How To Fix VBDRV079 - Derivation was not saved - error during late lock for &1, &2, &3

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: VBDRV - Derivation of Batch Characteristics

• Message number: 079

• Message text: Derivation was not saved - error during late lock for &1, &2, &3

What causes this issue?

The shipping approval runs using the "Late Lock" option. This means
that none of the sender batches are locked while you are checking the
derivation in the shipping approval. However, to ensure consistent
derivation, the system re-reads the sender batches (with lock) when you
save, and checks to make sure that the values that were sent have not
been changed.
This check failed for sender batch &V1&, &V2&, &V3&.
In other words, this batch either could not be read, could not be
locked, or the values of this batch that were sent were changed.

System Response

The derivation cannot be saved. The receiver batch is not changed.

How to fix this error?

Repeat the shipping approval for the receiver batch in question.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
