  Identify the Delivery Confirmation: Determine which delivery confirmation is associated with the shipment. You can do this by checking the shipment details in the SAP system.
  
  
  Reverse the Delivery Confirmation:
  
  Navigate to the transaction code used for reversing delivery confirmations (e.g., VL09 for reversing goods issues).
  Enter the relevant details to find the delivery confirmation that needs to be reversed.
  Execute the reversal process.
  
  
  
  Check Shipment Status: After reversing the delivery confirmation, check the status of the shipment again. It should no longer be in status 6, allowing you to proceed with the necessary changes.
  
  
  Perform Required Actions: Once the delivery confirmation is reversed and the shipment status is updated, you can perform the actions you initially intended to do.
  
  
  Related Information:
