How to fix this error?

Usually, the update lies outside the rebate arrangement validity period.
This message is simply to inform you about this situation and has no
further significance.
It may be, however, that the incoming invoice was assigned to the wrong
period. Please look into the matter (the assignment of business volume
data may not make sense).
The update date determines the period condition record for which the
business volume data is updated. This may be a different period record
to the one used during price determination in the purchase order, for
example purchase order in August (period conditions for August used),
invoice receipt in September (update for September). In the case of
Settlement Management documents (settlement documents, supplier billing
documents), these can be released to Accounting in a different period.
The affected condition record has the (internal) number &V4& and belongs
to rebate arrangement &V3&. Item &V2& of purchasing document &V1& was
processed.
&HINWEIS&
In the case of updates from purchase orders/scheduling agreement, the
delivery date of the schedule line is used as the update date. In the
case of updates from goods receipt or invoice verification, the document
date is used. In the case of Settlement Management documents (settlement
documents, supplier billing documents), the posting date is used.
