Name of DataSource &1 does not start with standard prefix '&2'

Message type: E = Error

Message class: /SAPAPO/TSM - Messages from Time Series Manager

Message number: 372

Message text: Name of DataSource &1 does not start with standard prefix '&2'



What causes this issue?

The name of DataSource '&V1&' does not have the current predefined
prefix '&V2&' for APO DataSources. As of BW* 3.0 only prefix '&V2&' is
permitted for APO DataSources. This means that you cannot use the
DataSource in a BW 3.0 system (or more recent system). It is also
advisable to update the name of the DataSource for compatibility with
possible future APO release upgrades.

How to fix this error?

generated with the prefix '&V2&' by default.
