  • What causes this issue?

    Using characteristic PPPI_VARIABLE you define a variable that refers to
    the value of a message characteristic. You must assign this message
    characteristic to the process instruction immediately afterwards.
    In the process instruction however, an output value has been defined
    immediately after characteristic PPPI_VARIABLE.

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

    Check whether the message characteristic to which the variable is to

    the message characteristic.
    To do so, change the sort numbers of the characteristics.
    If the message characteristic is not included in the process
    instruction, add it immediately after characteristic PPPI_VARIABLE.
