• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI_APPL029 - Data for additional & is matched to new document data ?

  The SAP error message:
  WTADDI_APPL029: Data for additional & is matched to new document data
  typically occurs in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) during the processing of warehouse tasks or documents.
  
  Cause
  This error indicates that the system has detected that the data for an additional field (often a user-defined or custom field) in the warehouse task or document is identical or matches the data in a new document that is being created or processed. Essentially, the system expects the additional data to be unique or different for the new document, but it finds a match with existing data.
  This can happen due to:
  
  Duplicate entries in additional fields that are supposed to be unique.
  Incorrect or missing configuration of additional fields or their validation rules.
  Data inconsistencies caused by custom enhancements or user exits that populate additional fields.
  Attempting to create or post a warehouse document with additional data that conflicts with existing documents.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Additional Field Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of the additional fields involved in the warehouse documents.
  Ensure that the fields are correctly defined and that uniqueness or validation rules are properly set.
  
  
  
  Analyze the Data Being Posted:
  
  Verify the data in the additional fields for the new document.
  Compare it with existing documents to identify duplicates or conflicts.
  
  
  
  Review Custom Code or Enhancements:
  
  If there are user exits, BADIs, or custom programs populating additional fields, check their logic.
  Ensure that they do not inadvertently copy or duplicate data that should be unique.
  
  
  
  Correct the Data:
  
  Modify the data in the new document to ensure it does not match the existing data in the additional fields.
  If duplicates are valid, adjust the configuration to allow duplicates or change the validation logic.
