  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_ART_DISCONT024 – "The selected items were checked again"
  
  Cause:
  This error message typically occurs in SAP Retail or related modules when there is a discrepancy or conflict detected during the processing of articles/items, often related to discontinuation or status checks. The system performs a validation on selected articles (items) and finds that some of them do not meet the required criteria, such as being discontinued, inactive, or having inconsistent master data.
  In particular, WRF_ART_DISCONT024 is often triggered when the system re-checks the selected articles and finds that some articles are discontinued or flagged in a way that they should not be processed further in the current transaction or operation.
  
  Common Scenarios:
  
  Attempting to create or process sales documents, purchase orders, or promotions involving discontinued articles.
  Running batch jobs or reports that include articles no longer valid or active.
  Article master data inconsistencies where the discontinuation flag is set but the article is still referenced.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Article Status:
  
  Verify the status of the articles involved in the transaction.
  Use transaction codes like MM03 (Display Material) or retail-specific transactions to check if the article is marked as discontinued or inactive.
  
  
  
  Update or Correct Article Master Data:
  
  If the article should no longer be used, remove it from the selection or replace it with an active article.
  If the article is incorrectly marked as discontinued, update the master data to reactivate it.
  
  
  
  Adjust Selection Criteria:
  
  Modify the selection criteria in your transaction or report to exclude discontinued or inactive articles.
  
  
  
  Consult Retail Article Master Data:
  
  In SAP Retail, check the article hierarchy, article status, and discontinuation flags.
  Use transaction WRTV (Article Master) or related retail article maintenance transactions.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing Settings:
  
  Review any custom validations or user exits that might enforce strict checks on article discontinuation.
  Adjust these settings if necessary to align with business requirements.
  
  
  
  Re-run the Process:
  
  After correcting the article data or selection, re-run the transaction or report.
