why does program not allow design of single anchor base plate?

"Single anchor construction cannot be used with torsion" is a warning I get when designing a single anchor base plate. However, why does this warning come up when there is no torsion force applied? Due to this warning the program does not provide a solution or check the selected anchor.

Never mind, I was able to answer my own question :). The profile member (angle) was offset from center of plate & anchor, causing the torsion. I ended up removing the profile member and was able to check the anchor with the base plate only.
