Known Causes

4 known causes
⚠️
Duplicate Data Integration
This occurs when external systems attempt to send or create graph vertices with identifiers that already exist within the SAP S/4HANA graph model during data integration or migration processes.
⚠️
Manual Entry Duplication
Users might attempt to manually create a new master data record or graph element that shares a unique identifier with an existing entry, leading to a uniqueness violation.
⚠️
System Configuration Mismatch
Improper configuration of business processes or custom developments might inadvertently try to generate duplicate graph vertices, especially in scenarios involving data replication or unique key generation.
⚠️
Concurrent Process Conflict
Multiple processes or users attempting to create the same unique graph vertex simultaneously can lead to this error if the system's locking or uniqueness checks are not handled robustly.
