• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/STOCK_UPLOAD077 - Duplicate entry in field 'row' ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/STOCK_UPLOAD077 Duplicate entry in field 'row' typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when you are trying to upload stock data, and there are duplicate entries in the data being processed. This error indicates that the system has detected multiple entries for the same row, which violates the uniqueness constraint expected by the system.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Data: The most common cause of this error is that the data being uploaded contains duplicate entries for the same row. This could happen if the data source (like a spreadsheet or database) has repeated rows or if the data preparation process did not filter out duplicates.
  Incorrect Mapping: If the mapping of fields during the upload process is incorrect, it may lead to the system interpreting multiple entries as duplicates.
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be underlying data integrity issues in the source data that lead to duplicates being generated.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Source Data: Review the data you are trying to upload. Look for duplicate entries in the relevant fields, especially the 'row' field mentioned in the error message. Remove any duplicates before attempting the upload again.
  Data Preparation: Ensure that your data preparation process includes steps to identify and eliminate duplicates. This can be done using data processing tools or scripts that check for unique values.
  Review Mapping: If you are using a data upload tool or program, check the mapping of fields to ensure that they are correctly aligned with the expected structure in SAP EWM.
  Use Unique Identifiers: If applicable, ensure that each entry has a unique identifier that can help distinguish between different records.
  Test with a Subset: If the dataset is large, consider testing the upload with a smaller subset of data to isolate the issue more easily.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP EWM that may help in troubleshooting, such as /SCWM/PRDCT for product master data or /SCWM/GR for goods receipt processes.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message or the stock upload process. SAP Notes often provide specific guidance or patches for known issues.
  Documentation: Review the SAP EWM documentation for guidelines on data uploads and the expected formats to ensure compliance with system requirements.
