• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message OIUY6104 - Record not saved due to error in record with same key ?

  The SAP error message OIUY6104, which states "Record not saved due to error in record with same key," typically occurs when there is an attempt to save a record in the system that has a duplicate key or conflicts with an existing record. This can happen in various SAP modules, particularly in those dealing with master data or transactional data.
  Cause:
  
  
  Duplicate Key: The most common cause is that the record you are trying to save has a key (like a unique identifier) that already exists in the database. This could be due to:
  
  Manual entry of the same key.
  Data import processes that attempt to insert records with existing keys.
  System-generated keys that conflict with existing records.
  
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be issues with data integrity, such as:
  
  Incomplete or incorrect data entries that violate constraints.
  Referential integrity issues where related records are not properly linked.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: Sometimes, the configuration of the system may not allow for certain records to coexist, leading to conflicts.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check for Existing Records: Before saving the new record, check the database for existing records with the same key. You can do this by querying the relevant table or using transaction codes that allow you to view existing records.
  
  
  Modify the Key: If you find that the key is indeed a duplicate, consider modifying the key of the new record to ensure it is unique.
  
  
  Data Validation: Ensure that all required fields are filled out correctly and that the data adheres to the expected formats and constraints.
  
  
  Review Configuration: If the issue persists, review the configuration settings related to the data you are trying to save. Ensure that there are no constraints or settings that would prevent the record from being saved.
  
  
  Error Logs: Check the error logs or application logs for more detailed information about the error. This can provide insights into what specifically is causing the conflict.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or support resources for specific guidance related to the module you are working with.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with SAP support for further assistance.
