• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message USMD2134 - Entity &2 of type &1 already exists in change request &3 ?

  The SAP error message USMD2134 indicates that there is an attempt to create or modify an entity in a change request, but the entity already exists in that change request. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) when working with change requests for master data entities.
  Cause:
  The error can occur due to several reasons:
  
  Duplicate Entry: The entity you are trying to create or modify is already present in the change request.
  Incorrect Change Request Handling: The change request may not have been properly managed, leading to attempts to add the same entity multiple times.

  Remove Duplicates: If you find that there are duplicates in the change request, remove the unnecessary entries before proceeding.
  
  
  Review Change Request Status: Ensure that the change request is in the correct status for the operation you are trying to perform. If it is in a status that does not allow modifications, you may need to change its status.
