  • What causes this issue?

    You have used field of table &V1& in your transformation, although table
    &V2& is assigned as (one of the) sender parameter(-s) to the transfer
    method parameter &V3& in the Structure Configuration / Knowledge Base.
    There is no 1:1 relation between table &V2& and table &V1& due to one of
    the following reasons:
    Table &V1& has the same or lower data model hierarchy level than table
    &V2&
    Table &V1& belongs to another data model hierarchy branch than table
    &V2&.
    In both cases several &V1& entries could correspond to the same &V2&
    entry.
    This transformation is not valid without further information. You need
    to specify exactly &V1& which entry has to be used as a value source for
    your transformation.

    System Response

    How to fix this error?

    Go to the Structure Configuration / Knowledge Base settings of the
    transfer method parameter &V3& and provide required access path for
    table &V1&
