KE787 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KE -

• Message number: 787

• Message text: Field & is not used

What causes this issue?

The field &V1& is no longer used to define summarization levels, because
it is no longer relevant for reporting.
(One reason for this could be that the field is no longer used to
create profitability segments (setting under "Segment level
characteristics")).

System Response

The field was deleted from the definition of the summarization levels.
&HINT&
If the field &V1& was contained in summarization levels which also
contained an asterisk or a fixed value, you need to reactivate those
levels. When you do, all the data in the levels will be lost and
consequently needs to be created again.
Those levels which contained the field in summarized for (characteristic
value = ' ') do not need to be reactivated after deletion of the field.

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