How to fix this error?

Transparent matchcodes (update type 'I' or 'K') were replaced with
search helps. Transparent matchcodes will still be displayed for a
transition period, but changes must be made to the corresponding search
help.
The names of the search helps are derived from the matchcodes: e.g. the
search help for ID A of matchcode MAT1 is now MAT1A, and the search
help for matchcode object MAT1 is also MAT1. Search helps for matchcode
IDs in the customer namerange begin with 'Z', e.g. the search help of
ID 0 of matchcode object MAT1 is now ZMAT10.
If you want to make a non-transparent matchcode ID transparent, change
the search help having this name and replace the logical pooled table
with a database view, which you must first create.
