  • What causes this issue?

    Interval values are not allowed. Only absolute values can be entered.
    When you maintain a characteristic, you use the <LS>Interval values
    allowed</> indicator to define whether you can assign intervals as
    values to the characteristic. This indicator is not selected for this
    characteristic.
    Interval values are only allowed for multiple-value characteristics,
    because the system interprets intervals as a series of individual
    values - even if you have set this indicator in the characteristic.

    How to fix this error?

    If you want to use interval values for a multiple-value characteristic,
    select the indicator in the characteristic.
