/4HANA Fashion and Vertical Business solutions, where articles (products) can have multiple variants (like size, color, etc.) that are grouped under a generic article.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the presence of multiple variants that are being treated as duplicates under the same generic article. This can happen due to:
  
  Data Entry Errors: Incorrect or duplicate entries in the master data for variants.
  Configuration Issues: Misconfiguration in the variant configuration settings or in the BAdI implementation.
  Inconsistent Data: Variants that have the same characteristics or attributes but are not properly differentiated in the system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Master Data:
  
  Review the master data for the generic article and its variants. Ensure that each variant has unique characteristics and is not duplicated.
  Use transaction codes like MM03 (Display Material) to check the details of the articles and their variants.
  
  
  
  Review BAdI Implementation:
  
  If you have a custom BAdI implementation, review the logic to ensure that it correctly handles the grouping of variants. Make sure that it does not inadvertently create duplicates.
  Check the BAdI implementation for any hard-coded values or logic that may lead to duplicates.
  
  
  
  Data Cleansing:
  
  If duplicates are found, you may need to clean up the data by removing or merging duplicate variants.
  Use transaction codes like SE16N to access the relevant tables and identify duplicates.
