What causes this issue?

You are changing a procurement alternative that is structurally
connected to other procurement alternatives belonging to a process.
This process could consist of, for example, the process material in
joint production, or procurement alternatives without valuation type
for materials with split valuation.

System Response

Lot sizes, units of measure and apportionment structures (in joint
production) are stored for each process. Consequently, if a procurement
alternative connected by a process to other procurement alternatives is
changed, these changes affect the other procurement alternatives.

How to fix this error?

Check whether the changes are also correct for the other procurement
alternatives.
