  • What causes this issue?

    Item &v3& is part of a predecessor document chain, that is, it refers
    either to a predecessor document<(>,<)> or is a predecessor document
    itself.
    Items of a predecessor document chain are aggregated during processing
    and must therefore have the same quantity unit.
    The system tried to process one or more items of the predecessor
    document chain that has item &v1& as its highest level predecessor
    document. Not all of the processed items of this chain have the same
    quantity unit. Therefore all items that belong to this chain could not
    be processed.

    System Response

    The system cannot process item &v3& for accounting principle &v2&.

    How to fix this error?

    Correct the revenue accounting items of the predecessor document chain
    that have a different quantity unit and process the chain again.
