  Cause:
  The error typically arises due to the following reasons:

  Configuration Issues: The configuration settings for the document type may not allow kitting or reverse kitting when the document is in a certain status.
  Incomplete Processing: The delivery document may not have been fully processed or may be in a state that requires further action before kitting can occur.

  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Document Status: Review the status of the delivery document in question. Ensure that it is set to an inactive status that allows for kitting or reverse kitting. You may need to change the status manually if applicable.

  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on the document type and its allowed statuses for kitting operations.
