How To Fix TK296 - Only a final asterisk can be used as a generic entry

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: TK - Transport Organizer

• Message number: 296

• Message text: Only a final asterisk can be used as a generic entry

What causes this issue?

You entered a key with an asterisk within the key description. Unlike
an asterisk at the end of an entry, this asterisk will not cause a
wildcard selection.
The system will select all keys that start with:
"&V1&"

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?

If you do not want key "&V1&", enter the asterisk "*" at the end of the
qualified part of the key description.
