• Message number: 367

• Message text: Cannot display changes; no version exists

What causes this issue?

You want to display changes that were made to object &V2& &V3& in
request &V1&. To do this, the system needs the version of the object
that was created before the changes were made. However, this version
does not exist. This is probably because the object was created as a
new object in request &V1&.

System Response

If request &V1& has already been released, the system displays the
version of the object that was created then. If the request has not
been released, the system displays the newest version (the active or
modified version).

How to fix this error?

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