What causes this issue?

Every Browser Framework component (BFW component such as, input fields
or output fields) in the PI sheet or cockpit has an ID in the HTML
document and this ID refers to the corresponding characteristic in the
control recipe.
Which characteristic the system expects in the control recipe, depends
on the type of BFW component.
You can use the following component types together with the following
characteristics:
BFW Component Type,,Characteristic
Input field,,PPPI_REQUESTED_VALUE
Output field,,PPPI_OUTPUT_CHARACTERISTIC
,,PPPI_OUTPUT_VARIABLE
Executing component-,,PPPI_CALCULATED_VALUE
calculation,,
Executing component-,,PPPI_FUNCTION_NAME
function call,,
In document &V2&, you have used ID &V1& in the BFW component to refer
to a characteristic that is not valid for the component type. The
system expected type &V3&.

How to fix this error?

Check and correct the following entries:
The corresponding characteristic in the control recipe or cockpit
definition
ID &V1& in HTML document &V2&
&HINT&
The ID of the BFW component tells you in which phase and process
instruction you can find the corresponding characteristic in the
process order or cockpit definition.
The ID in the HTML document follows the following syntax:
<LS><phase no.>.<process instruction no.>.<characteristic no.></>
Example:
ID <LS>0010.0180.0020</> refers to the characteristic in line <LS>0020
</> of process instruction <LS>0180</> assigned to phase <LS>0010</>.
