What causes this issue?

The role &V3& is assigned to characteristic &V2& in
<DS:GLOS.3C14A7065A82D511B1250008C784EFB1>data basis</> &V1&.
Characteristics with this role must be linked to exactly one
characteristic with the role &V4& in such a way that their hierarchy
structure is identical (except for assignments from &V4& to &V3&). From
a technical standpoint, this link is missing for characteristic &V2&.

How to fix this error?

To continue working in the current consolidation area, first you need to
restore the missing link. You can do this by checking and backing up
data basis &V1&.
To be able to maintain the data basis, either start the workbench in a
consolidation area that uses a different data basis, or start the
workbench without a consolidation area at all. (In the latter case, you
can only maintain the data basis and the consolidation area.)
If you want to change the consolidation area in order to start the
ordinary workbench, click on <DS:TRAN.UCMP0>this link</>.
If you want to start the limited workbench without a consolidation area,
click on <DS:TRAN.UCWB02>this link</>.
