• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMUI/UIAPOMD082 - DB key already assigned ?

  The SAP error message /SCMUI/UIAPOMD082 DB key already assigned typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) or SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM) when there is an attempt to create or modify a database key that is already in use or assigned to another object. This can happen during various operations, such as creating a new planning object or modifying existing data.
  Cause:
  
  
  Duplicate Key Assignment: The error indicates that the database key you are trying to assign is already associated with another object in the system. This could be due to:
  
  An attempt to create a new planning object with a key that already exists.
  A data inconsistency where the system believes the key is still in use.
  A previous transaction that did not complete successfully, leaving the key in a locked or assigned state.
  
  
  
  Data Migration Issues: If data has been migrated from another system or if there have been bulk uploads, it is possible that duplicate keys were introduced.
  
  
  Concurrency Issues: If multiple users or processes are trying to create or modify the same object simultaneously, it can lead to conflicts.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Keys: Verify if the key you are trying to assign is already in use. You can do this by querying the relevant tables in the database or using transaction codes that allow you to view existing objects.
  
  
  Use a Unique Key: If the key is indeed in use, consider using a different, unique key for the new object you are trying to create.
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks or reports to identify any inconsistencies in the database that may be causing the issue. This may involve checking for orphaned records or incomplete transactions.
  
  
  Transaction Rollback: If the error occurred after a failed transaction, you may need to roll back the transaction or clear any locks that may have been left behind.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant notes or patches that may address this specific error. There may be known issues or updates that can resolve the problem.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, consider reaching out to SAP Support for assistance. Provide them with detailed information about the error, including the steps that led to it and any relevant logs.
  
  
  Related Information:

  Database Tables: Understanding the underlying database tables related to planning objects can help you troubleshoot the issue more effectively.
  User Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to create or modify objects in the system, as permission issues can sometimes lead to unexpected errors.
