This error indicates that you need to select an outbound plug for a specific view, which is necessary for defining how the application navigates from one view to another.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  You are trying to navigate from a view that does not have an outbound plug defined.
  The navigation logic is incomplete or incorrectly configured.
  The view you are working with is not properly set up to handle the navigation to another view.

  Check the View Configuration:
  
  Open the Web Dynpro component in the SAP Web Dynpro ABAP Workbench.

  Define the navigation target (the view you want to navigate to).
  
  
  
  
  
  Check Navigation Logic:
  
  Ensure that the navigation logic in your application is correctly set up to call the outbound plug.
  Verify that the event or action that triggers the navigation is correctly linked to the outbound plug.
