  • What causes this issue?

    Screen containers can be used by several screens that may be also be in
    different clients and/or application objects. For this reason, you can
    only delete screen containers if you then re-generate all screens in all
    clients and application objects. However, in the current selection you
    restricted the quantity of screens to be re-generated.

    System Response

    Error message. No re-generation is executed.

    How to fix this error?

    Normally you should not delete generated screen containers. Instead,
    deselect the "Delete screen containers" flag in the selection screen.
    You can now restrict the number of screens to be re-generated by client,
    application object and screen.
    In exceptional cases (inconsistent assignment of screens to screen
    containers) it might be necessary to delete all the screen containers
    that exist in the system, and to re-generate all screens. In such an
    event, select the "Delete screen containers" flag. You are then unable
    to make a selection for the client, application object, and screen,
    meaning that all screens in the system are re-generated.

    Procedure for System Administrators

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