View for characteristic overview was changed

What causes this issue?

The predefined view from the operation or inspection type has been
changed by the program. This may be due to the following:
In the user master, a recording view is assigned to the user parameter
'QER'. If there is no default value for this user parameter, the
<LS>general</> view (single values and summarized results) is used.
The determined view is marked as <ZH>obsolete</>.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

The user parameter 'QERSMAL' must be initialized to be able to use
<ZH>obsolete</> recording views. You cannot delete the user parameter
from the user master.
