What causes this issue?

change the <DS:GLOS.classification>classification</> of the objects
allocated to the class. Some of the objects have been classified with a
<DS:GLOS.change_number>change number</>. This means you must enter a
change number if you want to make any other change that affects the
classification of objects in the class.
You have entered either no change number or a change number that is not
active for object type classification.

How to fix this error?

Use a change number to make your change.
Make sure that the change number is active for classification. To do
this, display the change master record and check the object types.
