This typically occurs in the context of warehouse management processes, where the stock levels or statuses may have been altered by another transaction or process, leading to inconsistencies.
  Cause:

  Retry the Transaction: The simplest solution is to retry the transaction after a short wait. This allows the system to refresh the stock situation.
  Check for Concurrent Processes: Investigate if there are any other users or processes that might be affecting the stock situation. You can use transaction codes like SM12 (to check for locks) or SM37 (to check for background jobs) to identify any ongoing processes.
  Review Stock Changes: Use transaction codes like /SCWM/PRDI (to check stock levels) or /SCWM/PRDI (to review stock changes) to understand what changes have occurred.
  System Logs: Check the system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the stock situation changes.
