Message type: E = Error
Message class: MDG_MDF - Master Data: Messages
Message number: 140
Message text: Field &1 does not exist; see long text
Field &v1& is needed but is not registered. Possible causes:
The registration of your data basis is obsolete. There was a global
change since the last save that is not yet reflected, for example:
In a different data basis, the &V1& field was assigned globally as a
basic characteristic to a characteristic M. Field &V1& is now needed in
all data bases that use the characteristic M.
A recent change in the program logic or in the role definition requires
that the &v1& field is registered.
Programmming error: The system should have already registered the &V1&
field the last time your application area was saved. Or the field is
actually not allowed to be used at this position (call error).
Processing terminates.
Contact your system administrator.
You can try to solve the problem by regenerating the data basis, as the
system corrects the registration of the required fields as necessary. To
do this use report <DS:REPN.UGMD_GEN_AREAID>UGMD_GEN_AREA</>. If
regeneration does not help solve the problem and it recurs, contact SAP.
Application area: &v2& / &v3&
