What causes this issue?

You are using <DS:GLOS.transfer_price>transfer prices</> and have
defined two results analysis versions for multiple valuation views in
addition to the <DS:GLOS.results_analysis_version>results analysis
version</> of the operational <DS:GLOS.valuation_view>valuation
view</>. The results anlaysis versions of the multiple valuation views
depend on the results analysis version of the operational valuation
view.
Version &V1& is a version in the nonoperational valuation view. The
<DS:GLOS.cutoff_period>cutoff period</> of results analysis version
&V1& is transferred from results analysis version &V3& with operational
valuation view if this results analysis version has been maintained.

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