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?

Specifying an IMG activity has the following advantages:
You can go directly from the comparison in the Scout to the object
maintenance.
If the object is distribution-relevant, a source IMG activity is a
sufficient condition for distributability (and the target activity for
the reverse direction).
If possible, also specify an IMG activity. If there are several
activities for one maintenance view, you can choose one of them. The F4
help refers to the first source or target object in the associated
table. Alternatively, you can go to the remote system and use SM30 ->
Customizing.
