What causes this issue?

The export mode chosen was 'translation system upgrade'.
For security reasons, this export mode is subject to restrictions.
It was implemented with the purpose of ensuring that no parts of
the translated language(s) are lost when upgrading a translation system
using the 'Repository switch method'.
The following requirements must be met:
- The languages to be exported must be translated in the system
(see transaction SMLT -> Classify language)
- Table PUTTB must be imported for the planned upgrade
- The field 'Upgrade release' must be filled; the Release entered
must be higher than the system release
Restrictions:
- Only the tables to be swapped in the upgrade are exported
- Compressed format is always used for the export
- The export set can only be imported into a system with the same
name, same machine and same instance number
- This kind of set must not be delivered; import is refused in this
case
This export mode works with the same logic as the 'Complete language'
mode.
The following files are output at file system level:

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
