What causes this issue?

You have assigned method &V1& to data collection task &V2&. This is not
permitted because the method?s data stream types and document types are
not compatible with the processing type of the task:
If the data collection method contains automatic data collection
procedures only or contains manual entry of reported financial data, you
can choose the <ZK>Per Consolidation Unit</> processing type.
If the data collection method contains automatic data collection
procedures only or contains manual posting of documents, the following
applies:
If the assigned document type uses the posting level <ZK>Adjustments to
Reported Financial Data</> or <ZK>Standardizing Entry</>, you can choose
the <ZK>Per Consolidation Unit</> processing type.
If the assigned document type uses the posting level <ZK>Two-sided
Elimination Entry</>, you can choose the <ZK>Per Consolidation Group</>
processing type.
If the assigned document type uses the posting level <ZK>Reported Data:
Consolidation Group Change</>, <ZK>Standardizing Entry: Consolidation
Group Change</>, <ZK>Two-Sided Elimination: Consolidation Group Change
</>, or <ZK>Consolidation Group-Dependent Posting</>, you can choose the
<ZK>Per Consolidation Group</> processing type.
If the data collection method contains automatic data collection
procedures only or contains manual entry of additional financial data
(but not <ZK>Activity Sorting</>, <ZK>Sequence of Activities</>,
<ZK>Activity Numbers</>, and <ZK>Noncurrent Assets ? Consolidated</>),
you can choose the <ZK>Per Consolidation Unit</> or the <ZK>Per
Consolidation Group</> processing type.
If the data collection method contains manual entry of <ZK>Activity
Sorting</> or manual entry of <ZK>Sequence of Activities</>, you can
choose any processing type.
If the data collection method contains automatic collection of
<ZK>activity sorting</> or automatic collection of <ZK>sequence of
activities</>, you can choose the <ZK>Independent of Consolidation
Unit/Group</> processing type.
If the data collection method contains a load from data stream method
for <ZK>activity numbers</>, you can choose the <ZK>Per Consolidation
Group</> or <ZK>Independent of Consolidation Unit/Group</> processing
type.
If the data collection method contains automatic collection of
<ZK>noncurrent assets ? consolidated</>, you can choose the <ZK>Per
Consolidation Group</> processing type.
When this is being done, method &V1& does not necessarily need to belong
to the <DS:GLOS.3526B791AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>period category</>
currently displayed; it can also belong to a different period category.
