Report &1 cannot be executed (form or field catalog)
Help Document

Diagnosis

After a certain change, report can no longer be used.

The definition of a report presupposes that at least one characteristic can be selected. Certain table fields are classified as characteristics in the field catalog. These characteristics can be used in both the form and the report. If one of these characteristics is unequivocally specified, it is no longer available for the characteristic selection in the report.

The error scenario can have two causes:

  1. If you are dealing with a form report, you have used a form in which all the characteristics of the field catalog are used.
  2. If you are using a basic report, it is due to the setting of the field catalog that no characteristic can be selected.

System Response

Procedure

If case 1) is true, change the form in such a way that at least one characteristic is either not used at all or only as an interval.
Check form

If case 2) is true, change the field catalog in such a way that at least one selectable characteristic is available. Get in touch with the system administrator for this.
