How To Fix WH068 - Change reason missing in items

WH068 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WH - Messages for store physical inventory (DRS)

• Message number: 068

• Message text: Change reason missing in items

What causes this issue?

You entered a price change date in the header segment. It is therefore
necessary to enter the reason for the price change in all item segments
which follow this header segment. However, the reason for the price
change is missing in every item.

System Response

Because this price change date is entered, the system assumes that this
intermediate document was sent for the purpose of a sales price
revaluation. However, for this revaluation to be carried out, a reason
for the price change is needed in each item. As this is missing, the
system cannot update the intermediate document.

How to fix this error?

If you want to carry out a sales price revaluation, please enter the
price change date and the reason for the price change at header level.
Then post the document again.
If you want to carry out a store physical inventory, please enter
neither a price change date nor a reason for a price change.
After you have made the change, you can repeat posting of the document.
