What causes this issue

The update of one or more information structures is to be set or has
already been set to V3 posting. Information structure &V2& belongs toapplication &V1&.No open V3 posting entries existed at the time of the change. This can
only be carried out if no open V3 posting entries exist for the V3function modules of application &V1&. Otherwise there is the danger thatopen posting entries are not updated (change from V3 posting) or areupdated twice (change to V3 posting) in the information structure &V2&that is affected by the change.A change from or to V3 posting should therefore only be carried out in a
period in which posting is not carried out after V3 posting has beencarried out (collective run). This also applies to the transport (importand method execution) for a change like this.
