  The SAP error message /PM0/ABJ_MSG051 indicates that there is an issue with the reactivation type for a specific ppd_id (which typically refers to a planned maintenance order or similar object in the SAP PM module). The message states that the reactivation type is already maintained for the given ppd_id, meaning that the system has detected that the reactivation type has already been set and cannot be changed or re-entered.

  Deleting the existing reactivation type if the business process allows it.
