What causes this issue?

can be linked to a local selection attribute. In this case, you can
define the navigation attribute as a display attribute if you want to
have such a link.
However, navigation attribute &V2& of characteristic &V1& is neither
selected as a selection attribute, nor linked to a local selection
attribute.

System Response

and cannot be saved.

How to fix this error?

attribute, enter the link in the data basis customizing settings. Make
sure that the local attribute is defined as a selection attribute.
Otherwise, set attribute &V2& of characteristic &V1& as a selection
attribute.
