How To Fix PAK200 - Superpackage &1 not allowed due to switches with varying assignments

PAK200 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: PAK - Package API / Package Tools

• Message number: 200

• Message text: Superpackage &1 not allowed due to switches with varying assignments

What causes this issue?

The new superpackage &V1& cannot be assigned due to switches with
varying assignments.
The previous superpackage &V3& is assigned to switch &V2&.
Package &V1& is assigned to switch &V4&.
If switch &V2& is activated and switch &V4& is deactivated, a change to
the superpackage would result in deactivation of all switchable objects
of the current package as well as its subpackages.
This is a completely incompatible change that is not supported,
particularly when transporting the package change.
Using the transaction <DS:TRAN.SFW_BROWSER>Switch Framework Browser</>,
you can display the switched objects. Use the search function in the
transaction to locate the package or the switches.

System Response

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

How to fix this error?

If it is absolutely imperative that the superpackage assignment be
changed, perform the following changes first before you execute this new
assignment:
Change switch &V4& in such a way that it references the package to be
reassigned.
If switch &V4& cannot be changed: Define a new switch that references
the package to be reassigned. Enter for this switch all the business
functions that switch &V4& depends on.
If there are no switchable objects in the package hierarchy yet, the
change to the superpackage is non-critical and the superpackage can be
changed by a user with structure package authorization.
