• Message text: Field &1 does not actively exist or cannot be used in system &2

What causes this issue?

Your application area uses the field &v1&. However, this field does
<ZH>not</> actively exist in the assigned system with RFC destination
&v2&.
You may have inadvertantly selected field &v1& ; that is, the system may
have also automatically registered field &v1& because it is referenced
by another registered field (for example, due to compounding or because
it is a basic field or an attribute, or similar).
If &v1& is an ODS object for a combination characteristic, then &v1&
needs to be an <ZH>ODS object</> for direct update.

System Response

If a role with standard-delivery tables is assigned to the field, merely
regard this message as informational. In this case, the system will
treat field &v1& as a local field.
In other cases, this is an error and you cannot save your settings.

How to fix this error?

Change your settings if necessary.
