The SAP error message
/ECRS/UI_TD005 Declaration &1 is already saved
typically indicates that there is an attempt to save a declaration that has already been saved in the system. This error is common in scenarios where duplicate entries are not allowed, such as in tax declarations, compliance reports, or similar documents.Cause:
Duplicate Entry: The most common cause is that the declaration you are trying to save has already been saved in the system. This could happen if:
- The user is trying to save the same declaration multiple times.
- There is a misunderstanding about the status of the declaration (e.g., thinking it is in draft when it is already saved).
- A system error or glitch that caused the declaration to be saved without the user’s knowledge.
Session Issues: Sometimes, if multiple sessions are open, one session may save the declaration while another session is still trying to process it.
Data Integrity Checks: The system may have built-in checks to prevent the same declaration from being saved more than once to maintain data integrity.
Solution:
Check Existing Declarations: Before attempting to save, check the existing declarations in the system to confirm whether the declaration has already been saved. You can do this by:
- Navigating to the relevant transaction or report where declarations are listed.
- Searching for the declaration using its unique identifier (e.g., declaration number).
Review Status: If you find that the declaration is already saved, review its status. If it needs to be modified, you may need to use the appropriate transaction to edit or update the existing declaration instead of trying to save it again.
Clear Sessions: If you suspect that multiple sessions are causing the issue, try logging out and logging back in, or closing unnecessary sessions.
Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or user manuals related to the specific module you are working with (e.g., ECRS - Electronic Compliance Reporting System) for any specific guidelines on handling declarations.
Contact Support: If the issue persists and you cannot find a resolution, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with SAP support for further assistance.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
