Message text: Order price quantity cannot be determined automatically
Due to differences between the PO price quantity and the PO quantity in
previously posted goods receipts and invoices, the corresponding PO
price quantity &V4& &V3& for the quantity to be entered would lead to
the PO history becoming inconsistent. This is because the one unit of

surplus. This is not permitted.
The system does not propose a new PO price quantity.
You must change the PO price quantity.
The PO price quantity must be at least &V2& &V3&.
The PO price quantity must be at most &V2& &V3&.
Check the PO history also. It might be the case that an incorrect PO
price quantity was entered during goods receipt or invoice receipt.
