Summary :
SAP Note addresses an issue where updates terminate during VL31 transactions due to overflow in the ETENS sequential number field, creating erroneous EKES records labeled '0000'. This problem, referred to as a DUPREC error, is common during inbound delivery posts and affects ME_CONFIRMATION_MAINTAIN and related functionalities. The note advises reorganizing ETENS numbers in EKES and EKBE tables whenever related errors surface. Two correction reports, ZHIGETENS and ZCORETENS, are provided to facilitate this, preventing terminations by managing ETENS values and correcting erroneous records. Implementation precautions include code modifications and careful handling of update functions to ensure functionality preservation.
