• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PRA/ONRR_2014018 - Only one Payment/Recoup record can exist for this key ?

  The SAP error message /PRA/ONRR_2014018: Only one Payment/Recoup record can exist for this key typically indicates that there is an attempt to create or update a payment or recoup record in the system, but a record with the same key already exists. This is a common issue in systems where unique constraints are enforced on certain fields to maintain data integrity.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Entry: The most common cause of this error is that there is already a payment or recoup record in the database with the same key (e.g., payment ID, transaction ID, etc.).
  Data Entry Error: There may have been an error in data entry, leading to the creation of a duplicate record.
  System Logic: The logic in the program or transaction may not be correctly handling the creation of new records, leading to attempts to create duplicates.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Records: 
  
  Use transaction codes like SE16 or SE11 to check the relevant database table for existing records that match the key you are trying to create or update.
  Identify if the record already exists and if it is valid.
  
  
  
  Modify or Delete Existing Record:
  
  If the existing record is valid and should remain, you may need to modify your new entry to avoid the conflict.
  If the existing record is incorrect or no longer needed, consider deleting it (ensure you have the necessary permissions and that this action is appropriate).
  
  
  
  Review Input Data:
  
  Ensure that the data you are entering is correct and does not inadvertently create a duplicate.
  Validate the key fields before attempting to create a new record.
