• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCF/CL_MESSAGES_ASN269 - You cannot change the ASN; invoices have already been created for ASN ?

  The SAP error message /SCF/CL_MESSAGES_ASN269 indicates that you are trying to change an Advanced Shipping Notification (ASN) for which invoices have already been created. This is a common scenario in SAP systems where certain documents are locked for changes once subsequent documents (like invoices) have been generated based on them.
