  • What causes this issue?

    You tried to set the "Accept error in city file check as warning" flag
    with the function module ADDR_ACCEPT_REG_DATA_ERROR.

    System Response

    This is not possible because the "Dialog allowed in city file check"
    flag was previously set (by the function module
    ADDR_SET_DIALOG_FOR_REG_DATA).
    In this case (dialog allowed) the user is always asked in a dialog box
    whether he or she wants to accept data despite errors. Calling this
    function module would make acceptance of data with errors in dialog
    impossible.

    How to fix this error?

    The flag cannot be set in the dialog case.

    Procedure for System Administrators

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
