  Typical Causes:
  
  The inbound IDoc contains confirmation data that cannot be processed due to missing or inconsistent data.
  The delivery or shipment referenced in the confirmation does not exist or is not in the expected status.

  Check the IDoc Status and Data:

  Verify the segments and data in the IDoc, especially the delivery number, item numbers, and confirmation quantities.
  Check for any syntax or data errors in the IDoc.
  
  
  
  Verify Delivery or Shipment Existence:
  
  Confirm that the delivery or shipment number referenced in the IDoc exists in the system.
  Use transactions like VL03N (Display Outbound Delivery) or LT23 (Display Transfer Order) to check the document status.
  
  
  
  Check Confirmation Profile and Settings:
  
  Review the confirmation profile settings in SPRO under Logistics Execution ? Shipping ? Deliveries ? Confirmations.
  Ensure that the confirmation profile assigned to the delivery type or shipping point is correct.
  Check partner profiles in WE20 for inbound parameters and message types.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the IDoc:
  
  If the IDoc is in error status, correct the underlying issue and reprocess it using BD87 or manually trigger inbound processing.
