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?

Please enter an outline paragraph which has already been defined. The

an outline hierarchy. You can define the individual paragraphs of the
outline hierarchy in descending order only, first the "highest-level"
paragraph, then the next, etc.
Example: An outline comprises three paragraphs, AA,BB, and CC, where AA

paragraphs must then be created in the order AA,BB,CC, where the
paragraph AA is entered as the outline paragraph for all three
paragraphs.
