  Adjust IDoc Processing Logic: If the IDoc is being sent multiple times due to a process error, adjust the logic to ensure that it only sends unique entries. This may involve modifying the sending program or the configuration of the IDoc interface.

  Review Partner Profiles: Ensure that the partner profiles (transaction code WE20) are correctly configured to handle the IDoc types being processed.
