    You have changed the settings for updating the data for the warehouse
    process for goods receipt / stock placement or customer/store returns.
    Since you want to use the SAP standard tables for the total overview as
    well as for the warehouse processes goods receipt / stock placement and
    customer/store returns, and because these tables are identical, the
    settings for updating must also be identical.

    System Response

    from the warehouse process for goods receipt / stock placement or
    customer/store returns.

    SAP Error Message:
    VO226 - Update setting copied for the complete overview


    1. Cause of the Error

    The message VO226 typically appears in the context of SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) or Logistics Execution (LE) modules when dealing with delivery or billing documents. It indicates that the update settings (such as update flags or update controls) have been copied or applied to the entire overview or document, rather than to individual items or partial sections.

    This message is often informational or a warning rather than a critical error. It informs the user or developer that the update control settings (which determine how and when data is updated in the database) have been applied globally to the entire document overview.

    Possible causes include:

    • Customizing or user exit logic that copies update settings at the overview level.
    • Standard SAP processing where update flags are set for the whole document.
    • User action or program logic that triggers update settings copying for the entire overview.

    2. Solution

    Since VO226 is generally an informational message, it does not usually require correction unless it leads to unexpected behavior.

    Steps to handle or resolve:

    • Check the context: Understand where and why the update settings are being copied. Review the process or program that triggers this message.
    • Review Custom Code: If custom enhancements or user exits are involved, verify that update flags are set correctly and only where necessary.
    • SAP Notes: Search for SAP Notes related to message VO226 for any known issues or patches.
    • Ignore if Informational: If the message does not cause any functional issues, it can be treated as informational and no action is needed.
    • Debugging: If unexpected behavior occurs, debug the program to see why update settings are copied for the complete overview.
