How to fix this error?

Contact your system administrator for an analysis and solution to the
problem.

Procedure for System Administrators

The following conditions are required for a successful implementation:
The factory method must exist in the system as an implementation of BAdI
<ZK>Factory for Read Classes of Credential Descriptions</>
(CRD_CRDDESC_READER_FACTORY).
First check whether the credential type &v1& was implemented with the
standard process. This is the case if the credential type has the
<DS:DE.CRDDEFTYPE>definition type</> STD_CRED or STD_AFF. In this case,
the standard implementation CRD_CRDDESC_READER_FACTORY should be used.
Otherwise you should check the implementation that is defined for the
filter value of definition type &v2& .
Also check that <ZH>only one</> active implementation exists for a
filter value.
