  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    The system has detected that the availability of data dictionary type
    &v1& to which the current data object is bound is controlled by switch
    &v2&. The switch is currently turned on, so the bound dictionary type is
    available.
    The purpose of this message is to make you aware that although the data
    object binding is OK in the current system, it is possible that problems
    arise when the containing application is transported into a system where
    switch &v2& is turned off. In that case, any attempt to use the data
    object will lead to an exception because the underlying data dictionary
    type &v1& is not available in such a system.

    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?

    Make sure that all BRFplus functions using structure &v1& can be called
    only if switch &v3& is on.
