• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: SRM_DIS - Messages from the Service Provider for Circulars

• Message number: 025

• Message text: Object already exists in the circular

What causes this issue?

You have tried to insert at least one object into the circular, which
is already a part of the record. Each object can only occur once in the
circular, including attachments. You therefore cannot include an object
as both a circular object and an attachment object.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

First delete the object that you want to insert from the circular, and
then re-insert it at the required position. The object is not
physically deleted, and you can use the "Search" function to find it
again.
