How to fix this error?

If you use a control key for which the indicator <ZH>Service</> is
active, you can extend the <DS:GLOS.operation>operation</> to include
<GL:service_specifications>service specifications</>.
If you want to change the quantity specifications you must change this
in the service specification because the system does not support the
global quantity change made in the service specification using the
operation's execution factor.

which the indicator <ZH>Service</> is inactive.
