System Response

This means that the report groups that you already generated are no
longer up-to-date and must therefore be regenerated.
Caution: during generation, the existing data extracts for the report
group are deleted for technical reasons because the data structure of
the extracts is adjusted to the old programs.

How to fix this error?

Recreate the necessary data extracts - if possible, in background
processing.
