What causes this issue?

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

System Response

The activation of HDI objects comprises three technical HDI calls: <LS>
Status</>, <LS>Get_make_groups</>, and <LS>Make</>.
Objects are activated across requests with the aim of activating as many
objects as possible in HDI.
To achieve this, the system retries the <LS>Make</> call when errors
occur, but skips the objects with errors. The parameter
MAX_NR_ATTEMPTS_HDI_MAKE in the table CTS_HOT_PARAMS can be used to
define the maximum number of activation attempts.
Errors are only logged as errors in logs where the object in question is
part of the request.
