  Cause:
  The error typically arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Duplicate Purchase Order: The purchase order item you are trying to create or modify already exists in the system.
  Incorrect Item Number: There may be a mistake in the item number you are trying to use, leading to a conflict with an existing item.
  Data Entry Error: There could be a data entry error where the same item is being referenced multiple times inadvertently.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the MILL_SD102 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Existing Purchase Orders:
  
  Use transaction codes like ME23N (Display Purchase Order) to check if the purchase order item already exists.
  Look for the specific item number and ensure that it is not already in use.

  Modify or Delete Existing Entry:
  
  If you find that the item already exists and you need to make changes, consider modifying the existing purchase order instead of creating a new one.
  If the existing entry is no longer needed, you may delete it (if permissible) to resolve the conflict.
  
  
  
  Consult with Colleagues:
  
  If you are unsure about the existing purchase orders, consult with colleagues or your procurement department to clarify the situation.
