What causes this issue?

The <LS>Retrieve</> function could not be executed. A possible reason
is that the document was deleted from the resubmission folder. All
resubmissions for the document are deleted at the same time. It is
therefore not helpful to retrieve the document and replace it in the
resubmission folder.
Other situations which can lead to this error message:
The folder from which the document originally comes and from which you
wish to retrieve it has been deleted.
You wish to retrieve the document from the outbox. The office settings
specify a time limit which determines how long a document may remain in
the outbox. The time between the date the document was last changed and
the date retrieval was attempted exceeds this time limit.
You wish to retrieve the document from a shared folder, in which
documents have a defined life-span. The document has exceeded this
life-span.
