How To Fix SABP_KEY_REDUNDANCY002 - The keys &2 and &1 both have type NON-UNIQUE SORTED

SABP_KEY_REDUNDANCY002 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: SABP_KEY_REDUNDANCY - Superfluous Keys Messages

• Message number: 002

• Message text: The keys &2 and &1 both have type NON-UNIQUE SORTED

What causes this issue?

The table keys &V2& and &V1& are of the type NON-UNIQUE SORTED and the
components of &V1& are an initial part of &V2&. Check whether both keys
are required.
Key &V2& has more components than &V1& and is thus more selective. In
the case of all statements where &V1& is used, &V2& could also be used
(exception: READ/DELETE # WITH TABLE KEY#, where all key components must
be supplied exactly).
INCLUDE INCL_MIGRATION_SCENARIO
Check whether only one of the two keys is or could be used consistently
and whether the other key could be removed.
