How To Fix FDT_CORE089 - &1 with top component &2 cannot use &3 with top component &4

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FDT_CORE - Formula & Derivation Tool: Core

• Message number: 089

• Message text: &1 with top component &2 cannot use &3 with top component &4

What causes this issue?

The system has determined one of the following situations:
Object &v1& is using object &v3&.
You are trying to establish a usage relationship with object &v1& using
object &v3&.
Object &v3& has access level "top component", so that objects with the
same top component can use it. However, the using object &v1& is
assigned to application component &v2&, while the used object &v3& is
assigned to application component &v4&. Since these two application
components have different top components, object &v3& cannot be used by
object &v1&.

How can this happen?

Object,,Application Component
O1,,FI-AA-IS
O2,,CO-PA
Here, O1 cannot use O2 because the top component of both objects differs
(FI versus CO).
Object,,Application Component
O1,,FI-AA-IS
O2,,FI-GL-BA
Here, O1 can use O2 because both objects have the same top component,
FI.

System Response

If the usage relationship has already been saved, object &v1& cannot be
activated. If you are about to establish the usage relationship, the
system prevents you from doing so.

How to fix this error?

To solve the issue, proceed according to either of the following
alternatives:
Create a copy of object &v3& in the same BRFplus application as object
&v1&. Then, create a reference from object &v1& to the copied object.
Raise the access level of object &v3& to "global". However, we do not
recommend this option due to the risk of unwanted side effects.
