• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message APPL_MM_IV_MODEL013 - Delivered quantity of PO &1 changed by another user from &2 &4 to &3 &4 ?

  The SAP error message APPL_MM_IV_MODEL013 indicates that the delivered quantity of a Purchase Order (PO) has been changed by another user while you were trying to process it. This typically occurs in the context of inventory management and goods receipt processing.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent User Activity: Another user has modified the delivered quantity of the same Purchase Order you are working on. This can happen in environments where multiple users are accessing and updating the same data simultaneously.
  System Locking Mechanism: SAP uses a locking mechanism to prevent data inconsistencies. If one user is editing a PO, other users may receive this error when trying to make changes to the same PO.
  Background Jobs: Sometimes, background jobs or batch processes may also update the PO, leading to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Refresh the Data: Before making any changes, refresh the screen or re-fetch the data for the Purchase Order. This will ensure you are working with the most current information.
  Check for Changes: Review the change log for the Purchase Order to see what changes were made and by whom. This can help you understand the context of the changes.
  Communicate with Users: If you are in a collaborative environment, communicate with other users who may be working on the same Purchase Order to avoid conflicts.
  Retry the Operation: After refreshing the data and ensuring no other user is making conflicting changes, try to perform the operation again.
  Use Transaction Codes: If you are using a specific transaction code, ensure you are using the correct one for the operation you intend to perform.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Common transaction codes related to Purchase Orders include ME21N (Create PO), ME22N (Change PO), and MIGO (Goods Movement).
  Change Logs: You can check the change logs for Purchase Orders using transaction code ME22N and navigating to the "Environment" menu, then selecting "Changes."
  User Locking: SAP has a user locking mechanism that can be monitored through transaction code SM12, where you can see which users are currently locking which objects.
  
  If the issue persists, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP Basis or technical support team to investigate further, especially if there are underlying system issues or configuration problems.
