  • What causes this issue?

    If the PS structure is changed by adding, deleting, or changing fields,
    then this change must also be reflected in the associated screen
    structure. As the PS structure is not included here, but rather is
    copied, the screen structure must be edited accordingly.

    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 you have not yet made any changes to the screen structure, simply
    choose "Generate Code". The screen structure is then deleted and created
    again as a copy of the new PS structure. The other objects of the
    infotype remain unchanged.
    If the screen structure no longer corresponds to the (relevant part of
    the) PS structure, perhaps because you have included new fields, you
    must modify the screen structure manually on the "Screen Structure" tab
    page using "Edit".
