• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SDDIC_DDLA_ANNOCHECK031 - No duplicated API state values allowed ('&1') ?

  The SAP error message SDDIC_DDLA_ANNOCHECK031 indicates that there is an issue with duplicated API state values in your data model or configuration. This error typically arises when you are working with APIs or data definitions in SAP, particularly in the context of Data Dictionary or ABAP Dictionary.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when the system detects that there are multiple entries with the same API state value (denoted as &1 in the error message). In SAP, each API state should be unique to avoid conflicts and ensure proper functioning of the application. Duplicated values can lead to ambiguity in processing and can cause unexpected behavior in the application.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify Duplicates: Check the configuration or data model where the API state values are defined. Look for entries that have the same value. You can do this by querying the relevant tables or using transaction codes that allow you to view the definitions.
  
  
  Modify Entries: Once you have identified the duplicates, you need to either:
  
  Change the duplicated values to unique ones.
  Remove the duplicate entries if they are not needed.
  
  
  
  Check Dependencies: Ensure that changing or removing entries does not affect other parts of your application. Review any dependencies or references to the API state values.
  
  
  Test Changes: After making the necessary changes, test the application to ensure that the error is resolved and that the application behaves as expected.
  
  
  Transport Changes: If you are working in a development environment, remember to transport your changes to the quality assurance and production environments as needed.
  
  
  Related Information:
