  Check Existing Vehicles: Before creating a new vehicle entry, check the existing vehicle records in the system to confirm whether the vehicle is already registered. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction or using the appropriate report.
  Use Existing Vehicle: If the vehicle already exists, use the existing record instead of trying to create a new one.
  Correct Data Entry: Ensure that the vehicle details being entered are correct and unique. If there is a need to update an existing vehicle, do so instead of creating a new entry.
  Data Cleanup: If there are duplicate entries that should not exist, consider cleaning up the data by removing or merging duplicates, following your organization's data governance policies.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on managing vehicles in EWM.
