What causes this issue?

For repairing inconsistencies between class enhancement metadata and the
generated EIMP include for the runtime, you have the following default
operations at your disposal:
- CREATE_METADATA: Override method is implemented in the EIMP include
and the corresponding design-time metadata should be created.
- DELETE_IMPLEMENTATION: Override method should be deleted in the EIMP
include.
It is not possible to create the metadata because pre/post and override
methods cannot exist simultaneously.
In this case, only the deletion of the override method is possible.
