  SAP Error Message:
  W7020 No posting possible to value-only material &1 in plant &2
  
  Meaning / 
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when you try to post a goods movement (such as a goods receipt, goods issue, or transfer posting) to a value-only material in a specific plant.
  
  Value-only materials are materials that are managed in the system only for valuation purposes but do not have any physical stock.
  These materials are typically used for accounting or valuation reasons, for example, to represent costs or values without tracking physical inventory.
  Since there is no physical stock for these materials, posting physical inventory movements (goods movements) is not allowed.
  The system prevents postings that would affect stock quantities for these materials.
  
  
  When does this happen?
  
  When you try to post a goods movement (e.g., MIGO, MB1A, MB1B, MB1C) for a material flagged as value-only in the material master (plant data).
