SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: SCPR - BC Sets

• Message number: 426

• Message text: The forbidden field &1 in table/view &2 is removed from the BC Set

What causes this issue?

The field '&V1&' (field name '&V3&') of table/view '&V2&', was put in
the BC Set by a previous create procedure.
Field '&V1&' cannot remain in the BC Set, for one of the following
reasons:
There are dependencies between the table/view '&V2&' and other
tables/views, which prevent the field '&V1&' being put in the BC Set.
Its output length is more as 255 characters
It is of type 'STRING' or 'RAWSTRING'
<ZH>Note:</>
If this field remains in the BC Set (i.e. it is not changed and saved),
the system ignores it, so the BC Set field values are incomplete, and
the create/activate BC Sets transactions could be cancelled. In this
case, report the error to SAP.
