  The SAP error message /IAM/UI115 Text type &1 cannot be created twice (see Customizing for issue type &2) typically occurs in the context of the Identity Access Management (IAM) module, particularly when dealing with text types in the user interface.
  Cause:
  This error indicates that there is an attempt to create a text type that already exists in the system. In SAP, text types are used to categorize and manage different types of texts associated with various objects. The error suggests that the text type you are trying to create (denoted by &1) is already defined in the system for the specified issue type (denoted by &2).
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Existing Text Types:
  
  Navigate to the relevant customizing settings in SAP to check the existing text types for the specified issue type.
  Use transaction code SPRO to access the SAP Reference IMG.
  Follow the path: Identity Management -> User Interface -> Define Text Types.

  Modify or Delete Existing Text Type:
  
  If the text type already exists and you need to create a new one, consider modifying the existing text type instead of creating a duplicate.
  If the existing text type is not needed, you may delete it if it is safe to do so.
  
  
  
  Create a Unique Text Type:
  
  If you need to create a new text type, ensure that it has a unique identifier that does not conflict with existing text types.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the SAP documentation or help files related to text types and issue types for additional context and best practices.
