What causes this issue?

You have created a version or changed the validity of an existing
version. The period &V1& to &V2& that you have entered causes a gap in
the validity period of the object, however. In Customizing for
versioning, you specified that gaps are not permitted or that they are
permitted but that the system is to output a warning.

System Response

If gaps are not permitted, processing is canceled.
If gaps are permitted, you can enter the period, but the system outputs
this warning.

How to fix this error?

If gaps are not permitted or if you do not want the validity period to
contain a gap, enter a period that follows on from existing versions.
