Parameter &1: Only external type string can have lower case value

Message type: E = Error

Message class: STC_CONT_CFG_ENTITY - Technical Configuration Entity Messages

Message number: 201

Message text: Parameter &1: Only external type string can have lower case value



What causes this issue?

The flag "Allow lower case" is set while the external type of the
parameter is not string.
But this flag makes only sense if the external type is string.


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?

Check your parameter definition. Change the flag or the external type.
