TR281 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: TR - Change and Transport System

• Message number: 281

• Message text: Active version of & & & is not identical with the last version

What causes this issue?

You want to delete an object from an object list.
The active version of this object (&V1& &V2& &V3&) does not agree with
the last version in the version database.
Deleting the object does not automatically cause the last stored
version to be reloaded, so that the changes made in the meantime are
kept.
Since a complete log of the changes by the Change and Transport System
is not possible in this case, the object cannot be deleted.

System Response

A warning is given.

How to fix this error?

Go to the version management and reactivate the last version of the
corresponding object before you delete the entry.
