Message text: Could not create pool & in ABAP Dictionary



What causes this issue?

The physical matchcode IDs (update types A, S, and P) for a matchcode
object are stored in a pool. This pool is automatically stored in the
ABAP Dictionary when the matchcode object is generated. The name of the
pool is formed from the prefix M_ and the name of the matchcode object.
In this case, the creation of the pool was not successful - for example,
because another pool already exists with the name chosen as standard.
