What causes this issue?

Web Dynpro components do not contain their own text pool. Text symbols
should therefore be stored in the text pool of the assistance class of
the component. However, for component &V1&, no such assistance class was
specified.

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?

In component &V1&, enter an ABAP class as an assistance class. The
assistance class should be derived from &V2&.
You can then access the text symbols in the program text using the
method IF_WD_COMPONENT_ASSISTANCE~GET_TEXT.
Ensure that the text symbols cannot be accessed with the standard syntax
TEXT-xxx!
