SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KH - CO-PA Reporting

• Message number: 391

• Message text: Form & was not defined correctly

What causes this issue?

Form &V1& contains the key figure &V2&. This key figure requires that
you specify a fixed value (not initial "#") for the characteristic
&V3& in each element where the key figure &V2& is used.

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

You can specify this value in the general data selection or in the
report itself. If you choose to do the latter, you cannot use the
characteristic &V3& at all in the form.
This rule is not followed in the element "&V4&".

How to fix this error?

Check form &V1&.
If necessary, change the form, save it, and then execute the report
again.
