This error is related to the configuration of Fiori Launchpad and the target mappings that define how applications are launched.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the following scenarios:
  
  Duplicate Target Mapping: You are trying to create a target mapping with the same ID or name that already exists in the system.
  Transport Issues: If you are transporting configurations from one system to another, there might be conflicts with existing target mappings.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be an attempt to configure a target mapping that is not unique or is incorrectly defined.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Existing Target Mappings:
  
  Go to the Fiori Launchpad Designer or the relevant transaction (like /UI2/FLP or /UI2/FLP_CONF) and check the existing target mappings.
  Look for the target mapping with the same name or ID that you are trying to create.
  
  
  
  Modify or Delete Existing Mapping:
  
  If you find a duplicate target mapping, you can either modify it to meet your requirements or delete it if it is no longer needed.
  
  
  
  Use Unique Identifiers:
  
  When creating new target mappings, ensure that the IDs and names are unique to avoid conflicts.
  
  
  
  Transport Management:
  
  If the issue arises during a transport, ensure that the target mapping is not included in the transport request if it already exists in the target system.
  
  
  
  Check for System-Specific Issues:
  
  Sometimes, the issue may be specific to the system configuration. Ensure that the system is properly set up and that there are no inconsistencies in the configuration.
