  Adjust Document Dates: If possible, adjust the creation or change date of the purchasing document to fall within the allowed residence time. This may involve changing the document status or re-creating the document if necessary.
  Review Document Status: Ensure that the purchasing document is in a status that allows for changes. If the document is completed or has been processed in a way that restricts further changes, you may need to create a new document.
  Consult with SAP Support: If the issue persists, it may be beneficial to consult with SAP support or your internal SAP team to investigate further. They can provide insights into specific configurations or system behaviors that may be causing the error.
