What causes this issue?

You cannot delete a material and then create a material with the same
material number if the corresponding material number has been used in
documents that have been posted with a Portuguese digital signature (in
a Portuguese company code or in a Portuguese organizational unit of a
foreign company code).

System Response

If the system identifies that the material has been used in a document
with a Portuguese digital signature, it prevents the creation.
Note that until you run the report
<DS:RE.SIPT_MASTER_DATA_MIGRATION>Record Customers Used in Invoices
with Dig. Signature (PT)</> <AB>(SIPT_MASTER_DATA_MIGRATION</>), the
system blocks master data changes (including creation) for <ZH>all
materials </>that might be used in a document with a Portuguese digital
signature (that is, materials that are assigned to company codes for
which documents with Portuguese digital signatures can be created).
After you have run the report, master data changes are blocked only if
the material has been used in a document with a Portuguese digital
signature.
