• Message text: Option &1 not yet created / belongs to a different program

What causes this issue?

During the creation of an implementation for an explicit enhancement
option, the system determned that this option is not yet created or that
it is assigned to a different master program.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Using the navigation function (double-click), check whether the explicit
enhancement option already exists. If it does not yet exist, the source
that contains the explicit enhancement option must be saved again.
During this save operation, the existence of all enhancement options is
checked. If an option does not yet exist, it will be created now.
In the case of includes that are used multiple times, the explicit
enhancement option can be assigned to a master program different from
the one currently selected. In this case, the creation of an enhancement
implementation for this explicit enhancement option is not possible. The
master program to which the explicit enhancement option is assigned is
visible in the display of the explicit enhancement option.
