3729857 - Group Reporting: Consolidation master data value is being created in accounting, resulting in duplicates

By setting Enable Inputs ON for an additional field (for example ProfitCenter) in configuration step (IMG) SAP S/4HANA for Group Reporting > Master Data > Define Consolidation Master Data Fields, user takes control over accounting master data in Group Reporting.

This means, if user creates master data in Group Reporting, the same master data must not be created in accounting.

If user created the same master data in accounting, which had already existed in Group Reporting, afterwards runtime error ITAB_DUPLICATE_KEY occurs in class CL_FINCS_ADDLMD_UTILITY at statement

==>>      insert value #( fieldname = iv_fieldname superordfieldvalue = iv_superordfieldvalue accounting_data = lt_acctng_records ) into table mt_acctng_data_buffer.

while importing master data in Import Master Data for Consolidation Fields app. The runtime error's description (in t-code ST22) contains the duplicate entry, for example as follows:

The key components of the duplicate entry have the values "{PRCTR;1111111119;XXX1}"
