• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ARUN_MAIN140 - Post Goods Issue not possible for the items that are already assigned. ?

  The SAP error message ARUN_MAIN140 indicates that a Post Goods Issue (PGI) cannot be processed for items that are already assigned. This typically occurs in the context of inventory management and logistics when trying to perform a PGI for items that have already been allocated or assigned to a delivery or another process.
  Causes:
  
  Items Already Assigned: The most common cause is that the items you are trying to post as goods issue are already assigned to a delivery or another document.
  Delivery Status: The delivery might already be in a status that does not allow further changes, such as being partially delivered or fully delivered.
  Stock Type: The stock type of the items (e.g., unrestricted, quality inspection, blocked) may not allow for a PGI.
  Document Flow: There may be inconsistencies in the document flow, such as missing or incomplete preceding documents (like sales orders or deliveries).
  Configuration Issues: There could be configuration settings in the system that prevent the PGI from being processed for certain items.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Item Assignment: Verify if the items are already assigned to a delivery or another document. You can do this by checking the delivery document or the stock overview.
  Review Delivery Status: Ensure that the delivery is in a status that allows for PGI. If the delivery is already fully delivered, you may need to create a new delivery for the remaining items.
  Stock Type Verification: Check the stock type of the items. If they are in a restricted stock type, you may need to move them to unrestricted stock before performing PGI.
  Document Flow Check: Ensure that all preceding documents are complete and correctly processed. If there are any issues, resolve them before attempting PGI again.
  Consult Configuration: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP configuration team to check if there are any specific settings that might be causing this restriction.
