SAP Message RH211 - Node [&1]: Leaf '&3' already exists as child of node &2

Diagnosis
The nodes NODEID = [&V1&] have the same node names NODENAME = '&V3&'.This is not allowed because both nodes are leaves and are child nodes ofthe same parent node NODEID = &V2&.
Note that a maximum of 50 characters is available for message variables.The node name NODENAME ='&V3&' might not be displayed in its fulllength.

Procedure
Try to localize the problem. If the hierarchy is loaded from an SAPsource system, you can check whether the extracted data is correct byexecuting transaction RSA3 in the source system. If necessary, check ifthe data is modified with a user exit. If the hierarchy is loaded from afile, check the contents of this file. The problem might also be due toan error in the transfer rules or in the transformation.
You can identify the two duplicate nodes from the values for the node IDNODEID = [&V1&].
The problem can be caused by identical nodes delivered more than oncefrom the source. It is also possible that incorrect values forparameters such as the node name NODENAME or validity period [DATEFROM,DATETO] are the cause of the problem.
First check if the value for node name NODENAME = " is correct. Thenode name consists of the characteristic value for the hierarchy basiccharacteristic and the characteristic values of all the characteristicscompounded to this characteristic. Errors creating the node name oftenresult in duplicate nodes. This problem also occurs if the node names ofall nodes are initial.
If the structure of the hierarchy is defined as time-dependent, the timevalidity of a node can be restricted with the fields DATEFROM andDATETO. Duplicate nodes generally do not occur if the validity intervalsof two nodes do not overlap in time. In this case check if the fieldsDATEFROM and DATETO are correctly filled.
