What causes this issue?

Before the system posts stock level delta updates to the HPM appendix
tables (MARCO1, MARDO1, MCHBO1, MSKAO1, MSLBO1, MSPRO1, MSKUO1, MKOLO1)
a consistency check is performed. This check compares the delta quantity
in the base UoM of the core table and corresponding appendix table. If
these delta quantities are not identical, posting is not possible.

System Response

The system stops processing. This way, inconsistencies are prevented and
do not need to be cleared later.
