RU523 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RU - Messages for order completion confirmation

• Message number: 523

• Message text: Dependent goods movement was incorrect

What causes this issue?

The goods movement could not be posted since another goods movement
item is logically linked to it and an error occurred here (dependent
goods movement).
There are dependent goods movement items, for example in the collective
order when a confirmation is created to the last operation. Both a
goods receipt for the confirmed order and a goods issue for the direct
production assembly for the superior order are posted. These postings
can only be carried out together, that means both postings must be
successful.
