• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LS_SHP022 - Delivery &1 contains items with batches and cannot be maintained ?

  The SAP error message LS_SHP022 indicates that there are items in a delivery that are batch-managed, and as a result, the delivery cannot be maintained in the way you are attempting. This typically occurs when you try to change or delete a delivery that contains batch-managed items without properly handling the batch information.
  Cause:
  
  Batch Management: The items in the delivery are batch-managed, meaning they require specific batch numbers for inventory management.
  Delivery Status: The delivery may be in a status that does not allow changes (e.g., it has already been picked, packed, or shipped).
  Incomplete Batch Information: The system may require that all batch information is complete and correctly assigned before allowing changes to the delivery.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Batch Information: Ensure that all items in the delivery have the correct batch information assigned. You can do this by checking the batch numbers in the delivery document.
  Change Delivery Status: If the delivery is in a status that does not allow changes, you may need to reverse or cancel the delivery (if possible) before making any changes.
  Use Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like VL02N (Change Outbound Delivery) to check the delivery and its items. If you need to change batch information, you may need to do it in the batch management screen.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for specific procedures related to batch-managed items and deliveries.
  Batch Determination: If you are trying to create a new delivery or change an existing one, ensure that the batch determination process is correctly set up in your system.
