    issued. This error message is issued when the material of the quantity
    that has been confirmed in the order is not available during delivery
    creation.
    Causes
    1. Availability checking rule in the order is not as comprehensive as
    in the delivery (e.g. with purchase requisitions in the order, no
    purchase requisitions in the delivery)
    2. Regarding the material, there are orders in which no requirements
    are transmitted. If these orders are delivered, they may take away
    confirmed quantities from other orders under certain circumstances.
    3. In Materials Management, withdrawals have taken place (e.g.
    scrapping, inventory difference...)

    How to fix this error?

    1. Check which reasons apply and, if necessary, correct it.
    2. Rescheduling, if necessary (only if 'Quantity/Date' is not fixed in
    the order). Note during rescheduling that the program is a long-running
    transaction and should only be carried out as a background job.

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