  The SAP error message /IWBEP/CM_MGW_RT114 Action name: '&1' already exists typically occurs in the context of SAP Gateway and OData services. This error indicates that there is an attempt to define an action in an OData service that has already been defined with the same name. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Action Definition: The error arises when you try to create or register an action in an OData service that already has an action with the same name. This can happen if:
  
  You have multiple service implementations that define the same action.
  There is a mistake in the service definition where the same action is inadvertently defined more than once.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Actions: 
  
  Go to the service definition in the SAP Gateway Service Builder (transaction code SEGW).
  Look for the action with the name specified in the error message. If it exists, you may need to modify or remove the duplicate action.
  
  
  
  Rename the Action: 
  
  If you need both actions, consider renaming one of them to ensure that they have unique names.
  
  
  
  Regenerate the Service: 
  
  After making changes, regenerate the service to ensure that the changes are reflected. You can do this by right-clicking on the service in the Service Builder and selecting "Generate".
  
  
  
  Check for Multiple Implementations: 
  
  If you have multiple implementations of the same service, ensure that they do not define the same action. You may need to consolidate or differentiate them.
  
  
  
  Clear Cache: 
  
  Sometimes, caching issues can cause problems. Clear the cache of the OData service using transaction /IWFND/CACHE_CLEANUP.
