What causes this issue?

Characteristic &v2& (&v1&) is compounded to characteristic &v4& (&v3&).

level characteristics to the characteristic &v2& (&v1&) are restricted
to a single value at the execution time.

System Response

The planning function could not be executed.

How to fix this error?

Restrict characteristic &v4& (&v3&) in the selections of the planning

characteristics. The current message names in each case the
characteristic that you have to restrict to a single value in order to
execute the function.
