Message text: DataSource &1: Data access using 'Direct Access' not possible
Data access for DataSource &V1& is to be performed using the access
method 'Direct Access'. However, this is only possible with a certain
system status:
Data updates must run in transfer mode 'Full' (UPDMODE = F). In
addition, either the request number has to use the access method 'Direct
Access' (REQUNR = DIRECT_ACCESS) or the data access has to be performed
as a remote call via BW (REMOTE_CALL = X).
The current system status does not meet the prerequisites defined above
and data access is not performed.
Ensure that the data access occurs using an ODP-based query.
If you want to test the data access for DataSource &V1& using the access
method 'Direct Access' via RSA3, you have to set the request ID to
DIRECT_ACCESS and the update mode to F on the initial screen.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
