¿Cómo arreglar este error?

¿Cómo puede suceder esto?

There are the following versions of a master inspection characteristic:
Version 1 is valid from 1.1.2000 and has already been used:
It was replaced on 1.2.2001 in all applications by version 2.
Version 2 is valid from 1.1.2001: It replaces version 1 from 1.2.2001.
Version 3 is valid from 1.1.2003 and has not yet been used.
If you want to use the deletion function without entering a key date,
only versions 1, 2, and 3 can be selected. Only version 3 can be
deleted.
If you call up the deletion function with key date 1.1.2002, only
versions 1 and 2 can be selected. None of the versions can be deleted.
You can only delete version 1 using archiving.
