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?

Do not use any more TextViews with design "groupTitle". To create a form
header, proceed as follows instead:
Create a UI element of type "SectionHeader". Enter the header in the
"text" property.
Choose the "TransparentContainer" UI element of the form for which you
want to create the header.
Deactivate property "isLayoutContainer" . The container will be now be
displayed not just as a technical container but as a semantic container
as well. This is important for accessibility but has no visual
consequences.
Select the "SectionHeader" that you have created for property
"labeledBy". The "SectionHeader" is thus declared as a header for the
"TransparentContainer", and it is not necessary to specify an
"accessibilityDescription".
<ZH>Note: The SectionHeader is not available in NetWeaver 2004s
(SAP_BASIS 700).</>
