  • What causes this issue?

    The system has determined that the ERS procedure is active for the
    vendor in the shipment costs item. This is set in the master record of
    the vendor. If the respective flag is set there, goods receipts can be
    settled without the need for having a separate invoice.

    System Response

    Despite the fact that the ERS procedure is set, it is possible to post
    the invoice manually. However, this means that all further invoices or
    credit memos would also have to be processed manually. Additionally,
    the process would then itself be excluded from the ERS procedure
    because, otherwise, it would be displayed in the log for automatic
    goods receipts settlement as an item that cannot be settled.

    How to fix this error?

    To exclude a process from the ERS procedure, the automatic goods
    receipt posting is executed in online test mode. Here you can select
    the respective process and mark it as "Excluded from ERS".

    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.
