Capital adequacy - capital ratios (CA3): "T1 Capital ratio" in column "Amount" must be reported (C03.00.01.01, SC03.00.01.01, Bank of England check v6294_2_m)

A warning on the capital adequacy - capital ratios (CA3) (C03.00.01.01) and capital adequacy - capital ratios and capital levels for SDDTs (CA3 SDDT) (SC03.00.01.01) templates, in the own funds (PRA001) and own funds for SDDTs (PRA116) returns.

Line4 Check runs it on the own funds (PRA001) and own funds for SDDTs (PRA116) returns, proven on test files, check by check: the same outcome on all six test files of those returns.

The rule in plain words

In Capital adequacy - capital ratios (CA3) (C03.00.01.01): "T1 Capital ratio" in column "Amount" (row 0030, column 0010) must be reported.

This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it. It runs only when your filing indicators mark C03.00.01 as reported.
