How To Fix REMICL117 - Notice rule &1 not unique, changed to &2

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: REMICL - Texts for Migration of Classic RE => RE-FX

• Message number: 117

• Message text: Notice rule &1 not unique, changed to &2

What causes this issue?

In RE-FX, the keys for notification rules must be unique, that means
that notification rule &V1& is not allowed to be used as a key for a
deadline regulation and as a period regulation at the same time.
However, this was allowed in Classic RE. If there is such a case of a
notification rule from Classic RE not being unique, then the system
replaces the rule. The system replaces the 12th position with the value
2, so that notification rule &V1& is replaced by notification rule &V2&.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
