manually entered.

System Response

If you have not made the Customizing setting that allows you to enter
structure nodes manually, the component is reset or deleted.
Note that with refurbishment orders, the component is not reset and the
structure node is deleted.

How to fix this error?

If you want the structure node to be checked using the master part list,
you must enter equipment.
