  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 8I330 - Selected quantity is & than the item quantity ?

    The SAP error message 8I330 indicates that the selected quantity for a particular item in a transaction is greater than the available item quantity. This typically occurs in scenarios such as sales orders, deliveries, or inventory management where the system checks the available stock against the quantity being processed.

    Cause:

    The error arises when:

    • The quantity you are trying to process (e.g., in a sales order or delivery) exceeds the quantity that is available in stock.
    • There may be a discrepancy between the stock levels in the system and the actual stock on hand.
    • The item may have been reserved for another order or transaction, reducing the available quantity.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check Available Stock:

      • Use transaction codes like MMBE (Stock Overview) to see the stock levels.
