Symptom
When trying to update suppliers state details via mass data maintenance you receive the below error:
"Address with GUID "XYZ" already exists".
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
Go to Mass Data Maintenance work center.
Select "Choose" button from Source FIle and select the csv file which I have attached
Select "Addresses" from the dropdown list belongs to "Import Data to Tab".
Select Upload button, It will validate the data and Once validation done then,
Execute Data Import Immediately.
Error occurs
"Address with GUID "XYZ" already exists"
Cause
The main problem is because the address UUID does not correspond to the supplier.
For example: Supplier "XYZ"
Address UUID As per file - 00163EC0D8851EEBB6B277B4EF444B86
Address UUID As per Actual Data - 00163EC0D8851EEBB6B277B4EF446B86
This is the reason behind the backend error message for address is already existing.
Resolution
Kindly re-validate the address UUID in the file and try for mass data Maintenance.
