  SAP Error Message: WZ612 - Conflict at text symbol &
  
  Cause:
  The error WZ612 Conflict at text symbol & occurs during the processing of SAPscript or Smart Forms when there is a conflict or ambiguity related to a text symbol. Text symbols are placeholders or variables used in SAPscript or Smart Forms to represent text elements that can be translated or replaced dynamically.
  Specifically, this error indicates that the system has encountered a conflict or duplicate definition of a text symbol with the same name or identifier. This can happen if:
  
  The same text symbol is defined multiple times in the same or different text elements.
  There is a naming conflict between text symbols in different language versions or text pools.
  The text symbol is used incorrectly or inconsistently in the form or script.
  There is a problem in the transport or import of text symbols causing duplicates.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the WZ612 Conflict at text symbol & error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the conflicting text symbol:
  
  The error message usually shows the name of the conflicting text symbol (represented by &).
  Check the SAPscript or Smart Form where the error occurs and note the text symbol name.
  
  
  
  Check text symbol definitions:
  
  Go to transaction SE71 (SAPscript) or SMARTFORMS (Smart Forms).
  Open the form or script and navigate to the text symbols section.
  Look for duplicate or conflicting entries of the text symbol.
  
  
  
  Check language versions:
  
  If the form is maintained in multiple languages, check if the text symbol is defined differently or duplicated in language-specific text pools.
  Use transaction SE63 (Translation) to review and correct inconsistencies.
  
  
  
  Remove or rename duplicates:
  
  If duplicates exist, remove or rename the conflicting text symbols to ensure uniqueness.
  Make sure that the text symbol is consistently used across all relevant texts.
  
  
  
  Check transport/import logs:
  
  If the error appeared after a transport or system import, verify that the transport did not cause duplicate text symbols.
  Re-import or correct the transport if necessary.
  
  
  
  Test the form/script:
  
  After corrections, test the SAPscript or Smart Form again to confirm the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Text symbols are used in SAPscript and Smart Forms to manage text elements that can be translated or reused.
  Conflicts often arise due to manual editing, transport issues, or inconsistent maintenance across languages.
  Use SAP standard transactions like SE71, SMARTFORMS, and SE63 to maintain and troubleshoot text symbols.
  For complex issues, check SAP Notes or OSS messages related to text symbol conflicts.
  Always ensure proper version management and transport procedures to avoid such conflicts.
