where the IDs of the business objects are indicated with warning
messages.

System Response

The reference characteristic value(s) of these business object(s) cannot
be copied to table AUSP, therefore they are skipped.

How to fix this error?

If the reference characteristic values of these business objects are not
necessary to be copied to AUSP, then there is no action required.
Otherwise, the type conversion error(s) should be examined (hint: check
the actual type of the reference characteristic and the actual type of
the referred field in the referred table: they should match). Fix not
matching characteristic types and then run the conversion again.
