Message type: E = Error
Message class: RTP - Message class for retirement plans (US enhancement)
Message number: 021
Message text: There are &1 contingent beneficiaries. Enter 1 primary beneficiary.
Contingent beneficiaries are only relevant in the case that all the
primary beneficiaries have passed away. Associating only contingent
beneficiaries to a retirement plan without having at least one primary
beneficiary has, therefore, little meaning.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
Either enter at least one primary beneficiary in the table, or remove
all the contingent beneficiaries.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
