IE012 - Details

• The SAP error message IE012 ("Equipment & already marked for assignment as sub-equipment") typically occurs when you are trying to assign an equipment item to another piece of equipment as a sub-equipment, but the system indicates that the equipment you are trying to assign is already marked as a sub-equipment for another parent equipment.
