How To Fix RU144 - Confirmation is milestone confirmation - Check goods movements

RU144 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RU - Messages for order completion confirmation

• Message number: 144

• Message text: Confirmation is milestone confirmation - Check goods movements

What causes this issue?

Confirmation &V1&, counter &V2& was entered for a milestone operation.
This means that preceding operations were automatically confirmed at
the same time.
Goods movements were also entered for the confirmed operation
(backflushing/automatic goods receipt). The document for the goods
movements may contain components that are allocated to preceding
operations.
Since a milestone confirmation only creates one document for all
operations concerned, and since confirmations automatically created by
the milestone confirmation may have been cancelled manually, it is not
possible to determine, which goods movements were posted with the
milestone operation.

How to fix this error?

Check, whether the cancellation of confirmation &V1&, counter &V2&
should also cancel all the goods movements posted with the
confirmation.
If individual goods movements should not be canceled, you need to
correct the goods movements list before you save your entries.
