  The SAP error message MDG_BS_ADR001 indicates that there is no active index pool for the specified entity (represented by &1 and &2) when attempting to perform a third-party fuzzy search in the Master Data Governance (MDG) system. This error typically arises in scenarios where the system is trying to utilize fuzzy search capabilities for address data but cannot find the necessary index to perform the search.
  Cause:
  
  Index Pool Not Created: The index pool for the specified entity has not been created or activated. This can happen if the initial setup for fuzzy search has not been completed.
  Index Pool Deactivated: The index pool may have been deactivated or is not currently active.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the MDG settings related to fuzzy search or the specific entity type.
  Data Issues: There may be no data available in the index pool for the specified entity, leading to the inability to perform the search.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Create/Activate Index Pool:
  
  Go to the relevant transaction in SAP (e.g., MDGIMG or MDG_BS_FUZZY).
  Check if the index pool for the specified entity type is created. If not, create it.
  If it exists but is inactive, activate the index pool.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the fuzzy search configuration is correctly set up in the MDG system.
  Verify that the necessary settings for the entity type are correctly configured in the MDG customizing settings.
  
  
  
  Rebuild Index:
  
  If the index pool exists but is empty or not functioning correctly, consider rebuilding the index. This can often resolve issues related to missing or outdated data in the index.
  
  
  
  Data Validation:
  
  Ensure that there is valid data in the system for the entity type you are trying to search. If there is no data, the index pool will not have any entries to search against.
  
  
  
  Check Logs:
  
  Review the application logs or system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.
