No. This is just a warning to alert the user that we are not checking the punching shear for uplift cases.

Loads in load cases 9 and 10 create an uplift in the foundation, that's why this warning is reported.

This are the load cases I used for the footing design,

Attached is also the file for my foundation design.

As the error says, there is an uplift for a certain column for some load case, that's why the punching shear check is not performed. Make sure that you are performing the design for the load combinations only, but not for primary load cases to avoid the uplift.
