• Message class: AQQV - SAP Query & QuickViewer

• Message number: 121

• Message text: The list fields were displayed in diff. colors according to the hierarchy

What causes this issue?

You activated hierarchy level coloring.

System Response

The fields of the data source were colored according to their
hierarchical order (nodes of the logical database).

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

The color sequence in the list / tree is
red red
yellow yellow
green green
violet gray
light blue blue
The sequence then repeats with colored background.
This should make it easier to find fields with the same hierarchy level
in order to create hierarchical lists with multiple lines.

How to fix this error?

If you want to create a hierarchical list, position the fields in
different lines of the list according to your hierarchical level.
If you choose the hierarchy button again, the later list is displayed
again in color.
The hierarchical coloring is canceled after a defined number of further
input steps.
