• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CX - Nachrichten für Konfigurationsprozess

• Message number: 249

• Message text: Value assignment alternative &1 table &2 used in object dependencies

What causes this issue?

You want to change the interface for table access. You want to change a
characteristic from a data field to a key field for value assignment
alternative &V1&, or the other way round.

System Response

The system checks whether the table is used in released constraints or
actions. If it is, you cannot make any changes.
Changes to key fields and data fields are not relevant to preconditions
or selection conditions.

How to fix this error?

If you set the status of the dependencies (constraints or actions) to
