Review whether the total cumulative delivery order quantity or the

If the release was applied using EDI, proceed as follows:
If the total cumulative delivery order quantity must be corrected,
enter a corresponding delivery order correction in the dialog, and
apply the IDoc afterwards as new.
If the cumulative quantity received by customer must be corrected,
apply the IDoc in the foreground processing as new, and correct the
cumulative quantity received by customer accordingly.
If the release is edited manually, enter a corresponding delivery order
correction beforehand, or, when entering, correct the cumulative
quantity received by customer.
