    View definition error: Forbidden language field in key of view &V1&.
    <ZH>Reason</><AB><ZH>:</></>
    If an entity table and its text table are in a view and you generate a
    maintenance dialog for it, the view maintenance transaction
    automatically fills language-dependent fields in the view with values in
    the logon language of the user.
    The explicit inclusion of a language field can cause problems which are
    not limited to BC Sets.

    System Response

    You cannot put the maintenance view in the BC Set.

    How to fix this error?

    Contact your system administrator or the SAP developer responsible.
    <ZH>Note for the person responsible for the view:</>
    Maintenance views should not contain a language field (see above).
    Change the view in the Dictionary.
    Regenerate the maintenance dialog (SE54).
    <ZH>Note</>:
    It is not an error if the language field is also a key field in the
    primary table.

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