How To Fix GR571 - Standard layout & has been changed (regenerate report group)

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GR - Report Writer

• Message number: 571

• Message text: Standard layout & has been changed (regenerate report group)

What causes this issue?

After the last generation of the report group, the standard layout &v1&
has been changed. The current report definition and the generated
Report Writer programs therefore no longer concur.

System Response

The Report Writer refers you to this circumstance every time the report
is executed.

How to fix this error?

In order to make the current report definition available, generate the
report group. This takes place either automatically at the start of the
selection (as long as the indicator 'Do not generate automatically' is
not set) or it must be carried out manually using the Report Writer
generation function.
Caution: During the generation process, existing data extracts for the
report group are deleted for technical reasons since your data structure
is reconciled on the outdated generated programs.
If you still need the existing data extracts and rebuilding them would
be too time-consuming, ignore this message.
