Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRSFEC_KEY_MAP_SEQ009 - Already an entry for INFTY &1, SUBTY &2, BEGDA &3 in mapping table. ?

  The SAP error message HRSFEC_KEY_MAP_SEQ009 indicates that there is already an existing entry in the mapping table for the specified infotype (INFTY), subtype (SUBTY), and validity date (BEGDA). This error typically occurs during the process of data migration or when trying to create a new entry in the mapping table that conflicts with an existing one.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Entry: The most common cause of this error is that there is already a record in the mapping table for the same infotype, subtype, and begin date. This can happen if the data migration process is attempting to insert a record that already exists.
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be issues with the data being imported or processed, leading to attempts to create duplicate entries.
  Configuration Errors: Incorrect configuration settings in the mapping table or related processes may lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Entries: 
  
  Use transaction codes like SE16 or SE11 to view the mapping table (usually a custom table or a standard SAP table related to the infotype). Look for existing entries with the same INFTY, SUBTY, and BEGDA.
  If you find a duplicate entry, you may need to decide whether to update the existing entry or delete it if it is no longer needed.
  
  
  
  Data Validation:
  
  Ensure that the data being processed does not contain duplicates. Validate the data before attempting to insert it into the mapping table.
  If you are migrating data, check the source data for duplicates and clean it up before migration.
  
  
  
  Adjust Mapping Logic:
  
  If the mapping logic is causing the issue, review the logic to ensure it correctly handles existing entries. You may need to implement checks to prevent attempts to insert duplicates.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review any relevant SAP documentation or notes related to the specific infotype and mapping table to understand the expected behavior and constraints.
  
  
  
  Error Handling:
  
  Implement error handling in your data processing logic to gracefully handle situations where duplicates are detected, possibly logging the issue for further investigation.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Infotypes: Infotypes are data structures in SAP that store employee-related information. Each infotype has a unique identifier (INFTY).
  Subtypes: Subtypes are used to further categorize infotypes. They provide additional granularity for the data stored.
  Mapping Tables: These tables are used to map data from one format or structure to another, often used during data migration or integration processes.
  
  If the issue persists after checking for duplicates and validating the data, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP Notes for more specific guidance related to your system configuration.
