  • What causes this issue?

    There is no entry in table T156S (movement type, quantity/value
    posting) for the simulation scenario defined.
    Accessing of table T156S is carried out in the first instance via the
    movement type &V1& with the indicators for special stock, movement,
    receipt and consumption (&V2&) that define it more precisely. On the
    other hand, accessing also depends on the quantity and value update
    indicators that are stored in table T134W (quantity/value control) for
    the combination plant &V3&/material type &B4& and are displayed on the
    simulation screen.

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    If you have no difficulty in carrying out simulations for movement type
    &V1& with other plant/material combinations, please check the
    <DS:TRANS.OMS2>quantity/value control</> for plant &V3&/material type
    &V4&.
