• Message class: MH - Maintain Material Master Data (Retail)

• Message number: 306

• Message text: Diff. maint. validity areas of gen. matl displayable only for ref. store

What causes this issue?

On the <LS>Logistics: Store</> screen, you can display differently
maintained areas of validity only for a reference store (general or
distribution-chain-specific) in the case of generic materials.

System Response

The system determines all variants whose logistics data for the
reference store has been maintained differently from the reference
store of the generic material.
<ZH>Note</>
If you display stores maintained differently from the general reference
store, any distribution-chain-specific reference stores are also
displayed since stores of this kind are by nature maintained
differently.

How to fix this error?

Reset the value of the store chosen to the initial value, and then
choose <LS>Differently maintained areas of validity</> again.
