unchanged.

How to fix this error?

You have the following options to transfer the value of the component

If no values are required in the NEEDED_DBSYS attribute, delete the
values in the PPMS. Then carry out the relevant activity again in the

In contrast, if values are to be transferred from the PPMS, define and
save these in the PPMS. Then register the package again in the SDA with
the "Change Attributes" option.
