Help Document

Diagnosis

You use characteristic PPPI_VARIABLE to define a variable that refers to the value of a message characteristic. You must assign the message characteristic to the process instruction directly afterwards.
In process instruction , the message characteristic has, however, been assigned twice. These assignments follow each other immediately. Thus, the first variable does nor refer to a value.

System Response

Procedure

  1. Check whether
    • you need both variables
    • the process instruction contains the corresponding message characteristics
  2. If possible, delete the redundant variable.

    If you do need both variables,

    • move the variables to the position in front of the pertaining message characteristic, or
    • add the message characteristic immediately behind the definition of the respective variables
