System Response

Accessibility Check
a) The "accessibility description", which serves as a descriptive
property in place of the header for grouping UI elements (such as group,
tray or table), has not been set.
b) The "accessibility description" can contain additional semantic
information in place of the quick info. In this case, none of these
properties have been set or context-bound.
c) The element is a container whose "isLayoutContainer" property has not
been set.
In addition to the grouping, the container contains semantic information
that should be set in the "accessibility description" property. The
property has not been set, however.

How to fix this error?

a) Either set the accessibility description for the element and bind it
to an appropriate context attribute, or set an appropriate header for
the group element.
Special procedure for tables:
If a grouping element contains a table, only the header for the group
element needs to be set or context-bound.
b) Provide semantic information about the UI element using either the
quick info or the accessibility description.
c) Enter an appropriate text for the container accessibility description
or bind it to an appropriate context attribute.
