How To Fix DS520 - Title identical, header deleted

DS520 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: DS - Messages for Editing Text Elements in ABAP Programs

• Message number: 520

• Message text: Title identical, header deleted

What causes this issue?

For an existing program, you can define both the report title (text ID
'R') and the page headers (text ID 'T').
If no page headers are defined, the report title is output at
TOP-OF-PAGE. Consequently, it is not necessary to store identical
report and page headers.
If the system detects such a case during text maintenance, the page
headers are deleted.
